youve got a problem with the evaporative system. bad gas cap, bad shut off valve at the charcoal canister, something is leaking. could be a bad fuel preesure sensor or level sensor.

normally the the check engine light will come on, if there is a problem with the evaporative system. so that might happen soon too.
