Just a guess...Is your gas cap on tight? If it is, maybe try a new gas cap.
Hey, it IS just a guess.

I have done that before, I forget what the code was. Make sure the gas cap is on and reset the ECM. See if it pops back up. I wasted 100 bucks one time to take my truck to the dealer for a check engine soon light, only to tell me I left my gas cap off(Don't ask, I still don't know how or why the light came on for that)
