On many velicles the fuel cap is the cause of the check engine light coming on or in your case the check fuel light. The rubber around the cap becomes to woren out and fumes leak out. This sends a signal to the brain to let you no. If you go to a parts store and buy a new cap the light will go out and the problem will end.
Your vehicle is sensing an atmospheric leak in the evaporative system. Check your fuel cap and make sure the rubber seal is not damaged or missing. Even the tiniest hole or tear can cause this, also not tightening the cap enough, you should hear several clicks when you tighten the cap. If you or someone else has accidentally driven away from the pump with the nozzle still in the fill spout it can deform the metal around the fill spout causing an improper seal. If it is none of these then there is a leak elsewhere in the system should be diagnosed by a qualified technician.
