What all do I need to do?

I've got a check engine light, and it's throwing these codes.

P1250=??

P1188= Fuel Control (Bank 1 Sensor 1) (***(May not be applicable for Honda / Acura)***)

P1189= Fuel Control (Bank 2 Sensor 1) (***(May not be applicable for Honda / Acura)***)

P0442= Evaporative Emission Control System Leak Detected (small leak)

P1250= ??

The P0442 has came up before, and it's gone away. Guessing I didn't have the gas cap on tight enough, or too tight? Or would I possibly need a new gas cap?

How would I fix the others?

I'll check it tomorrow morning and mess with it. If it doesn't go off at some point, guess I'll order a new cap.
