Prism gas cap problems

Last summer I had a check engine light which was caused by a leaking gas
cap.  To help seal it I put vasoline on the gasket.  Now, during cold
weather I have trouble getting the cap off.  After cleaning the gasket,
what can I put on it to help seal it without causing the removal
problem?

ASSuming you're talking about a rubber seal, silicone grease.  That
said, it might be just as easy to buy a new gas cap from your local
dealer.  (Toyota dealer if your Chevy/Geo dealer is less convenient.)
