Yesterday, after buying the car and filling up, the car wouldn't start until about the 6th time. Check engine light came on several hours later. Checked to make sure gas cap was tight. Took to Autozone and code is P2187. Any suggestions?
SOURCE: service engine soon light on
you need to put it on a computer to find what the code is such as on o2 sensor or a number of other things. once you know the codes you can fix the problem
SOURCE: check engine light came on along with check gas cap
Did u have engine codes scanned? If not, have it done, as it may indicate the problem. Let me know. (most parts stores will scan for codes free) .

this all sounds to me to be a faulty 02 sensor that regulates the fuel air flow mixture to your system it might be possible for the converter to be plugged due to excessive carbon from running rich but i would have a different opinion and further test done before you replace the converter or you might have the same problem soon again ,

the p0302 code gives u a place to start u can have perfect maintainance with ur car but parts wear out ,go bad,or get damaged-- misfire in cylinder 2 can b a spark plug,a bad wire ,injector starting to clog -start with checking the plug and wire
Testimonial: "thank you will do"
SOURCE: Check engine light won't go off
if u bought it a week ago and from a dealer or used car lot bring back and advise of problem almost all dealers now have a limited warranty on used vehicles --if private bought than have scanned at an auto store most [such as auto zone/ advanced auto] scan for free check ur local area the trouble code will give u a start point towards fixing ur problem
