Check eng code P0171
If I assume correctly, that thread will probably say "Vacuum Leak on Bank 1 Vacuum System".
Quick and easy way to find a vacuum leak is a cheap, easy and fast Smoke Generator. Most auto shops have them.
Course again, I didn't reread the above link, just assume.

Update: My '09 XK has 43K miles with a pretty solid repair history. I purchased it in November 2020 and have only put about 700 miles on it since. It's been on a tender in my garage for the past 5 weeks since I had shoulder surgery and couldn't drive. My wife drove it a couple of times, maybe 15 miles or so, and it was fine.
Yesterday, I started it, idled for 10 minutes and drove around the block before parking it in the garage again. No problems. Today, I started it and thats when the CEL came on. It idles and runs fine. Visual inspection of hoses, etc looks good. Fuel filler cap is tight.
I spoke with my mechanic and he said to clear the code and drive the car. If the CEL comes on again I'll bring it to him for a smoke test. He thinks its just from sitting these past few weeks and the short drive around the block yesterday didn't help.
Thoughts?
