Default Emissions

Saturday I drove to emissions about 60 miles away.
On the way there I filled up my tank, while driving the gas gauge went to empty the bell and gas light dinged but I knew I had gas so I kept going. Then it went back to full, it did this about three times.
I get to emissions everything but the obd2 readiness passed.
I drive home checked all the fuses they were all ok and my husband decided to trip the check engine light via pulling of a sparkplug wire to get a check engine light.
Drove it with the check engine light on to auto zone, they said misfire and low coolest temp.
Put more anti freeze in it, and pluged spark plug wire back in.( ended up driving about 200 miles just around town doing errands)
Drove it about 60 miles round trip to a doctors appt for hubby.
Filled tank again and the same thing with the gas light.
Instantly drove to autozone, no check engine light, but I lied to get them to check it. They can't read my obd2
Are these linked?
What can I check,do now?
