My gas cap if I recal does not click at all. If it does, then its one light/faint click and at that point, it can no longer be tightened.
My cap does not continuously click upon repeated turning cycles, as it does not continue to turn.
As stated, my cap actually comes to a point where it is tight, it stops, and no longer turns.
However, is there a reason you are assuming the CEL is related to your gas cap, as that may not be the reason for the CEL.

I remember the first time I got gas after I purchased the car, when I went to place the cap on the fuel outlet and twist the cap shut, it abruptly stopped and clicked once, and to me, kind of softly, not that loud, continuous clicking you can hear from about three pump bays away!
I thought to myself..."Man...these guys thought of EVERYTHING!"
