Engine Light
Engine Light
Well my engine light just came on while driving home from work. The engine sounds fine and running normal. I just had the timming belt changed 2 weeks prior and oil change, and have been using octane 89 since the change. I am on the second tank. <P>My question is, could the type of gas cause the light to come on? It was on before I bought the car by went away.(tech said it was the ECU cuz the car was sitting for a year)<P><BR>The light has been looked at before and was found just to be faulty. <P>Is it the type of gas or does the computer chip need to be looked at(like my mpv)?<P>Thx in advance <BR>
<BR>-----<BR>ps: if anyone in Ottawa reads this where is a good shop to get parts?

Re: Engine Light
i doubt it's the gas. i use regular by the way and the car runs fine.<BR>the check engine light is a very common problem with our cars. mine has been coming on for over a year and the car runs fine. do a search 'cause there are about a bizillion threads about this subject.<BR>the bottom line is if it bothers you try to find the cause and have it fixed. most of us seem to just live with it.
