Default Check engine

As some of you may know my LT4 became a daily driver for alittle bit. Any way I'm sitting in the drive through at Arby's and look down and my check engine light is on . Look over at the temp and it is at 250 degrees . Park the car and eat, start it up and temp is at 185 and runs fine but check engine light is on. I know you can't diagnos an engine over the internet, but any ideas?

Did you hear the fans running, at that point, both should have been on, and it would have been loud enough to hear?

Get a paperclip and follow the directions for the 96 model year:

Next look up codes that are shown on your dash:

My 96s code cleared up after a fuel filter change. Mechanic said the code was telling him that there was low pressure on one bank of injectors. Easy fix.
