Default AIC replacement

glad I read all the posts before i started working on my convert. it was running bad missing backfiring, poor idle RPM up and down. I checked a lot of things on the car but no issue were found.
No codes were thrown. I decided to replace the AIC............well the car is running like a champ. Horsepower restored and even idle with good acceleration. I;m a happy camper! went ahead and replaced the O2 sensor since it was cheap.
The only thing I have gong wrong is the coolant light stays lit. even when its cold. I replaced the temp sensor but it didnt help??????

Check the throttle position sensor.

Check for bad spark plug wires. If the conductor is broken it can cause a miss under load.
