Check Engine Light
I was just cruising down the road and all the sudden the check engine light came on. 98 coupe with 70,000 miles. The car drove fine and other than the check light I didnt notice anything...Any ideas???
Thanks

Take the car to an Auto Zone or other parts retailer and have them put their OBDII analyzer on it. It will usually tell you what the problem is and if it is minor, they will clear it. It could be something minor like a little water in the gas or an oxygen sensor tripped. Anyway, they can tell you what the code is for, and they usually do it for free.

Or, you could pull the codes from the DIC and post them here. Anytime the MIL is illuminated you will have codes stored. If you don't know how to access them there's a writeup in the TechTips section under IPC codes.

No need to take it any where yet, just follow the instructions and read the code yourself then post up here for help.
