I was driving then suddlenly ma check enginw light came on ..couple hours later it when off what could b?..
most likely an o2 sensor, or you had a slight missfire
What should i do just wait til it shows again to run the diagnosis and find out which sensor is it..or what do u guys advice
Mine does that about once a month due to a dirty o2 sensor

I'd say O2 sensor as well. mine's been doing that for a while.
also, if you have an auto parts store like advance auto or auto zone nearby, they do free code checks on the spot.

Would the code show even of the light is off
Mine doesnt show any codes if the lights off

To bad he's got a '95, before obdII. Could be O2 sensor, could also be EGR problem. I had that happen to me where the light would go on and off and that was the code I got from it. Although, the new engine should take care of that!
Werd to yo motha, search n junk to learn how 2 b pull the codes from that b4 obdii car. Aight?
