Help Check engine light! Tue, 23 August 2005 22:04 Go to previous message
Hello, i have a 1G-GTE and drove it to uni this morning (its first big drive, about an hour) Anyway towards the end of the trip i was cruising at 100 and my check engine light turned on, i crapped myself and backed off and within about 10 - 20 secs it turned off. so i started driving again and further down the road it turned on again, and like before it turned off not long after (i think i backed off again). i got off the highway and drove through uni and it was all fine, i then was driving up a hill not driving hard and it turned on again then off not long after.


My oil pressure light and temp gauges were doing what they should so it all looked fine, what could be the cause? and is it safe to drive?

My guess is that possibly when it was tune it was leaned out too much (as the said the leaned it out) and the ratios are good when you hammering it but when your cruising at high revs it goes too lean, would this cause the light to come on? this is a guess and i would like to hear others or opinions on this. more so if it it safe to drive.

Thanks
