The Service Engine Soon light stays lit all the time. Some odd Computer Code that is saying their is a problem with the computer. Runs and drives like a top. The light has been on so long I am surprised it hasn't burnt out. So I dropped it off at the repair shop next door. Now if I could get the seat re-upholstered while it is down I would be a hero..
BTW I started using Mobil One 5-30 Synthetic at around 40,000 miles. Then I switched back to regular motor oil at around 85,000 miles. No sign of leaks or burning it out the tailpipe but she now uses 1 Quart in between oil changes (3,500 to 4,000 miles.) Valve stem seals maybe..

Get me the code number, or swing it by as I have an ECM for it sitting on the shelf. I can flash that ECM to shut codes and such off, but I don't have all of the stuff here to do custom tunes for gassers(I don't have the money to spend on a wideband O2 sensor that I might use once every 2 years).
