HELP!!!! service engine soon light
recently my service engine soon light went on . it doesent come on all the time but it comes on most of the time . anyone know what it could be . my car has 24 thousand miles and change and seems to run fine. dont want to rush to the dealer , i dont think they will like my NOS dry kit .i was hoping maybe it automaticaly goes on when you hit a certain mileage . ANYONE?

Wait until its on and have it scanned. Sounds like an intermentent problem.With OBDII if a componet is malfunctioning but the problem corrects itself, after a certain # of drive cycles the SES light will turn itself off.
