SES light again !?

So I just picked my car up from the shop, had a new distributor cap and coil, plugs, wires, thermostat, and water pump put in. I fill it up with 93 octane, put 20 miles on the odometer, and the SES light comes on again. WTF?

If you don't have a scan tool go to AutoZone and they will scan your car for free.

I'd do this first, even though AutoZone scans for free. But I also like to watch people squirm a bit.

I did that. Found out it was just the O2 sensor that we had to wait and see wasn't being tripped before the distributor went out due to the misfire.
