could be a bunch of things, goto autozone or some place with a OB2 scanner and have them check your codes....

Go to autozone or any similar store kragen, etc. and have them scan it for you. If you live in ca this might be difficult, since they just passed a law preventing these stores from doing this. Anyway have them scan it and get the number EXAMPLE: P0300, have them erase it, if its not anything major. If it never pops up again you dont have to worry about it. I would suggest buying a scanner for like $130 then you dont have to drive to the store. You own a BADASS car but now you have to pay to own it. Welcome to the LS1 world. A huge headache, but ITS ****** FUN!!!!!!

Autozone doesn't even offer the OBDII code reader in their loan-a-tool program anymore, so I bought HPTuners
