My friend just got a 95 max 5spd, he got it off ebay. Couple days later when hes driving it and the check engine light came on. What could be some of the usual problems? The oil and all the fluids are ok. Should i do a diagnostics test or soemthing?

 

Run the codes and get back to us...

Lucky for me my dad works at an auto shop, so I can just drive mine down there every time the CEL comes on and get it professionally done

 

Bro there's nothing professional about it, you just pop off a panel near your accelarator turn a flat head inserted in a screw to the right for 2 seconds, and turn it back count the blinks (long, short) type 'em in the database, VOILA you know what's wrong .

 

I've been getting the CEL (aka SES) on my 99 SE and kept getting bogus codes. Had my mechanic clean my o2 sensor and no more CEL or SES.

Thought that might help.

 

sometimes they mean nothing, my CEL came on yesterday outta nowhere and said my MAF sensor was messed up (thanks again stillenmax!!) but it got cleared and hopefully it wont come back on.

lucky for me my dads a doctor and I can just go down to his office when I get cut and have him put on a bandaid in a very professional manner ... i think if i took my 11 yr old sister out to my car, she could pull the codes

 

lol... My dad wont even let me pull the code myself. I dunno why...

Oh, and Conrad, yer very lucky to have a dad who can put a bandaid on for you. I just when I have to take one off.

 

yeah, and my mom is a nurse and she gives me shots ... she's the best at it (thats why I'm very blessed to have two very knowledgeable people as my parents)

 

Shots are weird... anywho, this is kinda
