    Default Check Engine Whore.

    I just got a 1997 Acura 2.5tl and about two days after driving it my check engine light comes on. I tightened up the gas cap and changed the oil and yesterday it decides to come off. Should I still go get it tested to see if there's still a problem? Or just call the car a attention whore.

    If its off then there will not be any codes, but might be in the memory!

    Might just be a weak O2 sensor.....If it comes back on check it out an let me know what the code is an I can help!
