i have a prbm with my check engine light... i was told it only deals with emissions... and so i changed my cat, got 2.5 in. piping from the cat to the exhaust, and changed the exhaust back to stock... i can drive for awhile, bout 1/3 a mile.. then the light goes on and my rev meter is restricted to about 3300-3400 RPM... what could be the cause of this? any possible problem suggestions is greatly appreciated

 

did u check ur O2 sensor?

 

Pull the code and see what's wrong.

 

Try and reset it. There should be a button underneath your dash that you push and hold and also try to un-do your negative terminal on your battery for about 15 minutes and put it back on

 

no that button is for your maint req. light. Check the manual

 

wherez the O2 sensors located at?

 

Look above your cat, you should have seen it if you changed your cat. What year is your teg anyway?

 

have you ran the codes?

 

i've heard about these things called codes... what r they n where could i find em?

now how is this going to help him find the CEL code

 

get a book and run ur codes and see what it is...my guess it sounds like something is wrong with ur dizzy......i had the same problem with my car....it wont let me go over like 3500rpms....the main shaft in my dizzy had a alot on chipped off teeth...so look into that

 

whew, thanks alot, i've been hella confused these past weeks kuz ignorant people can't really give me at least ideas of what's wrong with my integ... thankz.

 

You can go to Autozone and they can check and see what the check engine light is telling you for free.

 

i heard they could only check OBD1 or OBD2... i have OBD0... =\... know a place where they could do it then?

 

to check it you just get to your ecu and look at the blinking light and count the sequences short blinks are 1s and long blinks are 10s

 

thanks, i'll be back sometime soon with those results
