i have a 99ls..engine bone stock..and my CEL came on the other day...wasnt driving it hard or anything..totally random..i turned it off then back on..still there..and the next morning as i was driving it, the light went off by itself and hasnt come back for a couple days now..this is the second time this has happened to me...can anyone give me an explanation?? car seems to run just fine.... thanks in advance...

 

pull the code and figure out whats wrong..we cant help you out much until you figure out what code your car is throwing

 

There is a thread in the Integra FAQ thread explaning how to pull the CEL codes.

cool..ill do that today and get back to you guys...thanks..

 

73 random misfire cylinder 3
91 Evaporative Emission Control System insufficient purge flow

these are the codes i pulled....the 73 i have no idea bout, random misfire? is this something serious that i need to look into?...but the 91...could that be like my gas cap not being on tight enough??caus i remember i didnt have a gas cap for a little bit and that made my light come on a while back.. i dont have my CEL on right now...any help is appreciated

 

The random misfire could be a bad spark plug, poorly adjusted valves, bad plug wire, etc. Does the CEL illuminate at low or high RPM?

 

well it came on when i was at round 3-3.5k rpm in 5th...jus normal highway driving...and went off a couple days later..this morning i pushed the car a tad bit..and seemed to run fine...

 

info anyone?

 

anyone????

 

Check that your plug wires are tight. You can also check the spark plugs, wires, and distributor cap and rotor.

 

thanks..will check
