Default RE: Engine Check Light on

Ya know one of the biggest problems with the cars today is the ECM. In my honest opinion the days of the shade tree mechanic are long since gone,providing you haven't been schooled in all the latest technology. With all the sensors and computers on these cars,self diagnosis of a problem becomes nearly impossible. Used to be you could get to just about anything that needed to be replaced. Now and for quite a few years already, it's damn near impossible to even change spark plugs yourself. A check engine light can be a tricky thing but for starters just try tightening your gas cap or changing the air filter. If neither of those work then a qualified mechanic will be ur best bet.
