Heh, I've HAD my CEL on for 6 years!




It's been ON for 6 years?!?!? Good lord, that would drive me bonkers! I started getting itchy after it was on for 6 minutes.




i am with you IRingTwyce, when the cel is on you really should act, like what i would do. but i happen to go to a dealership for something minor and realized the bulb had blown on the cel so it could have been on since i bought the car for all i know!

Mine has been ON for about 1.5 years now.

No matter what I do, I cannot get rid of it. Damn IMRC!

Replaced IMRC (3 times)
UIM/LIM rebuild and clean
2.5L died, replaced with 3L, still same code after swap
Changed IMRC grommets
Changed ECU

Only thing left is wire harness damaged. I finally have a parts car I can get the harness from, but now I need to find the time to swap them.

Mine has been on for years too. It runs good and gets consistently good gas mileage, so screw it...

You guys are "lucky", I guess. If my CEL is on at annual E-check time, I don't pass inspection and get to spend up to $300 to fix it.....

Does anyone know if there were any changes to the upstream O2 sensor from 95 to 98? I just remembered I have a parts car for occasions such as this!
