Keith Depeninding on the mileage, it could be the dreaded O2 sensors. On another note, my new wheels are installed. Pics over here.

Keith, after I had mine done this year I got 2 more CELs and they were both for a vacuum leak. For some reason it kept coming off. Fixed now though. Check that out. If you took it to a dealer to have them fix it and it wasnt that long ago that you did, and this new CEL is related to that they may not charge you for anything, including the checking to see what the CEL is. BUT if it is not related then you would have to pay. BTW, Richard, I did all my steps last weekend and just touched up this morning. The car is now safely in the garage where it will stay until tomorrow.

I didn't take it to a dealership
I took my car to my local mechanic here in London.
for now its gone away. But I do have a long drive up to Dixie tomorrow, so we'll see what happens between now and then.
why now damnit. I'm not working and back in school. haha, I swear if it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all.

So I've spent the better part of the day working on my car and for a show that is supposed to be fun. Funny thing is I feel worse now because of how crappy of condition my car is in. Even for it being relatively clean. Oh well. I don't have time to really do any engine detailing either. It'll be fun to have the worst looking car though I guess.

What time is everyone going to meet there? I am assuming there is an area for the Contours?
