Well after about 100 or so miles my check engine light came on. Could this be from taking the screen out? So i disconnected the battery and it hasn't come on again yet. Did it just need to be reset for the dif. air/fuel mixture?

I've easily put on close to 1000 miles since the install. Beer is my Gatorade. Hooray Beer. '98 "Sport" Pacific Green '98 E0 SVT Silver Frost Pictures
