After a major tune up saturday. Replaced starter a few vacumm lines decarb the ntake manifold,cleaned the EGR and pipe, replace T. body gasket, Spark plugs "NGK R" and finally the fuel filter. It runs great very smooth, but after 15 miles driving the Cel comes ON. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Just go to Autozone, they'll do it for free. They can do 96+ with the simple OBD-II scan tool. They can't do 95 with it since it's OBD-I. Just follow the FAQ and you are set. 2000 SVT #674 13.47 @ 102 - All Motor! It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.
