Ok for sum reason my engine light comes on after about 15 minutes of driving, it stays on until I shut of the vehicle, and then does not appear when I start it again. It has done this consistently for a couple weeks. I am planning on going to the shop and get them to read the comp but was wondering if the had happend to anyone else.

I had to put a o2 sensor on mine, it started running rough...
I also changed the map sensor, i thought it might have been causing my light to come on, but it was the o2 sensor...no more problems...
It could be a number of things.....or not much of anything...
Good luck in finding the problem...might want to put it on a computer should show the problem...

You can read abou the codes and how to do the key method here, I just can't remember when they switched to ODBII..

If I remember right the 95's are still ODBI and if so you can check codes without a reader, and if it is ODBII you can goto like Autozone, Advanced Auto and such and they can scan the codes for you and give you a printout of what it says. Much cheaper then paying a shop to do the same thing.
