Hi All!
Well, aftere just 1 1/2 months of owning my 98 LSC, the "CHECK ENGINE" warning light came on yesterdsay. Would appreciate any help from my fellow owners. Symptoms:
Engine ran smooth from a cold start, and then suddenly, after driving for about 5 miles it started to miss intermittently. The warning light didn't come on right away, but after about another two miles it lit up. After another 3 miles, with the engine running smoothly shortly, and then misfiring, the light started blinking. The light would alternate from steady to flashing mode for the next 10 miles when I got to my home.
After letting it sit for about two hours, I went out and started it and the "CHECK ENGINE" light stayed on and it ran smoothly till the engine got a notch below normal running temperature. It then began to start misfiring again.
The has just turned over 78,000 miles and has been perfect. What do I need to do to diagnose the problem? Some kind of diagnostic's analyzer? Can a parts house help me with diagnostic's?
Thanks in advance to all for any help with this problem.... ..Jack..
