Alright, thing is I have no idea when I will be back in my hometown with the tools I'll need... I'm gonna buy some tools I just need to get my first paycheck (new job.) By the yes Goaliemo, the check engine light has been on. Has been since it got passed down to me, that was one of the reasons we took it to the mechanics whom never got it to go away.

I don't off the top of my head, I'll try and run by there after work tomorrow. Depends on the roads.

Definitely safety first. Could be a bad maf sensor.

Alright, well I'm stuck in for today. Roads got much worse over night, due to refreezing. Thankfully, Bass Pro is telling us to be cautious and not to take chances with driving if it seems unsafe.

Just be safe. Cars can be replaced, not lives.

That's exactly my logic, thankfully my new employers take the same approach. Just realized I'm off tomorrow, so if they're open on Sundays I'll be able to take the car down to Auto zone .

disconnect the battery and the computer will reset then you can see if the low power mode comes back
