No air,big problems.
You should be able to see light thru the pleats of the filter.Hold it up to a light and check it out. Very easy and important.

Take your car to a parts house like Auto Zone.They can put a hand held gizmo on and tell you what the codes are and what they mean.
You will do it for free.

I replaced the air filter (and..you wouldn't be able to pass any light prior ... after sucking out all the dirt on the sides of the air filter...and getting the oil changed/oil filter replaced... unfortunatlely the "check engine" light pops up rather randomly. Do you think the fuel cleaner might help? I do use premium gasoline...and on my "expert" advise... added full synthentic oil.. ??

You're being kind to offer suggestions.. believe me...I won't tell a soul..about this..

Okay,I'm counting on you.

Fuel injector cleaner could help.

I've seen bad/loose fuel filler caps cause the light to come on too.

I really would get the codes run.From that you will know what is turning the check engine light on.Otherwise we are really guessing and could spend money needlessly.

Auto Zone,O'Reily,etc. can do it real quick and free.Lots of times,if it's simple,they will help out with putting a simple part on.

Would that cause the light to sometimes illuminate..and sometimes not?? I've been watching it...and it seems to come on..aprrox. 3/4 to 1/2 tank of gas..? I know I need to bring it in.. some of it is procrastination on my part.. but otherwise it's lack of time.

It Sure could.
Hints like that are good.

A dealership or other repair shop may not be needed to fix your problem.

Next time the light comes on shut off the engine and go back and remove and then put the gas cap back on good. While you have it off look at the seal/gasket on the cap where it contacts the filler neck.Is it there and in good shape ?

I will do that... and what did you do - prior to taking on the easier way of life?? Alien or Martian -- you've given some really good thougts towards my issue. I really do appreciate your input. I certainly won't tell the 'sisters' how nice you've been... I've already had my share of issues with sick dogs - and robbers... I DON'T need the Sisters at my door.

we really hijacked the game..

Are you worried about them being a bad influence or the neighbors reaction when they see 3 Humpin' Ho Sisters at your front door with their bed rolls tied to their backs ?

They said they are even willing to "babysit".

Actually, I am afraid the boys might mistake the bed rolls for an odd variety of hockey protection and shoot hockey pucks at them.. I would be willing to bet -- that "babysitting" offer would be short.

Life is tough when you're a Ho Sister.
