I'll be the first to admit I know jackshit about cars. I know how to drive. I know how to change the oil and keep the fluids topped off, etc etc etc.

But to actually know what's wrong with a car? Nope, not a chance.

Sooo, I'm driving home from the grocery store and I notice the "Check Engine" light starts to flicker and then go solid. There's no weird noises. No whines or wurrs or whathaveyou. I just had the oil changed.

Seriously? What good is the "check engine" light if you really don't have the money to take it into a shoppe to have it looked at?

Ouch!

You wouldn't also happen to know if the catalytic converter or any of the oxygen senors have been replaced?

voice of experience speaks, eh?

Yes. All too recent, all too expensive experience.
