Does it mean anything if the check engine light is on for a while, then goes off for a short bit, then goes back on for a while vs. being on all the time?

94 SSEi. No HUD. But...I kinda feel like an idiot (I think) because I was thinking about it after I wrote my post before and realized it was the "check guages" light that was on and that I probably just need gas! Could be voltage b/c the SSEi'* dont have that guage. This one may be easier to fix than I thought. I assume that this light is for the oil, fuel, temp guages and not problems w/ codes and that this would be the service engine soon light. Geez..I just rebuilt my SC and put on a new balancer but can't seem to know why that fuel guage in the red would set off a check guages light!!

Honestly, I started the car up first the first time ever yesterday since it'* my brother-in-laws car I'm fixing. I didn't see anthing on the windshield, so I assume it doesn't have HUD.

what do ya know.... a full tank of gas and no "check guages" light. That was one of the easiest repairs as of yet! I think the real issue was solved with the crank sensor.
Also, there is definately no HUD in this car. It is a 94 SSEi with the normal tape radio in it. No spoiler on back either.
She purrs like a kitten now. Too bad its going back to my brother-in-law then being sold. All that hard work invested...psshhh.
