If youre comfortable doing so, you might limp the car on over to almost any major Auto Parts store and have them read and give you the codes they find.

It could be something like a soleonoid stuck open or things like that, the folks here would be interested to know what the codes are, makes the troubleshooting process much easier.

Oh - forgot to mention in the earlier post - when I restarted the car ALL was normal; including the service engine soon light being off. Thanks for all the help.

Just to confirm, I should have three gallons to perform the flush?

Sea Foam - Drive 50-100 miles - Drain - fill - Drive - Drain - remove filter - replace with new filter - fill (include Lucas additive) - done

I will need 1.5 gal per fill, correct?

Thanks - Doing it today
