Philadelphia Car Meets
id be down for meeting up this weekend. i get home from school thurs late, throat procedure (hopefully last one) fri and then around all weekend if i dont go hunting. wats everyone elses schedule like?
got a question for yall, dont know if anyone will have a guess bc its so vague but figured id ask.
Okay so its been cold as ***** up here in NY and snowing, havent driven the car much since i dont have snows. its been like 2 weeks almost, driven it around the block, started it up and let er run once. drove the car to campus (2miles) this morning and it was great. tried driving to campus again tonight, and as soon as i turned out of my driveway (before it was even warmed up) and the "service engine soon" light came on.
i have been lazy and am over 1000 miles (i think) past the oil change mark (i know, shut up) but the oil level is right in between the two checks on the dipstick. cap was on tight, no leaking fluids. didnt try boosting it so i dont know if theres a leak. immediately turned around, went home, turned off the car and started it back up. light is still on.
figured this would happen since i was just talking about how reliable the car has been for how old it is now. gona scan it for the code tomorrow afternoon after finals and see what it says, but figured id ask all you evo nuts first just in case its something simple with the cold weather or whatever. thanks guys!
also, chu, what did you ever do with the rpf1s, ill be home this weekend...

going to get the codes ran tomorrow as I already said, but starting to think it has something to do with the 02 sensor and the fact im not running a cat. would the cold weather and not driving have anything to do with it not being able to heat up properly to give a clear reading? i have run a test pipe for over 2 years using the anti-fouler trick, never gotten a SES light yet. not sure what to think. hopefully its something easy so i can drive back and just fix it when im back home.
going to change my oil tomorrow regardless, thats just me being stupid
