23432, CHECK ENGINE light warning when its cold out Posted by JohnnyCorona, May-20-02 04:34 AM
any ideas what might be causing this? when my cars been sitting out in the cold (Cali isnt that cold either) it starts kinda rough, one of my belts squels and the check engine light comes on. if i turn the engine off and back on it sounds ok but the check engine light stays on til i unplug the battery. my car is stock except for the intake. the turbo is new (stock also) and the spark plugs, wires, all been changed recently. do i just need new belts maybe?? tia
