really doesn't change how the engine runs, but the check engine light comes on, stays on for 1-2 seconds, sometimes 7-8 seconds, sometimes10-15 seconds, goes out, comes back on,etc,etc-- no pattern- seems random in frequency, and duration......Any one have an idea?
89 GT conv. 5-spd,stock mass airflow, only mods are Vortech A-trim. (it was doing it BEFORE as well as after the blower install)

Have you tried pulling codes? Might help figure out why the light is coming on.
