they're far from stupid. they usually relate to any type of failures that would cause emission and engine performance to degrade albeit obd1 was quite general and not too indepth.

anyways. there are a bunch of things that could set one off.
i forget what obd1 has in terms of sensors but i believe lean rich conditions, misfires, and any type of sensor opens will set a cel for sure.

Your ECU is located under the carpet on the passenger side of the car. You have to pull back on the carpet to expose the ECU which is brass in color. There is a circular window on the face of it with red LED in it. This LED will blink and this is where you read your code.
To get the LED to blink, you must turn the car to the "ON" position but do not start it. The LED will blink with slow blinks and with fast blinks. If you have four slow and two fast, that is code 42.
