hey i have a quick question about my check engine light coming on when i'm sitting at a light/
It happens after i've been sitting there for about a minute, the engine will go into a rough idle and the light will come on, but it doesn't happen right when i stop at the light. Is that because i'm venting into atmosphere now? All i have to do to fix it is rev a little higher for a few seconds but i'd rather not have to. could it be a vacuum leak? Or is this what you were talking about with the blow off venting to atmosphere?
