Tastycakes · 03-16-2007, 02:30 AM

Ok on my way to white castle i did a couple of fun launches :) . One of em i got a bit of wheel hop through 1st and none on the chirp to 2nd. I noticed the check engine light blinked like 4-5 times and went off. My scangauge showed no trouble codes.

Did i piss of the detonation sensor or something?
Anyone have this happen to them?
