check engine light

I have a 1990 Z, auto, non-turbo. Noticed my car hesitating/sputtering a bit and the check engine light came on. Looking for ideas of where to start checking or a list of systems/problems that the check engine light pertains to...any help appreciated.

re: check engine light

OK, found a list of codes for check engine light but now looking for instructions on how to find/check for the code that kicked mine off. Found 240zx instructions (pulling off ECU and turning a screw to count blinks) but can't find for 300zx.
Thanks
