Re: Z24 Engine light
go outside...yes right now....open your fuel door, take ur cap off, put it back on tight, start your car up, presto, lol... Other than that you could always put electrical tape over the light? lol

Re: Z24 Engine light
weird, i drove around without a gas cap for 4 months and my check engine light never came on, but i do know it does not shut off the instant the problem is fixed, if the gas cap was your problem, the light may shut itself off sometime tomorrow.... but he's not kidding, that could very well be your problem

Re: Z24 Engine light
Any car parts/car maintenance store/shop? I'm sure if you ask around a store or even a small repair shop they'll do it for you for free.
