check engine light on...
hello guys how are y'all?
my check engine light came on...brought it to autozone and it said, something about a evaporative emissions vapor leak(big leak) any one of you ever had a problem similar to this...if so can anybody help me please. just got my car 8 months ago and love it. its a '98 sl. no mods, DOHC engine (except for a matrix filter that's all)

Re: check engine light on...
the most common reason is that multiplug off the mass meter comes off near the air filter housing Just check that first.

probably something to do with the evaporation canister, i dont even have mine in my car, i took it out and plugged up the top of the throttle body where it connects to with a vacuum plug.
