Im not exactly sure what you mean. What codes should I be looking for.
I also have a problem with the idiot lights some times they all come on then go away.

You probably have some faulty wiring. The codes I'm referring to are the codes that the car sends when something is wrong. To check them you need to ground the lil green one prong plug that is located just in front of your leading coil (the one by the battery). Just take a piece of wire and shove it in the plug then ground the wire. Now turn the car to the "on" position and watch for the check engine light to blink. The number of times it blinks is a code. You need to count the blinks; one blink then pause then three quick blinks is a bad pressure sensor for instance. Then it will repeat itself or show a different code. The coresponding problems to go with the codes are somewhere on this forum, can't remember where. But if you check for codes then come back and post; someone will help ya out.
