check engine light

ok guys i took a drive to san francisco on sat to visit my parants and to go to my brothers house to install my koni's... right before i get onto the 280.... my check engine light comes on... i pulled over to the parking lot and checked my oil.. it looks clean and good. i then check all the wiring and harnesses to make sure nothing was dislocated.... i start the car again and it goes away.. the car drove fine so i just made my 50 mile trip to sf.. now on sunday i'm out going to my friends kid's birthday party... my check engine light goes on again... this time i was at the gas station getting gas... i decided to put a bottle of octane booster just for the hell of it.... this time the light stayed on for 10 mins then want away again.... could this be my o2 sensor... oooo by the way, i put a bottle of fuel injection cleaner last week on my last tank of gas... any ideas????

The last time my FD did that it was because the wiring for my nock sensor was going bad. The damn light would come on and go off at random times, not to mention my car would go into safety boost mode. It Sucked!!!
