It's a long shot, but my check engine light start coming on periodically. Turned out the place where the previous owner spliced in a mixture gauge wasn't making good contact, and every time it would jiggle loose the check light would come one. (on a side note, I noticed the ECU would switch to an open loop when the light is on). Might be worth checking.....

a open or short in the wiring some where! i really doubt that your car will
just go poooofffff!!! get a jumper wire and go to the little black box marked dianogstics and jump it from ground to the ten and get in the
car and turn ing on dont start and wait for the flash and count them and
refer to the shop man. or a website that list them. prob. a bad connection or a cut in the wire something stupid!!!
