so my 94 ex was running well, all systems go for almost a month. I knew it wouldn't last.
ran her through the car wash, no problem.
on the way home, CEL flashes on, stays on for a few seconds, then goes out.
It did that twice on the way home.
drove it over the next several days, no issues.
Monday, in a mix on rain then snow, drove it to work.
CEL flashes 3 times when I start it up. runs like crap for the first couple miles, light flashes on and off a few times finally straightens out and runs ok.
Since then every time I start it the CEL flashes 3 times and it runs like crap.
Pulled the codes and got the following 116, 114 and then after a few seconds 172. With the engine running, it only gives the 172 code.
I know I can decipher the codes, but I dont get the 3 flashes when I start it. Is this something they are known to do?
Any help much appreciated.
