What's that saying... 'Hope springs eternal' or something like that???

Would certainly be nice if that was it. Or maybe some slight vacuum leak is now sealed. Or the gas treatments cleaned something out that was causing issues. Or...

If the code pops up again, I may just take it to the shop to have them hook it up to their engine analyzer and see what it shows. I did all the basic things that I can think of. Don't want to throw more $ at the problem without a better idea of the cause.

True. Hell on my drive this weekend I was staring at the SECURITY light for 2 hours. Haven't seen it since. Maybe our cars were just having flukes :P
