well, I just changed my heater hose, since the old one died in a most spectacular manner, (great way to flush out the radiator though), and now, for some reason the check engine light is on, tried disconnecting the egi fuse, and the negative terminal to reset the ecu, and no luck, I am wondering if this is just some electronic tic in the car, or if I destroyed something important somehow? any suggestions would be welcome

You should check for the code: http://www.johnr.com/cpucodes.html .

thanks, I was thinking of that, but didn't know where the codes were, now, my question is, what/where is the "intake thermosensor" ? since that is the only error code I got, maybe I knocked it loose or something, welp, time to go jiggle some wires I guess



::edit::

Never mind, I got up the ambition to go look myself, and found where I had pulled the sensor loose when I was wedging the new hose in to the firewall, all better now they really don't leave a whole lot of room to work behind the engine.
