Alright this is buggin the shi* out of me. My car runs perfect, no idle problems or anything, but when I start up my car the check engine light comes on. As soon as I hit the gas it shuts off, but will flash when i shift, basically turns on whenever my foot isnt on the gas. I can sit at a stop light while its on and make it turn on and off by tapping the gas. My oil pressure is fine I dont know what the hell it is. Anyone have any suggestions???

And I'm throwing my money at a TPS code. I seem to recall my TPS throwing codes when I let off the gas. Probably just needs an adjustment.

ok ill check, yeah nothing else comes on, just the check engine. Ive noticed it takes a hella long time to roll up my windows and close and open the sunroof, and my dash lights dim pretty bad when the headlights turn on, so altenator wouldnt surprise me, but ill check the codes as well.
