May 25, 2008 - CEL Again...

The car now has 16,488 miles (in 7 months) and got another Check-Engine Light... This is now really bothering me.

The car has a new ECU, new cat, new cam, new Stage-II exhaust... what's could be wrong next/again? This really is like dating a super hot, but bitchy girl...

(yes, I've checked the gas cap, too...)
