Suddenly the check engine light came on. To my surprise, the cooling system was not reaching the desired temperature to allow the light to stay off and pass inspection. I was told to purchase a higher temperature rated Thermostat. Really!! Finally had to take the thermostat out and hopefully this will resolve the issue.
