Ahh the "Check Engine" light. On my truck it only comes on after I notice a
problem, like last week I noticed that the engine had shut down then the
idiot light comes on. Just this morning the truck ingested some water
(flash flooding everywhere) when I hit the two inches of water on the
roadway at a fairly good clip, the engine started sputtering and then the
check engine light comes on.
Only good for someone who is a passenger in the drivers seat. IMHO.
My truck does not have the OBDII.

ranger. I need to set the timing after putting in a new distributor.

Just tape a yellow sign on your dash that says, "Check Engine". Use
something that can't be removed to stick it on. Then you have a perfect
simulation of OBDII.
