How Long Can I Drive With The Check Engine Light On?
The Check Engine Light can mean many different things from a Loose Gas Cap to a serious Engine Problem so you should get it checked out as soon as possible.
The photo is the bottom of the Intake Manifold on a 2014 Dodge Ram Pickup. The truck had no power and would not accelerate very quickly. We found the Intake Manifold was melted and the EGR Cooler was damaged because of a Fuel Problem in the engine. The Check Engine Light and the Service Electronic Throttle Body Light were on for only one day. This repair cost over $5800.
The important thing is not to ignore warning lights on your dashboard; get your car checked out by a Good Mechanic as soon as possible. It could help prevent damaging expensive components.
