    If the CEL comes on for 2 seconds and then goes out, when the ignition switch is turned to ON (Position II), then focus on the distributor. Replacing the Ignition Control Module (ICM) and coil normally solves the problem. Be sure to apply silicone heat transfer compound to the back of the new ICM, otherwise it won't last long. Stay away from aftermarket distributors--they are junk. Aftermarket ICMs and coils, however, are fine.

I've read a bunch of posts on here and I tried the main relay first. It seems to be working fine.. it clicks, I can hear the fuel pump, and the CEL goes out after 2 seconds. This problem was random, the car wouldn't start randomly, I was told it had "vaporlock" and that if I left the gas cap...
