If it gives you a check engine light (CEL), then it takes several restarts to clear the code. Alternately you can unplug the positive terminal of the battery for a few minutes while the codes all clear, but then you have to reset your clock and radio stations.

I hate the stupied CEL. I've got an intermittant one that shows up for a day and then clears itself and it happens almost every week. I'm guessing it's the spooge on the mass air flow sensor, but I have yet to determine it for certain. What freaks me out a little is that if it's on already, it completely defeats my ability to use the CEL to detect something ELSE of perhaps more importance.
Have you tried the cleaning technique that Jason did to Larry's MAF?
