I got a light today...

Car threw a SES light at me today when I got off of work. Does anyone have a link or some info on what the possibilites could be? or is it too hard to pinpoint? My car is running fine, and there seems like theres absolutely nothing wrong with it. The only 2 times I ever got this light was 1. from a misfire, 2. when I used seafoam, but shortly went away.

Any help is appreciated, and TIA.

no mods, no misfire... Like i said, the car is working fine, nothing is different. I could tell why I had the SES light over a year ago when I had a misfire.... Could be an 02, but I have no idea how to know that. I heard that autozone does free scans... maybe Ill run there tomorrow?

usually im an *** to you paar...and i intend to follow this trend...

shut the **** up. you damn well know no one can tell you whats wrong.the SES light for OBDII could be over a hundred different things...all emissions related. no one on the internet or anywhere except for a repair shop can tell you whats wrong with it. autozone does "free scans" but ive never heard of anyone actually being able to get autozone to pull the code. they say their scanner isnt working or it wont fit that car.

stop wasting chads bandwidth by pretending you know all about OBDII and the "SES" light...which i doubt you would even know what that stood for if it werent for it being spelled out on your dash.

Okay, actually I DIDNT know how many there were until last night when I googled it. Im not 'pretending' I know anything about OBDII, except I know thats what my car has to scan. So why dont you chill the **** out and dont post if you had a ****** day. I came here for help as anyone else would. I dont go in your threads and ***** about your random 350 chops you want from grant. I dont know what your problem is, but go take a prozac and visit some counseling sites.

Oh yeah, btw... Ill have you know that a thread takes up about as much bandwidth as it does to visit the main page. If anything, you wasted more space with your irrelevent, and somewhat non-useful post. So why dont you stick to being a god about OBDII information, and Ill fill you in on what you dont know about the internet.

Well this is the code it got:

P0441 Evaporative Emission Control System Incorrect Purge Flow

He reset it, and told me I shouldnt worry about it unless it came back up.
