Knock sensor, maf, cylinder?

We are on vacation, driving.

When I started the car yesterday and started driving, it didnt sound quite right. It sounds a bit more rough and coarse. Accelleration seems ok but I think the engine yield is not quite at par considering the rpm. By this I mean that at a certain speed the tack seems higher than usual, ie 100 kmh at 2000 rather than 1800. Fourth gear works. Locl up seems to work.

Check engine lit briefly after a while and disappeared again. It lights when I put the key to ignition. When i start the car the check engine light flashes briefly and is the first to disappear, typically power and airbag lights staying on for about two seconds.

I recently had an oil change, nothing else happens. Its an obd1 car, does it store error codes?

I have attached a pdf with instructions on how to check the codes and what each code indicates a problem with. Post what the code is.

Thanks. However, the check engine light was lit for maybe twenty seconds and thats about 600 km ago would the car still produce a fault code?

It should still be stored.

[icingdeath88]

Yes it should be stored. Problem will be if you never checked the codes before, everything since they were last cleared will come up too. So, it will tell you every code that was stored since the battery was last unplugged.

Am i better off just taking it to a garage and have them connect a monitor to the ecu?
