Well I went to auto zone. they have a deal where they'll check your code for free and clear the code if needed. I recently got that code. Something like small leak in evaporator or something like that. I was told it was because I fueled the car while it was running. Apparently there's some sort of evaporator in the fuel system to help with emissions and sometimes when fueling the car while it's running causes some fuel to get in the evaporator. Hope this helps a little. I have a 97 rs with about 107,000 miles on it. The check engine light only came on 3 times ( power steering pump switch, oxygen sensor and the evaporator)
