Answer
Hello and thanks for the question...I'll try to help.
Yes, I have several ideas......first, STOP going to autozone for diagnostic work. All they do is pull a code out of your ECM and tell you to replace the part.........with out pin point testing the system.
Second, bite the bullet and bring your vehicle to a garage and have them look in to the cause of the check engine light being on.
