when you first turn your key to turn your car over or when its cranked does your check engine and check oil light come on for a sec then go off? i believe its suposoto but mine doesnt checked all the fuses so i think a bulbs burned.

FYI, the engine light should come on and stay on until the engine is running. The PCM will turn the light out when it gets a signal from the pickup coil in the distributor. This can be used to see if the PCM is getting a good PIP signal in the event she ever crank/no starts for you........
