Check Engine light FIXED

My 95 Ranger has had it's "Check Engine" light on for 6 years. Since 60,000
miles (It now has 130,000) It runs great, A/C still works. Best vehicle I've
ever had except for that darn check engine light shining in my eyes. I
thought about putting tape over it, drilling into the bulb, etc. Well the
fix was... I waited it out, after all these years and miles the light
FINALLY gave up and went out. I WIN and it cost nothing! (except maybe gas
mileage) I have recently noticed a slight exhaust leak, maybe that "fixed"
the light. Now my dash draws my attention because the light is not on. There
is hope for all driving around with their light on. WAIT it out, it'll give
up eventually and go out.

You're my hero! The one on my 1989 F150 has been on for about 6 years too
(code 32, EGR). There's nothing wrong with my EGR valve, so I gave up trying
to fix it. I don't understand how they could have that one light be so
reliable.
