He hopes you'll have issues & he'll have to fix it. LOL.
You'll do just fine.

Mike I am not expecting very much My engine light comes on and stays on, and my Indy hooked it up to his computer and the computer said every thing was fine,
so he said he has seen this kind of thing before, and that is when he suggested changing out the plug wires. I told him that I had no money, so he handed me the box of SE wires and told me to pay him later.

Your speedometer diagnostic will tell you why the engine light is on, and I'm betting you either mixed up the o2 sensors or damaged one while fooling with your exhaust.

My speedometer diagnostic system didn't spit any codes out for the Indy however I could have mixed up the o2 sensors, but as careful as I was, I doubt that I damaged one while fooling with my exhaust.
Ok now I'm picking your brain, once a day for about three days I would walk out into the garage and spray PB blaster on all the nuts, bolts and O2 sensors, and and when I finely pulled everything apart one of the O2 sensors looked a little oily and I'm wondering if that could be part of the problem or all of the problem, because the engine light is still on.
