My neighbor's 4.6 sohc engine light came on and stayed on while driving.We disconnected the battery and the light went off.He drove it for about 150 miles and the engine light came on again.(about a week's time).He is retired and unable to work on cars.I would like to help him find and repair the problem.A mechanic told him he would charge him $85 to tell him what the problem was.He doesn't have the money to spare,presently. The car does not show over-heating and obviously has good lubrication.Seems to operate normal.It has 70,000 miles on it and has been well maintained. Some of you are pretty well experienced in finding the root problems of this kind or maybe trouble shoot some inexpensive way to solve his problem.I will very much appreciate your ideas and advice. I Thank You,in advance for your response.
