The "Check Engine" Light came on and that's the only thing I could come up with to get ride of it. And I'm not going to spend $110 for them to tell me whats wrong with it, then charge me once again to fix the problem.
 
You can't pull the code from Autozone on a 1994. You need to
get the code from an OBD 1 scanner or jump the diagnostic
connector with a paper clip in the correct pins. The info will
" flash on the dash " in a specific sequence...

Save your money, fix the problem the right way and find out
what is causing the check engine light to come on.

Good Luck e-mail me direct for more info. I've got the book.
 
If the engine is not running poorly, a tune-up probably will not correct the problem you are having. You need to find out what code is in the computer's memory that's throwing the light. There are two pins in the check connector that you jump together to get the flash codes. One is called TE1, the other E1. Join those two, turn the key on without starting, and check the flash sequence. Having a service manual will be EXTREMELY HELPFUL at this point.
Good Luck!
 
You can also buy your own Actron OBD-II code reader.
