Default check engine light

alright guys im new on this forum, first time here actually.

my question is this, i have a v6 1996 camaro rs. 5 speed 3.8L. Sometimes as im driving the check "service engine soon" light comes up. then after about 10-20 min it goes off. i just recently changes 2 of the 4 oxygen censors it has and the catilatic converter and new flowmasters. i do plan on getting a clod air intake soon, just a little short on the money. anyone have any clue as to why the service light keeps coming up?

oh and also as im driving sometimes when im in second or third gear it gives me some kind of a stutter.. if that makes sence. it seems like it hessitates for a sec.. then gets up? any ideas what might be causing this?

thanks, adan

Go get the car scanned free at Autozone...

When is the last time you changed transmission fluid & filter or had it flushed? If never with lots of miles, do it and add back Dexron 6 (not the lower life Dexron 4).

changed the oil and filter about 3 weeks ago. never had it flushed.how much would that cost? someone told me that it would most likely be the o2 censors so i had 2 of them changes while i was getting the flowmasters put in. but the light is still there.. so it could be the other 2 censors..

and i didnt know autozone scanned for free.. ill probably go there after work today.
