Check Engine Light

I wanna do a poll for those of you who actually have check engine lights, is it on or off?? And if you don't have one, would it be on if you did?

Neither my DD or my 87 camaro have a SES light on. Both legitamately pass NJ inspection...

I prefer that my vehicles' work and run the way they were intended.

Camaro - There's nothing under the hood to check

Benz - uh if it had one it may come on and say "hey ******* you are missing half your oil pan"

Malibu- nope

(car I borrowed til I fix the Benz) 83 Datsun Maxima - It would be, rustbucket POS misses a bit, backfires sometimes, rough idle, exhaust leak aroudn the cat...

As mentioned above, when I pulled the computer out of my '87 the light stayed on....when the car was running.
