Is there a permanent code and non permanent code, cus my check engine light comes on when i drive at 65 mph for 10 min or so and smokes a good cloud.
When it does that i put it in to neutral and turn the car off and then start it back up, the light goes away and the car stops smoking after 15 sec or so. Can i stop and check the flashing led at ecu with out turning ignition off and then turning it back on. Havent tried it, Kind of hard to stop and pull over on the side of the road or stop at gas station in rush hour traffic.
Need help and sorry if its been asked, I did 2 hours of research on the forum, my service book, and online, but still have no answer or one that leads me to the right direction.

What type if any work have you done on the car? What color is the smoke coming out of the exhaust?
