I just got a 2002 Seville STS with 64K from an older lady, she drove it soft when she did drive it. It was/is using a lot of oil about 3/4 of a qt for about 450 miles, So I thought it needs to be "cleaned out" and driven hard. I remember from my last car a 97 Deville these like some red-line shifts and hard driving to keep them clear and clean. So I did three hard acc. from a stop. One red-line shift getting out on the highway, then I just downshifted from OD to 3 and floored it getting on the next highway. That last time made the "check engine light" come on and flash a few times then go off. That time it did not make it to red-line. felt bogged down. So I drove nice the rest of the way, when I got to my des. I noticed it had what felt like a miss. Shut it off, then heading home a few mins after starting the check engine light came on and stayed on. I tired to get the codes from the dash but everything was history so I cleared it last night drove around town today still missing but no check engine light?
Any ideals on what's wrong what happened? I drive nice all the time and only plan on doing red-line clean outs a few times a year ( I don't drive a lot).
