Get it fixed! A check engine light can cause the ECU to employ a backup fuel map that is richer, uneconomical, and unlikely to stall. I know my Subaru loves to idle high when it's really cold out, or when the CEL is on.

I know how to fix but I have to remove a lot just to get to it.
If I went to a shop they would probably charge a couple 100

Ill probably leave it.




Ive actually done it a couple more times.
When Im going super slow, ill shift to neutral and itll cut off
Its almost like an automatic EOC.
