saw that i was a bit low on engine oil.... could that be the cause ?
Awesome!!!. much thanks!No need for a scanner on OBD1 Camrys. You can read the codes with a piece of wire or a paper clip. The procedure and the codes should be in any manual. There are Toyota factory service manuals stickied at the top of the Camry forum over at AutomotiveForums.com, that are available for free downloading. Go there and download the generation 2 manual.

thanks mike. i figured, i topped up and still came on.I forgot to mention in my earlier post, being a bit low on oil shouldn't cause the check engine light to go on.

Nothing new really. Except, I'm starting to think it's maybe ign timing (can't think of anything else). Cuz driving under light throttle, it doesnt come on, but going a bit faster on a stretch, it comes on then goes, So i'm waiting for payday to go to a shop with a timing light to check that my base timing is correct.I'm getting this same issue. When I was on the freeway last time, the CEL came on for a few seconds and shut off. This is the second time since a while ago the same thing happened. Any findings stanno?
