Thumbs down Check engine light code 26

It threw a "lean" code and I tightened the MAF sensor cause it was loose, and those are known to trip the ecu for running lean. today it came on for 20 secs and then went off?? WTF? any one have same problem? if it went of should i just keep driving it? thanks

I'd clear your ECU codes (remove the battery cable for about 2 minutes)... then see if it comes back on again. I have a similar problem with my supercharged Honda S2000.... on occasion, the "fuel mixture too rich" code appears... if I clear it, it's happy for 3-4 weeks then comes back on... if I ignore the code, seems like the ECU eventually gives up and turns off the check engine light. I just chalk it up to occasional aberrations with the aftermarket supercharger piggyback ECU controller
