Ok I have switched the gas cap and drove and drove but still have the light on. Notice today that my temp gauge goes up and down. I don't notice it moving as I could not watch it due to the curvey road I was on but it would go past the halfway mark then seem to go back down. Has plenty of water and added antifreeze. Oil is fine and not past due. The tech mention that there are 33 potential problems it could be- emissions type things or sparking? Where can I find these or what else should I do to get rid of this problem?

Exactly there are DEFINATELY more than 33 reasons and the auto store should be able to pull the code but make sure you write it down and tell us so we can figure out what the problem is.

Well there is a really good chance it has something to do with the radiator, leaky hose, etc.. You know when you have had a car that you had to put water in ever 5 miles and you now that smell that is like no other, well my car has that smell and I cannot find any water leaking something is obviously not right. I also get a slight smell of oil, course my nose is super sensitive but Tuesday I will know. I just have this fear that the dealer will tell me some thing is wrong with one thing, fix that and make fifty other things go bad within the next 6 months. Sounds stupid but I avoid that place like the dennist. I don't trust my baby with any mechanics around here. I'll let you know what you can add to the 33, oh and the guy said emissions, I am an idiot it when it comes to cars, but problems with the cooling sys, causing this light to come one would have little to do w/ emissons?

Watch what they tell you and if it sounds fishy dont have them do it. The Dealership might just be trying to get a few extra bucks outta you, and ive seen it done. The light can come on for all sorts of reasond from cooling system problems to emission problems to engin problems. its just an indicator light that tells you to get the codes read so it really could be anything. Good Luck.
