You need a auto scanner, it reads codes on your onboard computer. If the problem is not fixed the light will keep coming on. After the problem is fixed you can use the scanner to turn off the check engine light. Auto scanner can be expensive but if you like to work on your own vehicles it will pay for it self, if not go to your local dealership and they will read the codes but like i said the problem will have to be fixed.
That REQUIRES an ENGINE SCANNER to do that.
Yes but, if the light is flashing no.

It might be that you did not tighten the gas cap enough.
It is on because the ECU has detected a problem with the emissions system.
You use a scan tool after repairing the cause of the code that turned the light on.
You can buy the check engine computer and the book comes with it. I know, I bought one. When your check engine light comes on, you plug it in and check the engine and it will give you the code and you look in the book for that code and it gives you the answer.
It will run, But not right and the check engine light will come on. It needs the converter.
no it doesnt
you need an obdII scanner to read codes. either that or one of the many after market programmers.
Normally a flashing check engine light means you have a misfire. Do not ignore this as an engine misfire will damage the O2 sensor and the catalytic converter which are very expensive to replace. Have this repaired immediately.
