My check engine light comes on once in awhile for about 5 minutes then goes off. I'll drive many miles and no light then all of a sudden?

It's probably what's called a "pending code", meaning that the computer has stored it for you even though the light goes off. Use a code scanner to find out what's going on. Guessing won't do any good.
