Is it bad when service engine light for 2002 explorer comes on?
Something is affecting the emissions of the vehicle , it could be anything from the gas cap not installed properly , poor gas , a sensor . It could just be a temporary problem that corrects itself and the light goes out after using the vehicle a few times ( starting with a cold engine ) As long as the light isn't flashing which indicates an engine cylinder misfire , if the light stays on after using the vehicle a few times and trying some gas from another station I would take it in to a mechanic and they will scan the vehicle for any trouble code(s) to help diagnose and correct the problem

2001 Volvo that the check engine light comes on you changed the camshaft sensor and it came back on I heard to only use premium 91 gas could that be the problem?
The check engine light (service engine soon) comes on and stays on when a problem is detected by the self diagnosis system of your vehicle. Generally, the problem is in the emissions or something that is affecting the effectiveness of the emissions, but other causes can trigger the light to come on, too. To determine the cause, the vehicle will need to be taken to a parts store or a shop that has an OBD2 scanner, or for 1995 and earlier models, an OBD1 scanner, While a scanner will not give you the magic answer, it will give you a code that narrows down the problem area. Not using 91 octane should not cause a cam sensor issue.
