The check engine light indicates a problem with you engine that may or may not affect the way it runs, the only way to tell is to have the codes read at the dealer or a parts store that will do it for free and use the information gained to affect a repair.

Depending on what year Jeep you have, it may cause the check engine light to come on. It won't effect how the engine runs but it will effect the emissions.
What could the problem be if your check engine light came on and engine runs rough?
It could be that you have not tightened the cap on your gas tank. Be sure to check the gas cap and see if its being properly tightened. That was the case for me a couple of times.
How do you adjust the distributor to set timing on 92 maxima?
get under hood and rev your motor manually.......till you hit around 2000 rpms than while keeping motor reved adjust the cap....now if you are too advanced on your cap youll hear a popping missing noise.....back off the cap counter clockwise till the engine runs smooth....if you retard the cap too much the engine will run with a hesitation....that's the closest youll get other wise youll nweed to hook it up to the computer at the Nissan dealer and theyll chargre the hell out of you ***See what engine code you have. If it is a Maxima SE (DOHC)(VE30DE engine code) you will have a timing chain instead of belt and probably no distributor. The GXE (SOHC) has the VG30 engine which has the belt...
