It may be a number of things. The most common are the O2 sensor located in your exhaust manifold/headpipe or EGR valve in your intake manifold.
I have a 2005 F150 5.4 engine. My child has taken it out of town for a few weeks. Is this something that needs attention immediately or can it wait until he returns? Is this connected in any way to the charging system? On this same trip, we had the alternator changed! Poor kid!
No - check engine light is related to emission control system
engine light comes on and off. when light is on it hesitates and transmission slips. what could cause that on a 93 F150
If the check engine light is flashing at 1 second intervals , an engine cylinder misfire has been detected
There are pages and pages of things that can cause a check engine light. You need to have it checked with a scantool. Then the code can be diagnosed and repaired.

* It could be a faulty check engine light or a light sensor problem . There's probably not a problem with the engine at all just the faulty sensor light problem most likely. * ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------If your check engine light stays on with the engine running , a malfunction with the emission control system has been detected. Have your vehicle scanned for any trouble codes in order to diagnose and repair the problem. ( I had a check engine light come on at 35000 miles - in my case it turned out to be the DPFE sensor )
