This little red light

I don't know why my "check engine" light always comes on when my car idles for about 5 minutes or I am driving and it comes on after about 10 minutes if steady cruising, but not when I am accelerating. Anyone have any ideas

you ought to check the codes and then if you can't figure it out and fix it repost. if you don't know how to check codes do a search for ALDL and see what you come up with.
