Thanks JFP, I should have mentioned that the check engine light was triggered by the faulty air oil separator that I replaced over the winter months. There is no question the separator was bad as it was blowing white smoke EVERY time I'd start the car.
Since the repair, I never had the light properly reset so I just disconnected the battery and it went away. Hence my question if that really reset it properly. Some cars it does...not sure about the Box.

My Volvo had the same problem and I was told that 80 miles would clear it out. I've done many start/stops...highway and city driving during the 109 miles. I though that would be enough to pass the inspection but it's not.
