Why would anyone pump gas with the engine running? That's a major safety issue.

Just when I thought she was ok, the check engine light came on as well. Running like a champ. Guess I'll have to take her to independent dealer for code check (he has tool to do this). I hit 75K at about the time it went off. Is there a connection between hitting 75K and check engine. I would think maybe service light for 80K tune-up, but not check engine. Thanks

RE: Engine light on
Is there any way to get the check engine code (out of Volvo 850 Turbo) by counting its slow/fast CEL flashing sequences?
Some of the cars I've owned (USA or Japanese made) had a handy way to get this CEL code out by unplugging diagnostic plug first and shorting out specified pins for a few seconds w/ jumper wire, and by counting its flash sequence with ignition on + engine off. Has anyone done this on Volvo 850 Turbo and have a list of CEL code? I am pretty sure that I can get the code out from AutoZone, but I am just curious if there is another way.
In addition, is there any way to clear CEL code (after correcting the problem, of course)? Would keeping the battery disconnected for a certain period (30 minutes or so) clear the CEL code?
Thanks!
