Default Something wrong with my Accord 95...Help.

Okay so my maintenance light on my 95 Accord EX Has Turned red from an orange. I've changed the oil and air filter when it was orange and now it's red, which i think is worst. And one technician said that i needed a new "Plug Gasket" L.P.T.S. I'm still wondering what it is. And by the way i'm not a car person so i need a little help if possible.

Nothing is wrong with your car. The only thing wrong is you need to know more about it. The light is to remind you when to change oil. Just use your key and push in the slot in the instrument display and the color showing will go to green and all will be right.

most places will change your plug gasket for free when you get an oil change that's kinda messed up that they were going to charge you for it...and what they said

I very much doubt they will pull the valve cover off replace the gasket and spark plug well seals for free in a oil change as removeing the valve cover is a diffrent things if you had a valve adjustment them it would be replaced @ only the cost of parts.

no i highly doubt they were talking about the spark plug seals i think that they meant the drain plug gasket which most places would replace free of charge
