Go to Advance or Auto Zone and they have a pressure hand pump that you put on the radiator and you pump up the pressure and watch the meter to see if it starts dropping pressure. Check around the lower intake also because sometimes you will see water on it and when your running the vacuum will push the water into the engine.

Have you removed your charcoal canister?? If so this is where the code is coming from.

If you plug that solenoid back in and cap off the vacuum nipples on it, the check engine light should go away.

If you didn't remove it then it's most likey still there, I'm not too familiar with the 98's though so I'm not sure if they moved the location in comparision to the Fox bodies.

Anyways, the charcoal canister may be on the pass. side framerail just forward of the motor mount. It looks like a black platic box that'll have two vacuum line running to it.

It may be your EGR, but that's an Exhaust Gas Recirculating Valve?? Wish I knew more about the 98's......
