I have a 1993 Volvo 940 turbo wagon. The oil filter leaked and dumped
oil over the lower engine/exhaust. Problem was fixed. My check engine
light now is on after driving a few miles. Any suggestions?

you may just need to re set it.....or, drop by your volvo
shop and have them see what code it 'threw"...

perhaps the turbo bearing has failed due to loss of oil pressure when the
filter let oil leak out?
