Oh my goodness your thread is difficult to read or make sense of. I will try to tackle this one.

1. Have the weber on the 2.4 liter 87 raider been on there for two yrs now.

The Raider engine should be a 2.6L, not a 2.4L which would have FI.

The rest of your post is crap that has no logic. I can't help referring you to board etiquette rules about having intelligible writing: 4x4Wire FAQ Section

2. I think that you're asking about the little red light that comes on every 50,000 miles, or so. To reset that light, there are two methods. The first is to remove the small cover behind the speedo cluster and trip the small black slide switch. The second is to pull the speedo cluster and pull the bulb.

Your garble I think indicates that you've removed or bypassed the Exhaust Gas Recovery (EGR, not ERG) system, so why would you need the light?

Please organize your text. This isn't Twitter.

Russell is correct. the light comes on every 75k miles. The switch is a little hard to see. The factory service manual shows the correct location. You really can't see it from above without a mirror. It slides sideways. After 150k miles you are supposed to pull the bulb anyway...

Hint: the only way I could understand you was from having grown up in Bama. It's an acquired skill.
