Check Engine Light

I have a '95 F250, 5-speed, 460 with low miles (44,000). I live at 7600' and whenever I go to lower altitudes, say 5000', and am going 65 mph or faster my check engine light comes on. If I turn the engine off and restart the light stays off until I hit 65 again. It never happens at 7000' + no matter how fast I go. The outside temperature is also a factor as it has to be 70 degrees of warmer. I'm guessing oxygen sensor - any thoughts? Thanks for the help.

Pull your codes and they should tell you what the problem is.

I did pull the codes and everything was ok. Of course I was stopped and the check engine light was no longer on.
