Intermitent "check engine" after a very cold & tough...

It's crazy cold here in Quebec in the recent days. It was -25C at night and my car (1995 900SE V6) did not start on the next morning. The next day it was -15C during the day and after several attempts it finally started in an ultra black smoke. The car was then running very fine but after a few miles the "check engine" light came on.
Stopped the car for shopping, went back in, started the car, the "check engine" light stayed for about 15 secs then disapear... but came on again after a few miles and stayed on. Tried to disconnect the battery, started the car, this time no "check engine" light at startup but came on again after a few miles...
Does someone has an idea of what it could be ? Everything seems to be normal (amount of power,temperature, gas mileage).
Thank you for your help.
