Narrative:
Cleared for takeoff on runway 8 in abq. (Maximum power because of wet runway.) it was 39 degrees, and we had showers east, so we had engine anti-ice on. Captain pushed thrust levers forward and called for takeoff thrust. At that time, he immediately retarded them to idle. The airspeed indicator had not even come alive. The master caution had flashed, and we had both confirmed it was the 'cowl anti-ice.' I talked with tower. The captain cleared the runway. We ran the QRH, although the light was extinguished. We recycled the engine anti-ice, and all was normal. I figured the maximum power takeoff gave us the momentary flicker. We continued to take off. We wrote it up in the logbook, because we had to document the rejected takeoff. We were going to write it as information only, but discovered it did not fit that category. We realized at this time, it was not appropriate as per the MEL procedure.

Title: B737-700 CREW ABORTED THE TKOF, BECAUSE THE MASTER CAUTION LIGHT AND THE ENG COWL ANTI ICE LIGHT ILLUMINATED WITH THE APPLICATION OF TKOF PWR.
Narrative: CLRED FOR TKOF ON RWY 8 IN ABQ. (MAX PWR BECAUSE OF WET RWY.) IT WAS 39 DEGS, AND WE HAD SHOWERS E, SO WE HAD ENG ANTI-ICE ON. CAPT PUSHED THRUST LEVERS FORWARD AND CALLED FOR TKOF THRUST. AT THAT TIME, HE IMMEDIATELY RETARDED THEM TO IDLE. THE AIRSPD INDICATOR HAD NOT EVEN COME ALIVE. THE MASTER CAUTION HAD FLASHED, AND WE HAD BOTH CONFIRMED IT WAS THE 'COWL ANTI-ICE.' I TALKED WITH TWR. THE CAPT CLRED THE RWY. WE RAN THE QRH, ALTHOUGH THE LIGHT WAS EXTINGUISHED. WE RECYCLED THE ENG ANTI-ICE, AND ALL WAS NORMAL. I FIGURED THE MAX PWR TKOF GAVE US THE MOMENTARY FLICKER. WE CONTINUED TO TAKE OFF. WE WROTE IT UP IN THE LOGBOOK, BECAUSE WE HAD TO DOCUMENT THE REJECTED TKOF. WE WERE GOING TO WRITE IT AS INFO ONLY, BUT DISCOVERED IT DID NOT FIT THAT CATEGORY. WE REALIZED AT THIS TIME, IT WAS NOT APPROPRIATE AS PER THE MEL PROC.
