my wife was leaving work
she started her car and noticed the check engine light stayed on
she was driving it home and noticed she would loose power (slower) going uphill
when she almost made it home she had to stop at a red light and it stalled
i went to where she was and got it started and drove it home
now it wont start

we need the code for the check engine light.

as far as the power, we need to start at basics, compression, spark and fuel pressure. they all need to be checked.
