i had the intake manifold gasket replaced & the spark plugs changed a couple of weeks ago. last week the check engine light came back on so i took it back & he said the radiator was leaking from the seam on the bottom. i didnt have him do anything to it & when i picked it up the engine was running really rough & the check engine light started blinking, which it had never done before. i turned right around & took it back & he said he thought i had a fuel injector clogged or going bad in #5. I have spent all the money i had on the repair he just did. is there anything i can do fairly cheap to fix this & if not then will it hurt anything to keep driving it for a few months while i save up. i have ran one bottle of injector cleaner through the gas.

What I need you to do is take the car to a nationally recognized parts store and have them scan the computer for codes. Most will do it for free. Then, let me know what you find so I can make some recommendations. NOTE: If the check engine light is on, there is a code stored in the computer.

Let me know what you find.

the guy thats did the repairs in the first place said that it said #5 wasn't getting enough fuel. I'm just not sure i trust what he says because it seems like everytime he does something then something else goes wrong. I'm afraid that by continuing to drive it i might make things worse or hurt something else but i dont have another vehicle
