It would help if you can tell us the code(s) that came on. In the meantime, you need to check some of your sensors, making sure that they are working properly.

* Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor: It monitors the intake manifold pressure changes resulting from changes in engine load and speed that the PCM uses to control fuel delivery and ignition timing.

* Throttle Position (TP) sensor: PCM uses output voltage of the TPS to determine fuel delivery based on throttle valve angle.

* Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor: It provides cylinder ID to the PCM to synchronize fuel delivery to ignition system.

* Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor: PCM uses the sensor to determine fuel injector sequence, ignition timing and engine rpm.
