Hi:
Run a code scan. With the engine off, turn the key from off to on three times. The third time, leave it in the run position. The check engine will flash numbers for you with a short delay indicating it's moving to a new number. Count the flashes and get back to me with what you find.

Hi:
If you have no codes, check for vacuum leaks. Also, you may want to have the map sensor checked for proper operation.

Let me know what you find.
