About a month ago my car was shaking and there was barely any acceleration when i would hit the gas until i started going then it was fine but it was still shaking. My mechanic said it was the Engine coils, So i got both changed. Now the engine light is back on and once again barely any acceleration but this time its not shaking. It seems to start ok, and again once i get to a certain speed its fine until i stop. Please help Ive spent enough money on this problem to have it happen again. Thanks you very much.

Check engine will come on every time computer detect a problem and will set a code
indicating troubled area
as a 1st step you need to have the system scanned for code s
