I think before you throw good money after bad, you should have the codes read! If your check engine light is on, the car is trying to tell you where to start! Go to a place like Autozone and have the codes read, they do it free! Then come back with the code printout, and post them! These sysmtoms could be anything from a tunes up, to sesnsor replacement, to parts!
