In addition to what Eric said, I suggest you check your fuel pump. When did you change your spark plugs?
Check Engine Light
Hey All,
So i just resolved the ABC issue and now this. I've been noticing for about the past 2-3 weeks, when I start the car up it somewhat shakes. Nevertheless once its warm and driven it goes away. However, tonight it got cold and I started the car for the first time, let it warm up and drove it a good distance. Stopped it, let it sit in the cold for about 45 minutes and then started it. It was the roughest start I encountered and the Check Engine light came on. I put it in drive and pulled away and after about 15 feet then engine cut off. It then started up, light still on but I drove about 5 miles and was fine. Shut it off again for about 30 min and then started it up again. It had a noticeably rough start. Any ideas? Is it safe to drive? I'd really appreciate the help! Thanks!

You have to check the pressure of the fuel reaching the engine by installing a pressure gauge at the end line of the fuel injectors rackThanks for the advice! I don't think they've ever been changed. What in particular do you look for when inspecting a fuel pump? I called my service advisor and told him about the incident and he has yet to call me back.
