Engine Sputter on startup?
So a couple months ago I had a problem that seemed to be a coil pack leaking due to when I went mudding. The engine would sputter and getting up to speed was hard and all that mess. Well I let it sit for a while until I could find a friend to help me with the issue and it ended up completely fixing itself?
Well it was running well and then I went to a car show about 2 hours away from my house. While over there my check engine light came on and now it sputters just on the start up like it struggles a little to get up to 1,000rpm idle. Once it gets there 2-3 seconds later it runs fine but it struggles a little getting there. Does this issue ring a bell to anyone?
I also get a kind of whine out of the engine now that started on the way home from the trip.
Anything seem like it sticks out to you guys?
Thanks!

Oh and another Q I have. It is apparent whoever had my EX before me either didn't care or didn't know to check but how do I go about getting my speedometer on point? Was following a buddy for the show and my speedometer says I'm going 65 when I'm really going 75 lol.

Assume you're running a taller tire than 265/75-16?
