Have you checked your codes? If the check engine light is coming on, you may have trouble codes stored. If so, they will give you some ideas as to what is causing the rough running. Auto Zone and Advanced Auto will check your codes at no charge if you don't have a reader.

Welcome to FTE.

Seeing as how you've had a CEL lit, it has trouble codes stored in CM, so have the computer scanned for trouble codes, or you can pull them your self, with the instructions listed in the "Tech Info" thread atop this forums thread listing page.

Then post ALL the code numbers found, as they can offer up good trouble shooting clues.
