I noticed the other day when I got in my car and started driving down the road, there was a lot of noise coming from the engine. I couldn't get my car over 20 mph and the pedal was shaking the more I pushed it down. Then the engine light came on. I thought it was the spark plugs so I changed them and no change in the matter. Any idea what it could be?

The Engine Computer detected a problem, set a diagnostic fault code, and turned the Check Engine light on to tell you. The first thing is to have the codes read. There are well over 1000 potential fault codes. They will indicate the circuit or system that needs further diagnosis, or the unacceptable operating condition.
