The check engine (MIL) light is on for a couple days, off for a couple, on right now. When it's on, the car behaves as if someone's stepping on the gasline. Mild shudder, very very brief loss of power, stuttering.

Just got back from Auto Zone using their sensor thing, and have codes of P0165, P0267 and P0121.

Anything I can do at home? I'm pretty handy.

Thanks for your input. I replaced the Throttle Position Sensor. Everything is ironed out.
