Question:

Check engine light on and car shaking?

This morning I go out to my car and it chose to act out on me. 2000 Daewoo Nubira.Odd sound possibly from resonator?As soon as I turned it on, it started shaking and almost like it was bouncing. The check engine light also came on too. I put it in reverse to see if that may work, but it still was shaking. I then put it in drive and gave a little gas, no result, so I put it back in park and now have no idea what to do.It does seem to be coming from the engine area. Also, there is no way I could afford to go to a mechanic right now.I did try driving it (not too far though) and it still does shake when driving.The light is a constatant, no blinking. My husband checked for a hissing and he says there is none.The guy at AutoZone said it should be alright to drive in, but with any problem I get so nervous and I am not sure about whether or not it is alright to drive even the three miles to AutoZone.(I asked this earlier and still confused as to what it could be)

you're fast, aren't you? not exactly on the surface, not buried though, by any means. and yes put the lid with holes on top, because that keeps it humid and moist. i think you might want an aquarium heater to keep temperature constant, but again you might read upon that.
If the check engine light is on. That means the computer has detected a problem with the fuel delivery system. The most common cause is a bad sensor. Before taking it to a garage, have your husband check to be sure that none of the sensors are unplugged.It's possible that one of the wires came loose or is corroded. Also have him check for soft, broken or unplugged vacuum hoses. If the visible check is OK, a computer scan will have to be performed to find out what the problem is. You can drive it to Auto Zone and they'll check the codes for you. Good luck. Master tech 40 years
