CEL and rough idle then it won't start
I apologize in advance if there is already a thread that I have overlooked that deals with this issue and if so could someone please link me to it.
I've had my car for two months now and I've driven roughly 1200 miles or so. I changed the oil around 800 miles ago. She has 120000 miles on her and she's a 2004.
The other night I started up my car and the check engine light came on. concerned, I cut the car off and used a friend's car. later that night when I returned I started her again and I felt a rough idle others have described for the minute or so. I cut off the engine figuring that I need to do a tune up for the plugs wires and coils.
Two days later I planned to drive to autozone to have the CEL code read and my car won't turn over and the CEL and Battery light are on. Is this to be expected from failing spark plugs (and or wires and coils) and should I just go ahead and order new ones or am I facing a more dire problem.
