is the Check engine light on yet? You should be able to take it to Autozone and have them pull the codes. Every time I have had anything like that, it has been a coil going bad for one reason or another.

how much are coils and are they hard to do?
k so it was cylinder 5 misfire.... i guess it was the moisture let the car warm up and got rid of the light and been fine since.... i guess it musta been the moisture since it was sitting outside all winter.... or i will have to change the spark plugs or the coils... so far so good...

depends on how longs it been since you had a tune up, it can't hurt anything to change them out.
