Since the check engine light is on,why not start with that and get the code checked out and go from there?

Could be your fuel pump or the sock filter thingy (Strainer?) on the end of it. I know mine's cruddy and my car will lose all power in sharp left turns even on a full tank because of it. ... Too damn lazy to replace it

Oh yeah, and check the code like tony said.
