oil change, a/c sercice, replaced bad strut mount - timing advanced \my car is ripping now actually scared myself last night,Pulled up on the line next to a Dodge Hemi Magnum - the woman driving w/her husband in passenger seat learched forward to the line, light changed and we took off Hemi was 3/4 of a car length in fron of me by 35mph by 70 we were even @112mph i took her by 1/2 a car length.

OK so here is the problem check engine light still comes on and still have a minorish shimmy.
