Check Engine Light

While on my way to a super bowl party i was on the highway doing like 65 whne my check engine light came on. I was doing nothing out of the ordinary and the car seemed to run and sound fine. When leaving the party, i started my car and like 5 seconds after i turned it on the tach started to bounce up and down by a few hundreds for a coule seconds and then my engine sputtered like it was about to stall. Suddenly the car went back to normal, and runs and sounds fine. HOwever my economy wehn form like 29.6 to 22.9. Any ideas anyone?

You should get the code pulled and find out what it was for and maybe that will lead you in the right direction.
