you could take it to your garage and have them check codes but (in my opinion) that usually gives them a list of a million possibilities to start replacing parts - always expensive parts first. silly things can cause this warning - from gas cap to cat converter to ????? You say acceleration is what? sluggish,jerky ??? Maybe a fuller description of acceleration problem will help the readers try to help you out here.

i took my (2007 dodge ram 1500 5.7 hemi 4x4) to the garage and they said it is the gas evap .now i learned that could be a leak in some tube and i found it and fixed it, but still have the engine light on. about the acceleration,when the car goes under 60m and i step on the accelerator the engine seems like (powerless) or it is like chocking ,then i step down more the engine regain power again.
