Check Engine Light

So I need some guys! I had my catalytic converters changed 1 month ago. Ever since then the car idles rough, and tends to hesitate when accelerating. I changed out the spark plugs & fuel filter. Still have the same issue with the Check Engine Light. Any ideas on other possible sources for the light? The car has 91k miles.

New cats won;t cause a those symptoms..

The easy thing to do is pay the 90 bucks to have the dealer tell you exactly why your light is on. NOBODY is going to be able to tell you for sure from here. THere a re a thousand reason, so there could be a thousand ideas..

take it in an then we can share the best way to go about correcting whatever they said the problem was
