Long shot, but I'm guessing your battery is either low or on its way out.

Did you drive it at all when it was running rough, if so was the speedo working?

Fuel filter, plugs, coils, battery, incorrect injector scaling???

flux capacitor?

Which light came on? Was it the TPS light? Did you give it alot of stick the night/day before starting the car up? My TPS light came on a year ago a few times, usually when I was giving it heaps on a hot / day / night. Started the car up, put it into drive, and coughed/sput, turned her off, started her back up and all good. :bowdown:
