Check Engine light came on, tried reseting.

Finally took to a dealer. They found my Fuel pressure at fuel rail was 80lbs vs 40lbs. Ordered new fuel rail, But found all kinds of rust/crud in fuel injectors/ fuel rails and other stuff. Also when the had the fuel runners (manifold?) removed it was really dirty/ carmel looking in the chambers
(dealer said that was normal) but I was thinking it looked pretty bad. they are cleaning everything (dropping the fuel tank and flushing the lines etc)and replacing fuel rail and injectors. BTW I HAD THE BLACK Rings around my exhaust tip from day one!!!

ANY ONE ELSE? or any comments??? they seemed like they were more then willing to clean and replace everything no hassle.

I should probably check/change my sparkplugs also, Any reccomendations?
