Ref. CEL/MIL/SES -Go to Autozone and have it scanned for free and then post them-possibilities here could be one of the following below

1.Excessive fuel pressure can be cause by restricted fuel return line
2.Defective Oxygen Sensors.
3.Leaking injectors and fuel pressure regulator.
4.Coolant temperature sensor out of calibration.
5.Restricted air intake system.
