emission malfunction light is on!!!

My 2005 Civic Coup has about 70k km on it. I added one bottle of fuel injector cleaner when refueling last time. This isthe first time (the only time) I use fuel injector cleaner. By the end of that tank of fuel, the emission malfunction light came on. it went off once, but came back on again. today I can hear that the sound of the engine is a bit louder and it is harder to accelerate as well. Any ideas? Thanks.

goto auto parts store and have them check the engine code. that will tell you whats wrong. generally its a bad idea to use fuel additives you can buy locally, they are all junk and many can cause problems.

I think you mean the check engine light. If it is, I heard you can get your code checked at Parts Source.
