The engine management light comes on when something is up. you need to take it to a garage that can do a diagnostic on it to tell you what is wrong. From the information you have give us it is impossible to answer!

Well if the car is still going it can't be that drastic! take it to a garage.

The engine management light comes on when there is a general problem with the car. You need to take it for a diagnostic check, or do the paperclip test as someone mentioned.
