What was the actual code? Have you looked at the plugs? If I were you I would check your plugs and wires before doing anything else. While you're doing this do a dry and wet compression test to see what kind of shape the rings are in.

If you can get the code looked at (they may still be open until 9:00) that would help, and also if we knew what year and type of Rover. I've had my brush guard on and off a couple of times working on the AC condenser and drier, don't think there is a lot you could hit. Probably just your turn in the barrel. And a code does not mean something will have to be replaced, it may only need to be cleaned. Also, some codes are triggered by 1 event, and the truck waits 2 or 4 drive cycles to be sure it is still there, then turns on the light. So code may have been started yesterday.
Before buying a $50 reader, consider an Ultra Gauge, which is a combo scanner reader digital display of many gauges that plugs into the same port, $70.
