Re: Oh no.......

one time, the intake pipe going into throttle body popped off cuz the stupid mechanic didn't tighten it properly. and well...

i was driving and everything was going fine until there was a sudden loss of power and my car kept dieing on me, i had to keep the gas pressed in order to keep the car on. lots of black smoke kept coming out the back, and i couldn't go passed 5-10 mph. my car was stuttering and spitting, and shaking, and rattling, everything u can think of it was doing it. i looked under the hood and noticed the pipe was off. started it back up, took a while to get it going, and it drives fine now.

I don't know if my story is related in any way, but just seeing if any info helps. might have a leak?
