Heheh.
well here goes.
I was driving to get a hot dog from exxon. hot dog and drink is $1 BTW.
So i'm at this stop sign and my car stalls.
I think oh it must be hot.
Restart it and it would restart.
So I sit there with people honking behind me.
Finally It starts and I pull into the parking lot.
Open the hood and notice that the MAF tube was seperated from the part that goes to the engine.
So i reconnect it and tighten everything.
On my way I go.
The S.E.S. light comes on (service engine soon)
I laughed.
When I got back to work I d/c my negative and was fine after that.

This is the last time I go over speed bumps at 100!

100?!? And you came away alive?

(And on an off-off-note...S.E.S., besides serving as an abriviation for 'service engine soon,' are a bunch of Korean singing cuties! But I digress... )

But seriously folks...

How long after you hit that bump before you stalled? Was it the next day? Did you notice anything different sound/smell/etc. b4 u stalled? Just curious. I don't plan to try it.

Mmmmm... $1 hotdogs...
