whoo hoo, i was driving back from KFC and my car started to die in the middle of a road. i managed to get the car into an abandoned parking lot where some plumbers were doing some work on a building.
my stillen inake got lose and fell out. my car was at 300-400 rpm, EEP! i asked someone from the building for screwdriver and i got my intake back on secure.
i had to unscrew the bottom bracket. i knew that thing was trouble, i felt like it was pulling my intake outward.
anyway, my tip... always drive with some tools! if it wasnt for them plumbers, my kfc woulda gotten really cold =\

My car stalled today on Rt.1 in Madison, CT when I was turning into Lenny and Joes Fish Tale Restaurant. its a two lane road and I was turning and it stalled in the middle of the opposite lane, good think it was a ricer who actually cared about his POS old style camry. I don't have an intake, but I learned a very valuable lesson never asume your in 1st, I was in 3rd
