You know what it's like thinking the worst because the car now runs like crap after doing some relatively simple engine chore? I had to drive to and from a job last night keeping my foot on the accelerator while at a stop to keep it from sputtering to a halt. Horrible feeling. Then after a breakfast spent reading the fuel injection and lambda manuals, I launched into the re-disassembly of the intake manifold to maybe see what the problem could be.
The next portion of this post should be prefaced with a hearty, "Well, duh!" So when I pulled the intake manifold free from the cylinder head, I saw that one corner of my newly cut gasket had folded over upon itself, obviously during the reassembly yesterday. Cylinder 1 to be exact. You couldn't ask for a more perfect example of vacuum leak. Jees o pete!
Final sound - Whew. Let the be a lesson to me!
