my car is going on r/r on fri. all of a sudden the car starts to really over fueling so i go to change the water temp sensor. on the last turn the socket slipped of and snapped the blue bit of the sensor so had to go buy 1 from tms (because getting a better 1 from woodford or md wouldnt be here on time plus a atm machine ate my bank card for no reason) then being pissed off i snapped the 3bar pip;e off but i have a spare. but to the problem the cars over fueling has been stopped but the car splutters when driving and when you go on boost the car shuts dont like its doing it for safety. does any1 have a clue what could be the problem as i need to get it working for fri.
