I just got my car back from the shop... it was rear ended.
Caar was running fine before I brought it in, and now that I got it back as soon as it gets to about 2600rpms it sputters and is making almost no power. I'm not throwing any CEL's or anything either. It was not like this prior to taking it in, but I dont see how doing a rear bumper and a muffler hanger would have anything to do with it.
Anyone have any ideas WTF is goin on here??
could be the fuel pump, ithe impact could have also knocked some crap loose in the filtler.

mine is the gren car and his is the black car
maybe pinched the fuel line from the exhaust getting messed up
^^Yeah definately, like where our fuel filters are. There are a few hoses under there, maybe something is pinched.

Maybe they beat the crap out f it after they fixed it.
Nope I used to work at the shop they wouldn't do that
All you guys picked such complicated things.... turns out it was an easy fix. Changed teh spark plugs and spark plug boots and the car runs mint.
I just got nervous for nothing.
mine some times does it when i have the battery disconnected for a while... had it disconected for 24hours since it was in a show last week end and when i started it up and went to give it alot of gas it just boged sooooo badly... but then like 5 min later is was as good as new dont know why it does it though

actually we were going with the obvious , rear ender + bent exhaust = possible smashed fuel lines
without reading the responses, i thought rear end = fuel problem (if sputtering) so no, we didn't pick the complicated, we picked the obvious.
