Had a little scare this weekend - Driving home from the first car show of the year. About half way home I saw a friend down the highway and punched it to catch up. After catching up I let off and decelerating a good amount before getting back on it. As soon as I did the motor sputtered (Limp mode maybe) and lost just about all power. Check engine light came on, oil light, so I pulled over and shut it down. Tried to start her up but nothing, called AAA.


Back at house, ran the obd2. Code - P0107 - Manifold Absolute Pressure/Barometric Pressure Circuit Low Input. She started right up when we got home - but very odd smell coming from the exhaust. Spent the rest of the night cleaning the sensors and intake (pretty dirty). The tow truck guy said it smelt like stale gas? Anyone ever run into a problem like this? I know before the car show I put about 6 gallons in and I wonder if I accidentally put in 89. If that's the case should I just run the car easy for awhile and get 93 in it asap or do I need to flush? Would that cause an odd oder? As far as the smell it's hard to explain (smells a little like gas but not exactly). I read up on the P0107 but nothing mentions odd gas smell from exhaust..Thanks guys
