After using COPIUS amounts of Gorilla Tape, and one Commute to work later, I'm CONVINCED that if anyone has the problem of losing ALL power, engine stalling or threatening to stall, as well as surging or bucking, the VERY FIRST thing that should be inspected (and don't just feel it in the car, ACTUALLY REMOVE IT and look at it at from ALL angles!) is the Intake pipe!
