Q: Engine falls on face.

asked by on December 31, 2016

I ran code scan and got p0355 and p0357. When you give it gas in drive it falls on it's face. To get it to go anywhere you have to barley put your foot on the pedal and it slowly gets to a good speed. Also the exhast is cut right after the hookup from the manifold
