Help!! So i just started my car to move outta the driveway.
I backed it up and i realized it was running funny. The car was shaking and the idle was rough. I decided i'd try to take it around the block.. the car wouldn't pass 2000rpm so i decided i'd trying putting it in 2nd gear (its an auto).. it passed 2000 rpm then...
went back to drive and coasted basically the rest of the way.
all of a sudden the check engine light flashes about 5 times and then stays on.
the idle is rough, bad smoke smell out of the exhaust.. car sounds like it's going to die.
i'm thinking its a bad ring but im not sure.. or maybe bad MAF
any help!??!
its a 97 camry le I4, about 105k miles.
