Default HELP!!! Missed a shift tonight 3-4 shift.

Well I missed the 3-4 shift and hit 2nd instead of 4th, I did it while spraying and now I have a code (not known yet) and the car feels like its off a cylinder. I would assume I bent a pushrod. My wideband in the drivers bank indicates a rich condition all the time now too. I guess the problem is in one of the drivers side cylinders, I hope its a PR. I got off the clutch real quick at least. Oil PSI is good and the bottom end seems fine and the engine doesnt even sound messed up with ticking and such like i would have expected. Wondering what might be going on.

Any ideas??

02ws6bird knows all about that. He turned a pushrod or two into pretzels a couple years ago doing the same thing.

LOl, this is funny, I went out there this morning to take a look and the rear pass side injector was unplugged. I plugged it back in, cleared the code, and all is well again.

See the engines I build are so bulletproof that when you **** them up driving the injectors unplug themselves to save the motor.

Thanks for the help guys.
