hey guys so my friend borrow my car to get to work last week, and while he was driving the car suddenly lost rpm, no matter what he did step on on gas, also tried down shifting the rpm stayed the same around 200, then as he stopped at the tollbooth the car stalled out, so he tried starting it again, as he started my car flames just shot out the exhaust like i'm running NOS in there1 lolz i can't come up with and conclusion to this problem besides one of the fuel injector is stuck open. and ideas what else would cause this? thanks.

Did you lose the floorboard? If so you may have what he said /\.

On a series note, I would check if an injector is stuck open. It could maybe be the maf but not positive.

i caught my bumper on fire one time. ECU went bad one injector at a time so i spliced a couple injectors together. worked for a little while, then that injector signal went full on and turned the car into a flamethrower.
some lady pulls up along side me as i'm sitting at a light in traffic and goes "hey, your car is on fire." and i'm like "lol whatever." then i saw flames in the rearview. it was pretty great.

Granny shiftin' not double clutchin' like you should. You're lucky that hundred shot of NOS didn't blow the welds on the intake!

Now, you and the mad scientist got to rip apart the block... and replace the piston rings you fried.
