Default 240 go poof...thank you to Turkeyspot for help

I-75 nb......heading out for a sunday drive.....go to pass in 5th gear and...poof...something happens...i loose all throttle power to the car....the gas peddle wants to send gas, but nothing is going through...i try downshifting....no.go.....so i putter to the side of the road, and shut the car down...no smoke, no knocking, no fluid loss...

thank goodness for AAA.....and as we were waiting for the tow...Nick(SN: Turkeyspot) pulls off to lend a hand....i big kind thank you for wanting to help out an injured 240. We havn't had a chance to pull the sparks and check anything out, but it's our "big plans" for the weekend. Hoping it's something simple!!!

unless they were like, just laying in the trunk or something.

basically if your running a sidemount with no bumper opening, you might as well not be running anything at all.

and i dont know which jay, but im guessing he heatsoaked his car and did damage or something along those lines...
