damn nice scare this morning.
I let my friend borrow my jeep for a few days so I'm driving the cobalt to work. Getting on the highway I punch it and hit 2nd gear, flashing CEL, car is slowing down and just dies. Smoke is coming from under the hood. OH ****, or course now I only have the cobalt and I'm about a mile from home. Thankfully when I hit second it just popped a few relays up, pushed em down and she fired right up like nothing was wrong. I gotta stop driving this car everyday lol

Yea i banged 2nd pretty hard one time and my car just shut off like i turned the key off lol. I pulled over and it started right back up. The worst was when i was wheel hopping like crazy threw 1st and the car shut off and it would not start for like 25 mins that sucked. 
I thought something really got fucked up but its been fine ever scince.

I backfired wot in between 3rd and 4th on 347 with the old cobalt and she died. started back up when I turned the key though. I used to hit nasty bumps when they did construction on southern state and it would stall too. weird. no cobalts at bald hill again wtf.
