Hit a pothole. Need help!
Ok so my buddy drives a 2006 ss/sc and the other day he let someone drive the car and they hit a pothole and the car immediately shut off. Now its been a few days later and his car is running weird. It starts on like the 2nd or 3rd crank but never on the first try. Also he said that the car accelerates slower than before and that the rpms drop and rise for a few seconds after it starts up. Shifting from 1st to 2nd now is bad. It feels like the car is gonna stall, and he said 2nd to 3rd is even worse. Anybody have a clue what is going? And there are no mods on the car. Thanks for any help!

Probably jarred something loose!
Start with everything in the fuse box under the hood,pressing down on them to make sure they are not part way out,concentrate more on the relays but do the fuses to.
Another thing is the connectors on the SC and any other connector,ecm and main fuse box connectors..
Also look at the vaccum hoses on the and around the purge selinoid and bypass valve located on the right side of the rocker cover make sure they are on properly or not cracked.
