I had flooded my car the other day and had my car towed in the next day and picked it up the same day. Well on the way home i was driving no problems. Until i had gotten to a stop light at U.S. 31 and 25th street. I was trying to make the turn so i pulled out into the middle of the intersection (well not dead middle but u know what i mean) and on coming traffic was pretty packed. I finally got the clear but it wasn't that huge of a gap. So i hit the pedal 1/2 down and the car didn't go hardly anywhere. Was like driving a weak go cart. It didn't stall but the horsepower in general took a huge dump. I almost got hit by the on coming traffic still coming, however i was lucky enough that the go cart could make it across the intersection ( fairly big intersection btw). Also lately when i'm starting my car it takes 2-3 trys for it to turn over. I don't know whats going on hoping someone can help me out Thanks!. I've been reading other forums about engine problems, i live in southern indiana so its not EXTREMELY hot but its been rather warm.
