Will an opti cause severe power loss??

I slid my car sideways into a ditch and jarred the car a bit. When I pulled it out my power had significantly went down. I had a couple of stumbles and would run normal. The engine sounds just fine, but it seems there is alot of vibration and loss of power. Is it time for a Delteq. How can I test to see the sensor I need on the opti is still good for the Delteq. I will be under the car tommorrow to see if anything is out of whack.

It just seems that I'm driving with my e-brake on and my engine is slightly shaking until up to a descent speed. My fuel consumption is high also. Thanx for your input.

Re: Will an opti cause severe power loss??

Check your O2's to see if theyre still intact? Maybe they got knocked around and arent reading correctly? just a long shot but might be worth checking. You're going to have to start checking all you connections ignitionwise and check for cracked plugs and such. Start with the easy/cheap stuff. Do some poking around and let us know what you see. Need more details.
