My car still sucks..help please!...

For my 13bt corolla. Before I left on vacation about two weeks ago, I was moving my car a couple meters, and I barely had the intercooler on when I was backing it up the intercooler fell off and the car died, I put it back on tight and remounted it and the car still ran like ****.

I can somewhat get it started and have it idle ok then I rev it up and it kinda sounds even more raspy than usual and it backfires then when I let off the idle drops too like 250 then it slowly dies..

not too mention I never ever did sort out why my secondaries werent firing.


wtf is going on, engine toast?? its getting depressing working on this thing, I keep going backwards it seems....

Exclamation help in deed

Are you TMIC or FMIC?

FMIC- most likely unrelated from intercooler falling off.

TMIC- Try this get the car idling then spray carb clean around the exten-plenum and vacuum line's, assembly's. Most likely something has just falling apart do to the jolt of the TM falling off its place. unplugging the small 3:16th vacuum line's going into the hard lines.

let us know how that work's out always here to help.

FMIC, it seems like it happened immediately after it fell off.
