Default What's wrong with my car?

Just started tonight. Car doesn't idle, I can smell gas, seems like the car is only running on three cylinders. Anyone experience this before? 2002 with 64k miles. The only engine mods are DC header and AEM v2.

Any info would be helpful.

Thanks,

Mike

Pull the plugs and see if one is foul.

CAI could be suspect. Did you run through any water lately?

Smell of gas could be fuel pump.
