This morning I started my car up and forgot that I left it in first, so I just let off the clutch to get my self situated. Naturally, it stalled.... :bang: . When I went to start her back up, it kindof sputtered and then quit. The next time, it sputtered some, then took a while and finally got started to normal. On the way to work (20 miles exactly), I noticed that my "XXX miles to empty" went down about 35 miles instead of the regular 20. What did I do to my car??? I'm thinking that everything might be ok when the computer resets itself on the way home from work, but I'm a little concerned since a brand new engine shouldn't be struggling to start. I smelled a lot of gas too, so I may have flooded it a little bit, and that could also explain the loss of gas. Any ideas?

Yes, you may have flooded it I suppose. More then likely everything is fine, though.

That is very good to hear I don't feel like taking it to the dealer again.
