    found what came off. is little cap thing from radiator hose? dunno what exactly it does? Regardless; replaced it, still aint goin right. oh ****.

    Starts cold, then revs fall and almost cuts out, need to rev it and warm it up before it stops dying. Then seems to want to stall when apply load to it/put it in gear and try to drive.

    Thinking maybe should get it towed to a shop.... but WTF I JUST CHANGED THE HEADLIGHTS! pos...

    Ok, gave Seb a call today, told him issue, he suggested that maybe it's the MAF sensor. Computer likely corrected it before, and after taking battery out, probably reset.

    Unplugged the MAF sensor as advised, ran a bit rough, but drives somethin crazy at higher rpm!!!! feels heaps more powerful! maybe it's overfueling, but meh

    Many thanks to Seb

    Make sure you replace the MAF reasonably quickly - if it is overfuelling too badly you dont want bore wash to occur and damage the pistons/cylinder
