I got the car back today I guess when I had the oil sending unit replaced the dumbass broke a hose so it caused the car to run lean and the tps needed replaced its running like new now

was it the ac vacuum hose or the brake booster hose?... if I had to guess I'd say the ac vacuum hose, that one is easy to miss if you aren't familiar with it... glad they caught it though and hopefully you didn't get charged for their mistake
