I just had a cracked radiator replaced. When I got the vehicle back there is a hesitation accellerating from a stop. There appears to be a smell in the car that started this morning. The repairman did a 40 point inspection is there a possibility that this broke something else?

If he disconnected the battery when he replaced the radiator the computer probably has to go thru a relearning process or there's a loose connections somewhere

It turned out that the air flow sensor was disconected for rad repair. Plugged it back in and all is well.

You were right.

Thanks
