Hey guys i was on my way to my first day at my new job today and my truck was running good then all the sudden droped power like i had run out of gas...I pulled over and sounded like a leak near the intake or possiblly far end of the valve cover...anyway the car idles fine but wont go over 35mph and has no power but will accelerat slow...when im still and give it gas it vibrates and kinda of feels like its miss firing on the right side...any ideas please help
