Car was running fine. Came out an hour later to go out and the car shook, misfired and kept stalling. Popped the hood and found a hose had come loose off the valve cover. I hooked it back up but it didn't fix the problem. Could running with the hose loose and disconnected cause more serious problems? Later on the car just turned over without a hint of starting like a sensor shut everything down. I then was getting codes. P0190, P1132 and P1152.
The engine will start if it has been sitting over night. Once it starts it will run rough. Revving the engine causes it to shake more and shut off. Once off it will then be in shutdown mode like a sensor kills fuel and spark. Again the next day it will start again and do the same.
Going back to the hose falling off, this hose leads to the air intake. I cleaned the mass-air sensor and made sure all vacuum hoses were secure. My mechanic friend said it sounds like a fuel pump. I don't think so. Could I have blown the Fuel Rail Pressure sensor?
Does anyone have any suggestions?

The fuel filter is about 6 months old. I think it has something to do with the vacuum hose that came off. Something was unbalanced after that. Please help me out folks. Thanks

What year model is the car? Your computer will try to compensate for a vacuum leak. You could try and disconnect the battery cable and let it set for about 10 mins. Then start the car and see if it helps. Usually unmetered air will cause a lean code yet your throwing rich codes. Have you checked the inertia switch.

The year is 2000. I have disconnected the battery for 1/2 a day. It will start but again it will shake and stall. I am not sure where the "inertia switch" is. Can you give me more information please? Thanks

The inertia switch is in the trunk on the driver side behind the tail light. The car really shouldn't start at all if it is tripped. I was trying to think of simple things to check first. When my fuel pump went out it went out all at once. It died and wouldn't come back. Have you checked all of your spark plugs they can blow out. Could be the plug blew and the cop knocked the hose lose. Which hose came off ? Can you post a pic?
