   Okay this morning the air intake part came off of my engine and I had to drive it quite a way before I could get it put back on.
   I have circled the part that came off today in this pic... (ignore the squiggly line)
   
   
   Since I've had it back in, when I'm accelerating occasionally it will lose power for a split second and pick back up again...
   So like jumping a bit.
   Anyone have any idea what could be causing it?

   Have you put it back on securely so that no excess air is coming in?

   I didn't know what was causing it until I got to my destination, it has it's 'off days' now and then so I didn't think much of it at the time!
