    Runs shitty after changing oil pan.....

    ...well i busted my oil pan the other day.......i changed it and spilled a bit of oil around the filler.....i was in a hurry so i figured i'd just let it burn off...it ran fine for about 10 miles.......

    after that 10mi, it started to hesitate as if it were running out of gas....i stopped and gave it fuel.....

    there after, it didnt want to start, so i push started it......then once i got going, the hesitation continued......i had to keep it at high revs just so to keep going.....it idled fine, but it got shitty once i got going or i went up a hill....completely torqueless....

    i did the 'check engine light' diagnostic and it gave me the '1222' code......

    any ideas.....

    on the the oil pump, as i was positioning the pan, i think i might've broken the plastic washer on the rod that sticks up on the driver side of the pump...

    would oil pressure cause this ??......
