i just recently had my converter and manifold replaced, which clogged up and caused me to lose power on a trip. im sure it also caused things to run pretty hot. Now, the car runs fine at highway speeds, but when i slow down and idle, the oil light comes on or flickers and the car loses power. rather embarassing at intersections. but it starts right back up in a minute or two. its also losing oil at an alarming rate. any ideas?
