2006 Chevy Colorado. I think my timing jumped. I went to start then I heard something popped from drive on the side under the hood. I notice the crankshaft sensor was not connected.

Question edited for clarity.
Question moved the Colorado sub-category.

I wonder is you picked something up and the serpentine belt whipped the stick or whatever and disconnected the crankshaft position sensor. Can you reconnect it and start the vehicle?

2006 Chevy Colorado 2.8 4 cyl. Engine is surging under normal acceleration. It has about 85K.

Clean the MAF sensor and the throttle body. Plus the Idle air control motor. Use a toothbrush with brake clean. Just spray the MAF with brake clean both ways..

Rough idle

I had the same exact problem on my 2004 Colorado (3.5L). Cleaned the MAF sensor (with MAF sensor cleaner) and throttle body/plate - cleared it right up.
