When the vehicle turned over, the engine idle was extremely low and stalled. When the car was going at low speed and in gear, the car was jerking. I could smell the exhaust coming in. We didn't know whats going on. It ran fine above idle. We assumed it was something in the fuel system. Possibly the intake manifold gasket. We later found out it was the Fuel Pressure Regulator. So if your Impala starts to do this, bring it in as soon as possible. It can be serious if it doesn't get repaired
