was driving home last night and thought about making a video - instead i ended up hitting about 120mph and my power steering went out and my car began missing if trying to accelerate. Wasnt the serp.belt.

any ideas?
 






ok ill do the plug thing shortly. sucks because i just put all new plugs in it last week. I just went up and down the road a few times, and i got into it - its not missing and all its power is back so im confused.. my steering still is mostly gone, i checked my PS fluid and its full.

change your pump while its still got life in it, if you drive the car when its dead, you will kill your rack and pinion.

its only going to get worse from here on out.
 
If the car is running and driving fine now minus the steering issues then you may be ok and not chipped a piston. Most likely when the multiple misfires started the ECM pulled power to keep it from going boom.

Sounds like you could use a new set of plugs and wires, fuel filter, clean the MAF. Then see how it runs. Although w/o a way to actively scan it for KR you're asking for a new motor if you run it that hard again.
