Default rough idle

got a new transmissin and clutch put on yesterday and when i got the car back it wouldnt idle right. it sounds real choppy. anyway i opened the hood to see if something might b disconected and i realized the intake pipe poped off right where it conects to the throtle body. dont have time to put it back on right now but do u think that could be the reaoson it wont idle right? check engine light came on also.

yes it is. Get off the internet and take the 30 seconds it takes to put it back on.

That would be the issue, but Oxford err Mustangman281, no need to be a tool.

Also disconnect your battery for a few moments to reset the CEL.
