Car shuts off sometimes when i close my hood
Hey guys i was wondering if y'all could help with a problem i suddenly had today. I was leaving from getting my car inspected and hit a bump in the road going maybe 2-5 mph after this my car just cut power and shut off 10 feet down the road. I had a check fuel cap light come on so i let it idle for a bit and it died and wouldn't crank. I tightened all the vacuum hoses and clamped them since there weren't clamps before. The light turned off after that. It cranked and idled okay until i shut the hood and it cut off right away. I drove it around some afterwords and shut the hood a couple times and it seemed okay. Then a bit later at the store after leaving my car idling i shut the hood and it cut off again. The car has a v1 t trim with the injectors, maf, boost a pump, and weld in flowmasters.

Okay checked those today. They look snug. Any other suggestions? It would be 100x better if i could fix this myself and not spend my last bits of money!

Replaced the pcv valve elbow piece where it connects to the valve cover cause it looked bad. The car seemed good for like an hour but then when I shut the passenger door it shut off. Never shuts off with the drivers side door. Only turns off sometimes when I shut the hood or passenger door. I dropped it off at Shrader Performance. Steve's the man so he'll definitely be able to figure it out.
