Recently I bumped another car and ever since the car hasn't run right. We replaced the fuel filter, did some clean up work on the injectors, replaced the rotor and cap, as well as the spark plugs. It at least will stay started now, but until you get it out of first gear has no power. Is the only thing that this could be the transmission or is there something else less expensive we can try first? I would appreciate any help I can get on this. Thank you

If it was in an accident, check to make sure the inside of the catylatic converter wasn't knocked loose and causing the problem. Also, has the check engine light come on? Have you checked fuel pump pressure?
