That Chevron stuff right? Good stuff right there. 
Wow I feel for you Jessica, but don't be disappointed it might be the MAF, so don't get mad at your Mech yet, if all this time he did alot of things for you then suddenly turn around and take all your money, then that's when you consider looking for another Mechanic, but that's if all else fails.

I was driving to school this morning, and when I was about 2 blocks away, my car starting shaking violently, so I thankfully I was on a red light and had time to restart the car. The car failed to start the first 2 attempts, on the third it finally started.
40 min ago, as I was leaving school, it took me a very long time to get to 20 mph (car struggle to get to 2k rpms), and the car just kept shaking and the check engine light kept blinking. I pulled over 3 times in the span of 10 min. I was actually heading to the mechanic too, but my dad informed me he left on vacation!!!

It's called seafoam and its from kragen, I heard it's good, so I'll give it a try.

That must really suck
You shoulda taken it to the Mechanic anyways just to see what he says (even with dad gone) let's hope it's that MAF.

I meant, my dad informed me that the mechanic left on vacation. The mechanic will be back on Tuesday & I will drop off the car asap after school. The MAF has got to go.
