I am a mechanic and i am guessing that your carborater is plugged.

You're joking, right?

I'm not a mechanic, and I'm a girl, and even I know that a fuel injected car is lacking a carburetor. Your answer is insulting and rude. Quit trolling around answer.com and find yourself a hobby.

As a driver of a 2004 Chevy impala LS 3.8 (not supercharged), and a girl (non-mechanical), the first thing I would do is take your car to an autozone or parts retailer who will run a diagnostic on your car and tell you what codes come up. If you don't have a mechanic to ask, that is.

The short answer is that it could be any number of things. I'm sorry I don't know more, but that should give you a start. Autozone runs the diagnostic for free, which is super nice of them.

How long will a take you to pass a driver that is going 50 mph but your going 60 mph?

Your relative speed is 10 mph. At that speed you will cover an ordinary car length (4.5 metres) in 1 second. It will take twice as long for you to go from immediately behind to immediately in front: so 2 seconds. For driving safety, you should have started from 2 seconds behind and move back into lane when you are 2 seconds ahead. A grand total of 6 seconds.
