Exactly. Once, after a T/B cleaning, I didn't get one of the hoses that vent the Valve cover back on to the plastic intaken (on the underside) tightly. I noticed the car was running a little rough on the way to work (figured it was just burning off the excess choke cleaner), but, when I got in the car to go to lunch, she'd start and die. Luckily, I found the problem quickly. The hose had popped off.
