Hey everyone

New owner and member. I bought a well cared for one owner 2002 Boxster S with 42k miles earlier this year. Love the car and have put ~4k fun loving miles on with no concerns, until this morning. Yesterday I drove the car to work and back (~35 miles) and took my son to dinner (~5 miles). I let him drive the car home (~5 miles), he's never driven a stick but rides bikes and understands a clutch. He did the normal stall, buck, and miss shift a new driver does and got us home.

Car would not start this morning, so I took another car and decided to look into the issue tonight. Car does start now, idles high- about 1000 rpm, and sputters and dies when I goose the gas.

What gives? Son's lesson seems coincidential but...
