check your wires for good connections. Check your vacuum lines/connections. They may have moved something around while under there accidentally. And just for grins, check your oil level.

Agreed. It sounds like they may have dislodged a wire or not put enough oil in it.

Since they did it, do you have any waranty?

at the ford dealership where i work, the other techs are always looking for a chance to pull a prank on me...maybe they unhooked a vacuum line or something, thinking you would catch it right away.
