Uh Oh?

As for why it stalled, it oculd have been a plethora of different reasons... My guess is that, being at 50 mph, the trans could have been in overdrive. Then, you hit the snow, coming to an abrupt halt, and before the ECU realized it was slowing down, then wheels had nearly stopped. Being in OD, before the trans could unlock and downshift, the engine RPMs dropped too low and it stalled.

That's my best guess... If it only happened once, don't worry about it. It's not worth worrying over. A one-time occurrence isn't anything to sweat over.

if the filter got wet, it would restrict airflow and that might cause chugging
 






Intake is good to go, I cleaned off the top of the battery n a few random other things.
Runs like normal, there's a slight ticking noise coming from near the fan and alternator.. I can pin it down.
Belt needs changing I found, it has little cracks in the ribs.
