IDK, that's kinda weird. If the duct was loose, wouldn't it just be sucking in
more air??........ since it would be drawing it straight and unrestricted (and unfiltered..YUCK!) from the outside air. Not saying it's not involved, but I doubt it's because it was starved for any intake air. If I found I was running without filtration, I'd do an immediate oil change and think about cleaning the MAF.
