Engine problems.....

Recommended Posts

For the past couple of mornings when ive gone to start the car it catches and starts then the revs just drop then it dies...... After a few restarts its fine. On the way back from work yesterday, I started the car and it felt like the revs were gona drop and stall so i revved it a bit and got it to idle at 500rpm, it should be 1000rpm, after a minute of driving the revs shot up to 2000rpm on their own and bounced between 2/2.5k until i restarted the car! When i back off the throttle sometimes the car is a bit kangarooey aswell!!!

 

Any ideas??? Cheers people

I had majorish problems a few months ago and that was all checked and seemed fine, maybe it just needs a good clean up?
