Well my car almost dies on me when i'm driving. When I start it, it wants to immediately die. Then it takes at leas 12 minutes to make it a stable rpm. By stable, i mean staying at 1300 rpm for 3 seconds then almost dieing again. It only started yesterday. I was driving home and with out any hint or dieing so yea. I changed the fuel filter and it still does it.

Remember my car is carbureated. Well today I was diving home and had to put it in neautral and rev a 2 grand rpm to keep it from not dieing the put it in gear.

It just started and with out any hints 2 days ago or even in the morning yesterday. WTF!!

I think it has something to do with the carburetor. Crud from my gas tank, got into the fuel filter and I think went into the carb. But idk why else it would do that. And I was on the freeway and going 50 and my car is fine. Just anything below 2 grand it suks. But idk how reliable it is for more than 10 seconds on the freeway.

Any helpwould be nescasary. THANK YOU!

 

could be dirty fuel carb could need to be adjusted if it aint them two then time to rebuild the carb

 

Yeah, it's either crud in the jets, or water in the gas.

 

... or you have a vacuum leak? Look for a hose that came off and/or spray some starting fluid around the base of the carb or hoses. If the RPM's rise, voila, a leak.

 

+1

Sounds like vacuum to me.

 

Huh ok. (not the huh??? more like the huh i learned something) I'll check for all those after school tomorrow. Thanks you guys, i'll let you know whats up.

 

my car would do the same thing and i thought that i had a vaccum leak turns out most of my valves werent seating right

 

Weird ok. At least it seems like it's fixable with out doin too much work.
