I have a 1990 celica st. it ran great for the first 3 months i had it, now it is really acting up, i have taken it to two different shops to have them fix whats wrong with it and neither of them can tell me. first, when i start it up in the morning it idles at about 2000 rpms, after about 2-3 minutes, it drops to around 900 rpms and barely seems like it is running. it kind of sputters. then when i drive it, it accelerates normally until it hits 3000rpms then pauses, and then continues accelerating, it hesitates at 3k rpms for roughly .5 - 1.5 seconds even at full throttle. it is a 5 speed, and it does that in every gear. and then i started noticing the oil lit will come on at idle, if im at a red light and put it in neutral, the oil light comes on. now it stays on until i am over 2500 rpms, once i reach about 2600 rpms the oil light shuts off. i have no clue what is wrong with the car, and no one else can tell me. if you have any opinions or comments please let me know, i would greatly appreciate any help at this point. thank you
