Calgary,
I searched the forums but couldn't find anything quite like the issue I'm having. When I start my car it idles around 900 rpm's and then after a couple minutes it starts going from 1500 rpm's down till it dies. It fluctuates for a bit and then the revs get so low it stalls. When I go to start it again it struggles so I give it some gas and hold the rpm's at 1000 for a bit and then it idle's fine. Sometimes when I'm driving and come to a stop light it'll die in similar fashion. Anyone have a clue as to what it might be? Thanks
