Started having trouble when i went to DOMINOS to get some pizza then when i got to my car.... CEL is on >< this happen on July of this year... anyways drove the car then tried to turn my car off before i left again... started right up then i got annoyed and worried because of the CEL on so tried to turn off my car again near at my house.. Thats where everything went downhill :( my car started but only goes below 1k rpm then shuts off :( tired to press gas but still dies... luckily i was with my friends and was near my house so we tried to push it and tried to start it and it did!! but CEL is still on :(.... Then when i got home tried to clear the code(Biggest mistake of my life) i cleared it w/o having to get the code :( FML so now i dont know what could've caused that... So i tried driving the car again after two days..felt the diference in power and all that so i was scared and went home.. While i was shifting i felt like a jerk or stutter in the car... So then i got home, tried to see what could've caused that and still no idea... so the next day i started the car and check engine light turned on... read some thread here of what couldve cause the issue so i tried to do all of it..Then i left the country for a month..i bought a code reader before i left btw.. so i came back from my vacation, got the code and it was P0340 code for Camshaft Position sensor... so tried to change the CAS but i notice that the last owner swapped it with 1G CAS... so now i cleared the code and read some thread here again.. so after i took off the TBelt cover and put it back on again, turn on the car and my rpm went straight to 2K so i was worried :( then tried to turn it off few times and still the same.. then when i accidently moved the steering wheel the rpm went back to 900 RPM... DID I MENTIONED THAT THE IDLE IS BAD IT GOES FROM 900 TO 800 BACK AND FOURTH... before it stayed of 1k but now idk what happened.. then after that i thought my air filter is bad so i changed it bought a spectre aair filter because the last owner took off just the air box and swapped it to a cone filter... anyways got the filter on and tried to rev it and now when i revv it up the car feels like it wants to die :( ALso i forgot to mention that i have a little leak in flex pipe exhaust becasue the guy in exhaust shop said i had one.... anyways i dont know what to do now i dont have any trasnportation to go to work so i cant make money and im broke as hell right now :( would aprreciate not to spend my savings money to go to school but i need the car also so if you guys know the problem you can tell me :( I really need help guys sorry if i made this so long i just want you to be cleared on what happened :( i want to keep this car until i can buy an EVO8 or 9so pls guys HELP ME !
