Well today when I got off of school, I went into my car and got ready to start it, but the battery was almost completely dead, the lights in the dash were REALLY faded and all. I jumped it and it started up, took it upto the gas station for gas, put the gas in, and it wouldnt start up again. Had my dad come up and jump it again... Driving down the busy street, waiting to turn onto my block, I kill the car (me being fairly new with stickshift), and it didnt start up again.. so we charged the battery for like 5 minutes.. turned off the car and it started back up this time.. I went to take it around the block, and the RPM wouldn't go passed 1,500-2000 ...... It's like it wasn't reading my pushing down the gas.. My idle is also messed up, it goes from like 400-2000 sometimes. Also, when it was driving the RPM was toggling, or bouncing around.. if I floored it the RPM shot to 0, but thats not REALLY how much it was... obviously, but idk, I don't know whats wrong with my car, it wont go passed 1500-2000 rpm... anybody have any ideas?


BTW:

1990 Eclipse GS Turbo
