today i was driving and i found that when i would take my foot off the gas, the rpms would decline very slowly(while in gear). i knew something was weird, usually my throttle is very responsive. then in 2nd and 3rd gear between 2700 and 3100 roms, it just like repeatedly sttuters for like a second. The whole throttle just feels weird and unresponsive i dunno maybe someboday can help me out.

thanks for your help
 
Well if your taking your foot off the gas while in gear, the rate at which the rpms drop will depend on where the rpms are. if your higher, like anywhere from 4,000 to redline, they are gonna drop faster cause your engine will lug down more. but if they are lower then that, they should drop to fast as for your engine isnt lugging very bad. i dunno about or what you mean by the stuttering tho.
