Ruff Start Up,Low RPM'S

[JPsBored]

hey guys,, just noticed lastnite that when i start it up, it revs at bout 1.5-2, than after couple seconds relaxxes down to .5 .. never went that low before, and it rumbles, and shakes and putters sounding like its about to die.

after driving for awhile, it gets lil better but still does it in park, in drive stopped at a light.

just put it 25$ of 92 gas,, and just got oil change day before, and guy even air blew my air filter was nasty.

why would this happen after all 3 positive things been done laast 2 days?

BTW ITS A 2000 V8 WITH 82,000 MILES.

bad sparks? wires? alternater?

did this work

more air flow and higher octane gas will make it change strategies.. it is prolly just relearning a new fuel strategy. better hope the guy didnt blow air threw the filter the wrong way and all the dirt got threw and now u have a contaminated MAF

dont tell me that :q:q:q:q,,lol he was a young dude too.

i used 92 octane,,, and before that i loaded it with shell Vpower 93.

so if it is the air filter and the MAF is f***, than what?

cool,, hey how do i change bulb on my license polate ?
lol i slid a str8 head driver thru the slots,, and the lil casing came loose, think i broke the snaps,,lol

 

[itsnotmydaddys]

u prolly did break the clamps on it, theyre real delicate. to change the bulb... open the trunkn and take the liker off and the bulbs should be right there, just pull em out and change em. i pretty sure thats how, i did mine like 4 months ago so i kinda forgot.

My car would shake all over the place at idle in the morning or cold start (even when hot out) and it was a fuel injector. I don't think my idle would drop that low though...
