i recently just did a tune up on this vehicle also, and it was fine yesterday it idled at 700rpms, but today it gets stuck at like 1500rpms and then slowly goes down and it vibrates and shakes when i first start it, and sometimes acts like it doesnt want to start, my oil dipstick is showing that its bone dry, this has happened multiple times, i added 1 Quart today and its right above the add mark now, it did it with regualr oil so last oil changed i switched to full synthetic quaker state, what is wrong with my vehicle???....please tell me ...thank you

sounds like your buning oil fast. either rings or valves are worn out (unless you see a puddle under the car every day). time to get engine rebuilt or new vehicle
