Hello my car will start ( just) but will not go, it seams like the fuel is not getting through, I have just changed the fuel filter thinking that it was that.
but it is still doing the same thing maybe not as bad but it still wont hold its revs it is running really rough,
i am a woman so not real good with cars but really can't afford to get it fixed unless I do it my self
any help would be great
kindest regards kazz

If it is running really rough, that could be the reason it wont hold idle or accelerate. Do you hear any whistling when it is running? If so look for any vacuum lines that may be leaking or have fallen off. If the check engine light is on, you need to have it scanned for codes to see what failures the computer sees.
