when i drive at constant speed, car will do 1 of two things. it will either speed up slightly or slow down slightly. when i come to stop for longer than 10 secs and car is in nuetral, rpm jump to about 2K without me pushing on accelerator or rpms fall under 500 and engine dies. i appreciate all advice you can give me.

a hose (i think in the vacuum system) that goes into the exhaust manifold has a huge crack in it. that is probably the problem
