My car has been doing this on-again, off-again thing where, when I start the car or engage the clutch, it acts like it's going to stall. I had a mechanic look at it and he said the throttle was dirty, so he cleaned it and that seemed to fix it for a while. However, it started doing it again about three weeks ago, but I just ignored it due to time constraints. Now it's doing the opposite: it's revving to around 2000 RPM every time I start the car or engage the clutch. I can even pop it into 4th and cruise forever at 35 mph with my foot off the gas. It's insane. Can you give me some advice for my bipolar car?

Hi there,

i would start by having the throttle body inspected, check the idle system & throttle cable adjustment check, start here.
