when i start up my car it will rev up to 500 rpm then die. it keeps on doing this unless i give it some gas, well that used to work up until today, i have to keep it at 3k rpm for a few secs for it to idle at all (then it will idle at about 250 and the whole car will shake badly) , also iv been hearing a high pitch sound that has been gettin louder for a few weeks.... WHAT IS WRONG! the idle problem has been hapening since winter but just got worse this month. its almost unstartable now. PLEASE HELP ME!

my car has been doing the same thing for a while....im thinking that its the fuel filter.
for some reason, it helps to turn your AC on as you try starting the car. then just give it some gas and it should kick in. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
