Need help ASAP plz, just started my car and it idles rly low and sounds as if it's about to shut off, as if it's being choked. Car has no power and eventually would shut off on its own. Anybody got any ideas to what this might be

Well we don't have much to go on, but it could be 1 of many things.

I'd start with fuel pressure, go rent a fuel pressure testing kit from autozone for 25 smackers, and confirm your line is within PSI specs.

Being you have a 99, is it throwing any code? and do you how to check for stored codes?
