Hey guys,
Issues: My car, when idling, likes to drop in RPMs every few minutes or so down to about 500, and feels like it's about to stall... but will go back to normal (usually) a few seconds after it happens.
When driving, the car occasionally will hesitate when I give it gas, almost like there's a lack of fuel being fed in. It will stutter/shudder very softly, kinda like how your car reacts to running out of gas.
For both occurrences, the check engine light will come on (sometimes), and the car will rev high for about a second or two, and then drop back off again... and the check engine light goes back off.
I thought originally it might be the transmission (automatic), but there are no problems in shifting between gears and everything is smooth otherwise.
Thoughts: I'm sure I need to change the fuel filter, should I be getting my injectors checked? Maybe the fuel lines? Any other suggestions or recommendations?
Thanks as always.
