Car Idling Problem - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #40682 5 posts Started by giang723
hey guys, my car for some weird reason started to hav idling problems, the revs jump up and down at 800rpm and when i accelerate, it lags, but then kicks in and out, but basically the car struggles to reach speed, i know the air filter is really dirty but i haven't had a chance to check the sparks yet, have tried to reset the air-fuel ratio but it didn't help, so i was wondering what should i replace? might go shopping in the morning
buy some carb cleaner and clean out your aic
^ 99% its probably that, but also change the fuel filter.
