Q: Idles and stalls again.
It starts up hard plus I have to tap on the gas to keep it running. Before this problem I had to gently push it pedal or it'll die out. But know like I said it only stay running if I tap the pedal. And for extra info I did notice that when the pedal is on its way down or up the engine will get good acceleration. But if try to just sit on it at any level the engine dies.
My car has 198000 miles.
