Having small start up/idle problems in my 240
I have a 90 240. KA24E motor. In the past few days, I'll start it up, and it will idle kind of rough. It has an automatic transmission, and normally it idles around 1100 when I first start it up, and it's smooth. Lately it'll hop between 700 and 900 for a bit, then smooth out. Also, yesterday morning, I started it up, and it puttered then died out.. I was able to start it afterwards, but that kind of freaked me out. And on the way home from work yesterday, I picked my car up from the carpool location and took a corner semi-sharp, where the car's idle dropped to near 300 I believe, and nearly cut out.. but then was fine.. any ideas?
