Ive been having trouble with my engine recently
For a while now Ive noticed while I'm in gear and the car is reving mid to higher rpm, as soon as i put my foot on the clutch the revs drop and drop below the normal idling rpm(around 300rpm) and then rise again and then idles normally at around 600rpm. This didn't bother me much but last week while i was driving and put my foot on the clutch to coast to the traffic lights and the engine cut out! I only noticed because the steering felt heavy and then i noticed all the dashboard lights on. I turned the key and the engine started instantly so that was good. Its happened to me 4 times this week. Im guessing the revs just fall too low before rising again and the engine just stalls
It also feels a bit down on power and when i floor it, the engine just makes noise but doesn't do much pulling lol! and when its idling and i do a quick tap on the accelerator, the engine shudders and the rpm doesn't rise.
Hope its not a terminal problem
Anyone know what might be going on?
