When my car is ideling the car for lack of better words sputters and I am scared it is going to stall out. I also feel it dragging when I drive. Is a tune up needed only?
Just two days ago I came to a stop light and while I was there the car started to sputter and I thought it was going to stall out. I was able to put it in park and kind of ran the rpm's a little bit more so it wouldn't sputter. When I stopped it the sputtering came back. I added some oil because it showed I was a little low. Today the car is dragging like it is very heavy and I am not sure what is happening. My friend said it just needs a tune up and the only thing needs replaced is the wires and plugs. I hear that the fuel filter should be replaced or at least checked but he said there is not one there. I have 74,000 miles on it and the only thing I have done to is the oil change. Anyone have any suggestions what it is and what I need to do to keep this car running?
