WJ - Car wont Stay Running after I give it gas
So today out of nowhere I go out to the car to go to the store and when I put the car in reverse and started backing up, it ran a little choppy, very slight, I thought maybe I had a slight flat. Get out and checked, and nothing, got back in, reversed again and felt it again, but then the car stalled.
Had trouble starting the car after that, but with giving it gas it stayed on, but when I let off the gas.... the car stalled.
Did this a few times, but with letting my car warm up longer, and still no luck.
Lastly, I turned the car on with ease (not needing to give it gas) and it started and stayed on. no issue. let it run for a little, still no issue. While still in park, I gave it some gas for a second, but after that, when I let off the gas, the car stalled again.
Any thoughts? Hoping its nothing major as I'm broke.
