I got some weird issue which I am not sure what the cause is.
I was driving and suddenly my rpm's went up and then came back. I didn't thought much of it at the time.
I parked, went to see someone and came back and drove of.
After a few minutes, rpm went up again and then instantly dropped down, on the middle of a busy road. No fun, I tell you that!
Car didnt wanted to start right away. After a few minutes the car started and all seemed well again.
I drove of and about 20 sec later rpm's up and instant down and up and down till the engine stalled again.
Some guy who saw me struggling was so kind to tow me home..
Next day, (today) I cleaned my oil catch can since I thought it might be full (which it was a bit) I thought the contents might be blown back into engine giving me this issue.. After clean and reinstalling I drove to my parents (short distance) all went well. I parked and I left engine on and after few minutes while I was reving the engine, same thing happend. Rpm's dropped to 0 and engine stopped.. After few minutes engine starts fine.
I left the car for few hours and drove back home later. Seems this issue will pop up when engine gets to certain temperature.
Its kinda looks like a distributor failure but I am not sure.. (i'm no expert..)
Does someone have a clue what the problem might be?
I dont feel safe to drive now.
Thanks in advance for your reply.
