ok i have noticed a slight problem with my car. lets say im cruzing along about 55-60. if i let off the gas and push in the clutch, the rpm's drop down to dormal idle speed and then bounce back up to around 1500 and stay their for a sec then fall down again. it does this continuously until i reach around 20 mph or so. what does this sound like? i know its prolly not that big of a deal, it just annoys me to hear it kinda rev a little on its own. any help would be great, thanks in advance, forrest.

put it in 4th gear while going 25 or so MPH, and floor your car, if your RPM's go up, then back down, your clutch is def. bad.
edit* that is, if it is doing this in gear, you didnt really explain.Comment

Mine does it every now and then. It hasn't gotten better or worse in the 2 years I've owned it.\'00 f-bird 3.8 M5 coupe, pewter metallic<br />Torsen LSD, Pro 5.0 shifter, Spec stage 1 clutch, Y87 muffler, aftermarket stereo<br />-more fun than the Oldsmobile it replaced...Comment

Spray some WD-40 or PB-Blaster on the throttle spring.Originally posted by lilchubby:
