RPM Problem. Car stalling. Need help ASAP.
Hello everybody, OK I own a 2000 civic Si. This is my story
I was coming from school and I was driving in 5th gear then I down shifted to 4th because I was dropping my speed and whenI step on the gas my RPM wouldn't pass over 4 rpms it was kind of hesitating on me. So i pulled over while engine was running I gas it hard and still wouldn't go over 4 rpm. I keep on trying that and same result. So I shut off the car turned it back on and worked fine . Then when I step on the gas NOW i get this weird whistling sound coming from the intake (AEM short ram) before I wouldn't get this sound. I only get this when I let go the gas pedal then step on it again
Any help really appreciated. Thanks

RE: RPM Problem. Need help ASAP.
it looks fine i have checked it already. do you think it has to do with my Idle air control valve. My throttle plate was dirty with all this black crap. So my mechanic cleaned with carburetor cleaner then he turned on the car and gave in a couple squirts in there. He said it wouldn't hurt it. Then my rpm needle started acting up weird. He adjusted the screw on top of the throttle body and the rpm worked fine but I think my Valve might of gotten damage with that fluid
