i started having problems with my car recently, like whenever i start the car it starts but then soon as the rpm goes down to like 1 its starts shaking like it wants to turn off so i would step on the gas and it wouldnt do anything till it turn off, so i would start it again and the same thing soon as the rpm went down the car would start shaking the engine sounded all wierd like it wanted to turn off. sometimes when i step on the gas it be fine i have to warm it up but if i didnt do that it would starts acting funny and soon as i put it on drive or reverse and step on the gas just a lil bit it would shake then turn off. u think is bcuz of the cat that i removed it and just welded a pipe to it?? basicly i made my own straight pipe. or u think it could be something else??? also today it kept on giving the picture of the engine on the millege and it would say engine over reft and sounded wierd and i was not even steping on the gas even if i did step on it nothing would happend the engine would just be shaking till it turn off, so i left it off for couple secs then turn it on and it was fine. also like im just crusing and i want to step on it it dont respond right away it takes like maybe 3 secounds or so thats another problem i have so any seggestion let me no. i dont want to go to a macanic so he can just charge me up he ass for something simple u no. but let me no what ya think. i need to no asap cuz is messing up little by little.
