I'm thinking its the timing belt but, i'm not sure..and how would i go about fixing it without spending a lot of money..?

Its going to be hard trying to adjust a timing belt when we have no cams in are car. Your BAC may be bad or the solenoid below it.

Well..today it did the strangest thing...after it warmed up-instead of going to low rpm's and almost stalling..it stayed at 2500 rpm's..and did NOT move...until i started driving and switching gears then it would go up and down the rpm's like its suposed to...what the <bleep> is that????

Today when i turned the car on at the gas station (after i pumped gas) it went all the way up to about 5-6000 rpms for about 5 min,'s and then it eventually went down to 2500 and it stayed there until i started moving..but, even then it wouldn't go all the way down if i were at a stop light or something..it would go to 25 and stay there....what does that mean?

Today while the car was warming up or even when i have it in neutral...the rpm's were going to 2500 and it felt like i was pressing the gas..but, i wasn't....
what does that mean?
I know what you mean about paranoia...everytime i get in my car i wonder what new noise i'm going to hear..lol
