I have a 1989 buick electra T type. which is in beautiful shape btw. anyway when i was driving last night i noticed the RPM was moving up and down fast and then the engine was making a weird noise is tarted driving and it was chugging the whole way back home and didnt have much acceleration to it. when i got home i turned it off and waited 5mins and then it wouldnt start at all. the next morning i start it up and the RPM goes all the way to 3 and it sounds like it was reeving and going faster. i moved it to my backyard and it literally was driving its self without me using the gas pedal. i let it rest for about 6hours and now everything is normal agian? whats going on! is it my catalytic converter? the muffler always makes a chugging sound to
its been snowing alot here for the past couple days non stop and very very cold and ALOT of snow everywhere. could that be the problem?
Service engine light come and goes. it seems to come on when the car is at idle. only once and a while mostly it stays off
