Here's the story: Got some friends and headed over to a wet, empty parking lot after it had got done raining down here. Did like 3 laps mostly in first gear revving around 7k sliding around two tree parking things (you know the trees with dirt around them in cement in parking lots) and then we went to my friends. Anyway the car seemed fine after that, besides the smell like something was burning up in my car (yeah i'm an idiot and don't know how to check ****).

*Flash Foward*

Next day coming home from school. Car has horrible idle, idle's around 100-200 rpm, jumps to 1000 sometimes when I brake in neutral, or very rarely when sitting in neutral at a stop light, and then dies back to 100-200 rpm. The car shakes horribly. When i get out of the car there is a burnt rubber sort of smell or burnt something. I've been throwing a code 12 for a while and I get about 15 mpg. Also if i rev up the engine quick or whenever i easy out of gear (not above 3k rpm, i'm not that stupid) i hear a chirping sound although this is probablly just my enigine mounts i though i'd mention it, i also fell this could be my clutch.

Any help would be appreciated, you have the right to call me a dumbass and so on, just please help me, i will try to take pics tommorow of my vaccum lines and intake manifold since i figure this may be the problem with a loose connection somewhere and i thought i heard a whisleting from there the other day.

Cliff Notes:
High rpm fun in an empty wet parking lot
100-200rpm shaky idle the next day, rarely jumping to 1000rpm
Burnt smell
Possible vaccum leak?, clutch problem?, help!?

Running a P13, H22A in my EG Sedan

Edit: Forgot, now the engine/exhaust has a very throatty sound to it with a slight ricery rattle.

 

blown rings, valves fucked... many things could have happened. do a compression test and i can almost guarentee you're going to be reading LOW

 

I'll pick up a compression checker thing tommorow i guess, i hope it's not internal damage

 

I'd hope for something else.

I think the problem is fixed. I think it was because i left my lights on by accident and my battery was drained. I found out whenever i push on the brake or turn on my lights, my idle drops a little. Anyway my idle is back to normal

would just like to point out that your cannot see the 100 rpm mark on ur tach

ont he tach you see the 1000 rpm, then there is a small line then the stop thing (when the car is off the needle rests on it)

well that small line above that stop thing is 500 rpms
