Default anyone know what could cause this???

if my car is just idling and i quickly tap the gas pedal just the slightest bit, it almost bogs out and dies. RPM's drop to almost 2 or 3 hundred.

It never dies, but I was just wondering what would cause it do to this.....thanks

I would first check vacuum lines. Does your car also have a surging idle?

As far as I know this is normal...

my car does it too, if I just barely tap the gas, like at a stop light, the revs drop just a hair.

It's no big deal! (if I'm wrong please let me know!)
