| I am no expert but spark plugs need to be changed I am sure and probably a new fuel tank. |

need to do the obvious.
check fuel, (getting fuel to rails? what psi, condition of fuel) check spark (fouled plugs, old plugs) |

The ignition switch possibly? Surprisingly it could be the battery too?
I know you can usually bring it to a shop to get it checked out and they usually can run a couple tests on it 2 or 3x Does it idle okay when it runs before it shuts off because usually it if it's revs crazy it's a sensor or misfire Also is it a 5 speed or auto? |

Jen wrote The ignition switch possibly? Surprisingly it could be the battery too? ignition switch wouldnt be an issue besides trying to start. cars dont run on the battery they run on the DC voltage the alternator puts out. you can disconnect a battery and drive a car if the alternator is putting out the current current |

Surprisingly it could be the battery too? Yeah if back fires sounds more like spark plugs for sure^^^^ I remember my BMW would go crazy like the RPMS and rev when it needed sparks plugs but idk it could be a lot of different things with the rev best options have it checked out , tried to help the best I can if you lived local id check it out with my BF lol |
