Hi my car has has a check engine light on before and it goes away. What it does is it won't move very fast and the tacometer clicks at 0-500rpms. Then when that goes away for a while, when the car is stopped it idles very low like it's going to stall and it resets my stereo and my clock and it idles rough for a few days and goes away. I've replaced the coils plugs wires air filter, and ran fuel injector cleaner through it. Nothing is working. What could it be?
