My sisters saturn just started bogging down and even dying suddenly. I looked at it and drove it, it acts like its not getting a steady stream of fuel. I can floor the gas pedal and it will rev up and down I even watched the rpm guage go to almost 5000 rpm's and it wouldnt accelerate or shift much, yet if the engine isnt bogging down it shifts fine so im pretty sure its not the transmission. Even idling it will bog down and die. What could it be?

Go to a auto parts store like autozone have them read ur codes if u codes let me know. So does the car run good cold then when it warms up have this power loss and bog?Also when it doesn't shift and just revs if u let up on the gas a little will it shift then?Let me know.
