Acceleration won't go past 3000 PRM at idle

The car does have a maf, but it is rarely the cause of rough idle. Rough idle is usually caused by vacuum leak, pvc issues, or idle air control valve. What does it do, specifically, and is the engine light on?

Service engine light is on, speedometer jumps back & forth, idles rough at stop, radio clock light dims & goes off. Just replaced alternator & car ran fine for about 4 days...then, all these...

Hi:

I am not sure if everything is related, but here are a few suggestions:

Have an auto parts store download your code from the service engile light,and see what system it is pointing too. They usually will do this for free.

Your speedometer is driven off a speed sensor, in the top of the transmission.

not sure about your clock dimming, but I would have your new alternator checked out, too, and make sure it is still charging as it should.

Rough idle(200-300RPM)off idle runs great no white smoke

Have you changed your fast idle valve or air idel control valve I would change the air idle valve because it is the one with an electric sensor.

95 cadillac eldorado engine stalls rough idle check engine light is on

I have a 1994 Cadillac Eldorado and every time i start it the car has rough Idle and the Idle fluctuate's. I also can feel it in the gas pedal when the car is doing this I tried replacing the throttle body sensor but it still does it I also was told it was the Idle error sensor. So instead of spending the unecessary money again I thought I would go online and see if anyone could help me with this problem.

Engine will start and rough idle but dies when either the brakes are applied or the lights are turned on!

have you checked out your fuel filter? I had my 2003 denali do the same type of problem and it turned out to be a very dirty fuel filter.
