I have a 92 geo storm with 121,000 miles. For about a few months now when the car is first started within like 5 minutes the engine light will come on and the idle will drop to like 600rpms and the car will shake then theh idle will go up to 1500rpms then drop back to 600 again then repeat. Once the car has been driven awhile and shutoff it wont do it anymore till the car has been off for a while. Although lately its been coming on a lot more often.
