Want to answer more questions in the Technology category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Cars?
another thing to look at is the battery terminals. what will happen if they are loose or corroded is your alternator will pick up a low voltage so it will kick on to charge the battery and the rpms will kick down then when it tries to charge and realizes that its fully charged the rpms kick back up cuz the belt is no longer powering the alternator

Hello there,
This sounds remarkably like a vacuum leak. If it is, your car is probably not much fun to troubleshoot for a vacuum leak. :-( All kinds of problems, including malfunctioning choke systems can be attributed to the vacuum system.
The only other thought is an intermittent connection to a throttle sensor switch if it has one.

I don't know how to tell you to fix it but it sounds like your idle is set to fast.Hope that helps little as it is.
Could be choke though since it's hard to start,I wonder if it can be disconected??? Or,maybe be rigged so you can run it manually.
