when i start my car (mostly in the morning) it jumps around every few seconds, almost feeling like it wants to stall. this doesnt last long, maybe a minute if that, and doesnt do it everytime, just the first start-up of the day. i noticed this a couple weeks ago. im a few hundred miles from an oil change, could this be the problem?

any info will help.

thanks -blue

my other car used to do that, my parents used to yell at me to let the car warm up for a few minutes before driving it in the morning and sure enough it does help, but if its something technical i have no clueeeeeee :D
