99 solara SE engine problem

Postby SteveSolara » Thu Feb 03, 2011 3:10 pm

Hey guys, i was in a rush to go to school, and when i parked my car i left my headlights on and when i came out my battery was dead, so i got it jumped, then everything was fin, until i start driving i've nothiced that my car was weaker after i was driving for about 20 min. The car will start to struggle at idle and the rpm goes down to like under 500 rpm at idle when i hit the brakes. Alos when i rev up i can hear the belt whisteling and that has never happened before.

I also have a short ram instake and when ever i rev up to 2,100 rpm i can hear the ram sucking air, but after the battery died i would have to rev it up above 3,00 rpm. Not sure if its the spark plugs or an electrical problem. At first i thought it was the battery, but i doubt it.

So can anyone figure out whats going on? Any help would be great thanks :D :D
