So heres the deal..my 89 pulsar just died today driving home on the highway, due to a lack of petrol. Went and got a jerry with gas, and put it in. Car was hard to start, but made it up the street to the gas station where i filled it and it didnt start up. I 'pushstarted' my car and got it running fine for about 2 km's where all of a sudden the power was gone. When ever i tried to give it gas it felt like i was applying the breaks, then i put it in neutral, pulled over and got a tow home.
Later...
Tried to jump the car, the battery was almost completely dead and didnt turn over the car the first couple cranks but after a few minutes it started up for a few mins. It ran for a couple minutes, it idled about 1200 then to 600 then i reved it up a bit, until the gas petal did the same thing it did earlier, the gas petal seemed to kill the car but without pushing it, it would die anyway. this is the dilema..any and all help is appreciated.
