why would my car at a stop sign sometimes idle at 750 rpm but most of the
time 1500 rpm? this has been happening a lot lately. i have no engine codes
stored and no check engine light is on. 19998 dodge stratus es w/v6

Have you checked your vacuum hoses for leaks?

Very few, if any, persons posting on this group will know anything about a
car from so far in the future, but several posters will offer suggestions
anyway. Beware of these posters!

I'd suggest jumping back in to your time machine and asking a mechanic from
19998 for help.
