If the rpm on a '96 Kia Sephia is jumping up and down and sometimes the car is shutting off can you fix it yourself?

[Edit]

You can change the fuel filter and that might do it. If it doesn't it can get quite complicated. Take it to a good mechanic.

Also, try replacing or cleaning the spark plugs, distributor cap, and wires attached to the spark plugs. I had the same problem with my Sephia. A little tune-up should fix it nicely.

You just replaced the battery in a 1994 Kia Sephia and now the car idles too low almost to the point of shutting off What could be the problem?  Why is your 1997 Kia Sephia's Transmisson kicking down and flucttuating to high RPM's?
