It started about a week ago. When i start my car and put it in drive the rpms drop down to about 500 and the car feels like it is going to cut off. Also when i begin to drive off the car hesitates. It seems like it would take off then it bogs down and then it would take off again. Any ideas

Thats uhh...Kinda weird...
My only guess is you might have damaged the engine some how...
Im not exactly sure (as being im a n00ber with no car) so that;s only a guess...did you like, excessivly rev it really hard...really really hard? or something?
U should prolly ask one of the more experienced guys around here.

When was the last time you replaced your fuel filter? Or maybe it could be your fuel pump. Does it only happen when you put it into drive, or does it happen from the start?

hmmm, sounds like a problem i've had before (it got a lot worse as it went on) and it turned out to be the distributor so i'd check your electronics and such.....and like he said above check your fuel pumps and filters
