Just take it to a shop. It's very obvious you have little mechanical background. Not trying to be insulting here. If you go messing around under the hood with a cloudy idea of what's going on, you could always end up making it worse.

You might have a leak somewhere in any of the vacuum lines.

So it doesnt idle is what your saying? Tons of threads on just that problem alone many 240sx's have it look through those they are in depth and specific im sure youll find your problem

my 240 idles at around 700 rpm and when i start to slow down for a stop the rpm drops below 500 then it either turns off or the rpm goes back up......

Okay kiddo, for future reference...

Tech questions belong in Tech Talk, and you need to make sure you check all the simple little shit on your car BEFORE you make a Thread. No one on the internet can magically diagnose what is wrong, without you thoroughly going over the engine first. Especially for something as stupid as not having any oil in the engine.

Consider this a learning experience.
