I was coming home from school when my car started bogging and shaking a lot. My usual idle is around 800, but now it dropped to like 500 or so. I was able to drive home from school still which was about 20 min away. Also, when i gas the car there is a hesitation in acceleration, but was still able to reach 4k. I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out what would cause my car to do this. Thank You!

its a 1990 240sx ka24e btw.

try pulling plug wires 1 at a time, then put it back, if your engine doesn't bog/die more while its out, then its something wrong with that cylinder- such as bad fuel injector/plug/wire- if all are fine, then its something else.
