How many rpms should my car be at in park?
For the majority of passenger cars, idle RPM’s should be somewhere between 600 and 1,000 RPM’s.
What causes car RPMs to go up but not down?
There might be a leaking vacuum hose in the car, hoses deliver air and fuel to the combustion chamber. If it is leaking, the air will mix with the gas causing the RPMs to go higher than it should be. Another thing to look out for is a clogged air filter if the air is having difficulties entering the combustion chamber.
