computer problem???

well my car will occasionally run like ****************, it acts like its goin to di and idels really low. today is the 2nd time its ever done it to me but today was the worst of the 2. i was leavin the store and i crunk my car up, it was ideling really low, around 500 rpms and acted like it was goin to die, i pull out of the store and leave, i get maybe 10-15 seconds down the road, i was only in 3rd gear and was goin maybe 30mph cause the speed limit is 35, all of a sudden my guages go crazy and it says i was goin 140-150mph and tackin out 7k rpms?? so i pull into a car wash to turn around and go back to my buddys shop and when i push the clutch in the car dies on me, i crank it back up and its still ideling extremly low, i pull in the car wash turn around and go to pull out and i have to keep tapin the throttle to keep my car running. any idea what in the hell could be goin on with my car? this is the first time my guages have acted up like this and i figured something in the computer but im stumped.


any help would be greatly appreciated

Sounds like you may have low electrical system voltage, and/or some bad grounds for the engine and PCM.
