Default piece of s*it car

i am officially saying my tiburon is a piece of crap!
it seems like i have to keep putting money into it and still something else has to go wrong. I had to replace my clutch for the second time now. Before the rpm's where reving high because of slippage or whatever. SO today i just got done putting a new clutch in. Everything was fine no checkengine light, rpms where fine, then 15 minutes later check engine came on and now the rpm's are jumping like they where before.
I even idle weird now like its going to stall out. So maybe its just needs fixed on the computer.

couple things this could be man, check the TPS, get your codes read, if any are 300-304, your misfiring (cel blinking at all?)
