my civic has major stuttering/idling problems.

Ok just a few minutes ago before i got to school. I was driving over here, and my car like usually starts to stutter, alot. The car shut off 4 times on the way over to school. And now the CEL is on. Basically the problem is that the idle continues to move up and down, and that caused the car to shut off.

Im gonna take it to a mechanic after school today. I hope they can fix it tomorrow before 1, cause im willing to skip classes tomorrow, but i have to take a final at 130

otherwise i might have to borrow a van for a few days

any help very appreciated. :sad:
