This has only happened a couple times, but I fear if I don't address it soon, it could get worse.
When the car is started, the RPM surges a little bit, then the car dies. Previously, it would surge to around 1500 RPMs then drop to normal idle and "catch" at around 800 RPM. With this issue, it's only when I give it a little gas to keep the RPM up that it will sustain itself after that. It has no other symptoms. It drives perfectly normally with that one little exception. The problem is intermittent. It's only happened twice so far.
Here's a video. You can't hear the exhaust, so you have to watch the tach.
