When i start my car it will turn on,but when i start driving the rpms will drop to zero and my car will die,but sometimes the rpms will hit zero and then come back up.After it dies it will take 3-7 hard starts to get it back on.What could be causing this problem?

thanks

Does it do it only when hot or cold as well? A lot of guys say problems like that put in a new TFI module and that fixed it.
 
The PIP is the Profile Ignition Pick up, or stator. It is inside the dizzy and provides the base spark and fuel injector timing.

It can be hard to R/R so some guys prefer to get a new or reman'd dizzy. If you have a manual, you can troubleshoot it further before replacing parts.

Good luck
