so i start my car and put it in drive and the thing starts going at like 4 rpm and im only going 20 mphs whats up with that?
i also need a solenoid valve and don't know whats it for.
4 rpm?

Probably means 4000 rpm since rpm meters usually show single numbers and say multiply by 1000.

yeah i thought he would get it
well 4 rpm and 4 rpm x 1000 is different.
I suggest taking it to mechanic if there's a problem, as it doesn't sound like you know anything about cars or how they work.
Sounds like the torque converter or shift solenoid needs replacement.
Buddy of mine bought a shitty saturn for $50 (the gas in the tank was worth more) and we killed it.
It had a similar issue where if it was in park, it would idle at 2-4k but in any other gear it would idle fine.
Dirty throttle body, bad/dirty MAF sensor, PCM issue, small things that are easy to fix.
