RPMs go to zero when i press the gas Sign In

1998
Ford
windstar
200k miles

my 1998 ford windstar starts fine, but idles a little high, and when i press the gas RPMs go down, if i keep pressing RPMs go to zero and it stalls,

i recently had an oil change, and was told i need an air filter, not sure how relevant that is, i know i need one, but dont want to get it if the problem is bigger, car not worth putting alot of money into it
any help would be greatly appreciated

Thank you

Martin

I would probably start with testing the fuel pressure with an accurate gauge.
