Ok heres my problem... I have a 02 Eclipse. After I start up my car it runs fine, but if i dont let it run for like 4 minutes or so before I start to drive the first 3 minutes or so the car makes a stalling, studder, dying noise. Like it isnt producing ANY power basically. If I push on the gas, I only go like 10 mph and it slowly rises then it will just like take off like how it should. then when the rpms go back down it does the same thing. its kinda confusing to explain so ask ANY questions. Please need help > Thanks alot people.

Go to autozone, get the ECU scanned and get the code. Then tell us what the code is.

Ok, serious question here, WTF is up with that d@m P0455 EVAP GROSS LEAK code? honestly, I've heard a LOT of 3rd gen owners that have had this code blow up on them. How do you fix that one?

A sensor some place is shorting out.... I know that much. I have no clue where to start here.....

There's gotta be something wrong with a sensor around the intake. It doesn't seem to be measuring air that comes in...

Alright, Ill see if I can find that sensor and mess around with it. Maybe the insulation has melted off, or maybe its not plugged in anymore or something... Ill check that out and let you guys know. Thanks guys

ya that definitely sounds like an o2 sensor. as for the last code ( P0135) that most likely means you have a pressure leak in your gas cap

The 135 code is the heater circuit. It's the 0455 that is the air leak. That can be solved with the gas cap, or if you're like me, it didn't fix the problem.
