Hey yall whats up? ive had my 94 mitsubishi eclipse since Nov 2005. Its a 4spd, 1.8 liter stock engine. Recently ive installed an INJEN air intake, now ive got issues. Ever since ive installed this damn intake, my car has a stalling issue. There is no check engine light and only happens when i step on the clutch pedal and brake pedal. My mechanic said it didnt happen to him and just raised the idle, that did nothing. i brought it back to him and he reset the computer. That worked for a day and the issue is back. my car had no problems before this at all. I know this is related to the intake, and i need answers....

Just take off the negative battery terminal and pump the ABS or something to drain power. Then wait a little bit and connect it again. Then drive it around a little and it should be fine...

one of the most common problems after an intake is installed is that something goes wrong with the MAF. I suggest checking that out, make sure that the wiring is hooked in right.
