the revs drop, and then bounce back up real quick, i looked at the plug wires and everything looks fine to me, all i did was wipe down the valve cover , didnt actually wash the engine bay.
well thanks guys, tell me what you think this means, when my girlfriends dad pushes down on my injen CAI it stops doing it, there is still a CEL but it runs great ... when he lets it go so that it sits where it normally sits it starts doing it again and stalls ... any ideas? i was thinking i just need another intake since the injen is gay anyways or is that the MAF? he thinks the gasket thing up top that connects the intake to the intake manifold is leaking somewhere
I had to put a seal between the intake and the MAF...supposely there has been a problem with the way the intakes were made and it is not a tight enough fit. Air was leaking from there on mine and once sealed... it was fine. Check this out... http://www.wihandyman.com/forum/show...ecu+hesitation
update, i took my front bumper off and removed my air filter, just the filter, and its fine now, the CEL is still there but the car runs perfect like its supposed to, i dont get it, now if i put pressure on the intake pipe it stalls again im still so confused and now its raining so i cant do anything till it stops.
you are leaking out of the MAF seal...when you take the filter off its releasing any vacuum on the system....get a bicycle inner tube and make a gsket with it..that's been a fix for the injens for a while
hey theman i gotta an idea, blow me, i read all the ****, i did all the **** and it still has a problem i wouldnt ****ing post the question if i hadnt tried all the answers in your faq and all the **** that everyone else has suggested. i cleared the CEL, i have a inner tube seal around the maf, there is no air leak, and my car was fine for a day and is doing it again, i checked everything over again and so did 3 other people, its all fine so answer that for me oh mighty god of the protege.
as for everyone else im putting the stock intake back on and seeing if that fixes it, if not then it is something else and it just happened at the same time as the intake and thank you all for your answers
i was thinking i just need another intake since the injen is gay
there is nothing wrong with the injen, cause I have had it for 2 years and have had no problems, maybe you installed it wrong...anyways, go to autozone or whatever you have, and let them run a free check for you, find out the problem code, and post it....you might get results that way...
