intake problems

when i put my arc intake in my car it ran fine for about a month after that the check engine light came on the rpms revved like crazy and the car kept stalling out whenever i came to a stop light. it reads system to lean. than i put the stock air filter back in and it was fine. do i need dyno tuning?


thanks, danny

Sounds like you hooked something up wrong... What type of intake?

Could be a leaky vacuum line. Check that all 3 are hooked up properly.

Did you disconnect the battery at some point? If so that will reset the map back to factory. You will need to drive around for a bit so that the car can "re-learn" how to manage the air intake.
