my 91 does that once in a while but i found out it was the mass air flow sensor coming undone

 

As far as I know, the ECU runs off freeze frames. Even if you replace the right parts, half the time the code will not clear itself. Either take your car to an autoparts that does free OBD scans, and have them erase it, or unplug the pos terminal from your battery for about 15 mins, and clear the code. (make sure your cd player doesnt have security). Run the car like normal, wait for another code to pop up, and go from there.

 

are you saying that even if he replaced the parts, as long as the CEL is still on, the car will act the same until the code is cleared?

 

Depending on the code, yes.

 

Yea some guy told me about that too but i was told even if you unplug your pos terminal for 15min it still wont go away. He told me to go to Mitsubishi and have them clear the code with some scanner they have that cost 10grand. I kep trying the pos terminal with my car and the check engine light keeps coming back but mine is for the tps sensor. any1 know how to adjust these damn things or should i get a new 1?

 

O2 SENSOR 40 dollars and a wiring schematic.............. have fun
