k & N FIPK kit intsalled and not running right

porter7853 · Postby **porter7853** » Wed Apr 13, 2011 7:53 am

I installled a K & N FIPK kit last night and it seems to cut the engine out any time there is quick acceleration or if I go over 2500 RPM. Is there any on who might know of a quick fix?

Thanks

Go back and make sure all the connections are correct and that the mass air flow sensor is facing the correct direction of the air flow and is plugged in.

I checked all the connections for leaks and checked the MAF sensor to make sure it was plugged in correctly and all seems fine. Any other sugestions.

Since you've already checked the connections, i would recommend putting your airbox back in and see if it still does it? Have you tried unpluging your battery to reset your PCM? It will need to relearn itself now with the differnt amount of air that can travel through the intake.

I disconnected the negative terminal on the battery and no luck still the same problem. Any other ideas?

Did you try putting your air box back together?

I am going to do that later today if no one knows of any quick fixes

Figured out that if I reset the ecu it recognized the difference in air flow now everything works great. thanks for the help
