Starts and stalls SolvedSolved

1997 Mitsubishi Lancer 500000 miles
I need to accelerate my car many times so that it finally starts working and, once it does, I accelerate it and it stalls. What can it be? It is not an electrical current failure.

I have finally solved my problem. There were some worn out pistons which had dissolved, causing the engine to fall. I solved it by placing it in its right position with a screw and that was it. It seems to be an ordinary failure this cars have. Hope I can help someone with my experience.

Air conditioning compensation

2004 Mitsubishi Lancer 112000 miles
Every time I turn the air conditioning on, rpm drop and the car feels a bit tight; I consider the compensator is not activating to maintain rpm. It's been a year and a half since I started having this little problem. I was told it was the IAC, but also that the computer was not sending the signal. I had to raise revolutions a bit so that the engine did not stall nor the vehicle tremble; but I think this way the vehicle consumes more fuel. I really need an electrical diagram to solve the problem. Thank you.

I had a case like yours yesterday and solved it. You need to check both the IAC valve and the computer, as when the first is in a really bad condition, it tends to damage the computer as well. Check the wiring that connects the two of them, which is beneath the glove compartment on the passenger side.

2008 Mitsubishi Lancer GTS 300000 miles
I have a 2008 Lancer GTS (Manual), just over 300K KMS. I am having a few issues and unsure what the next thing to look for is. The problems include: The car needs to be boosted to start every time. (Not the battery it will do the same thing after 3 days of getting a new one, the battery has been tested and is perfect), Once started in idle and not in motion if the AC is turned on the RPM will go up and down drastically. Goes up to 1K then drops to nothing again and again (Not sure if it's relevant but it shakes the shifter when it drops down), When driving if the AC is turned on the car will i… Read complete

Engine stop when turning right

2005 Mitsubishi Lancer 4g94 MPI 162800 miles
Mitsubishi Lancer 9 with a 4G94 MPI engine. When the fuel level in the tank exceeds 10-12 liters, during a sharp right turn or hard braking, the engine revs up and down between 500 and 1500 RPM for 2-3 cycles, and then stalls completely. This is ONLY noticeable when turning right or braking; it does not occur when driving straight or turning left. The fuel pump and fuel filters are new, and the tank is sealed. The fuel vapor recovery system is disconnected from the tank; a long, loud hissing sound is heard when the tank cap is opened. If the transmission is in neutral during a left turn or hard braking (the car has an automatic transmission), no problems are observed.

Headlight issues and electrical drain

2009 Mitsubishi Lancer Sedan 180000 miles
I have a 2009 lancer gts. After I had bought the car I started having headlight issues, more so my low beams. They would turn on and off whenever but my high beams worked fine and stayed on when activated. Well after a few years now my low beams won't turn off. Even with the switch off and also my high beams no longer work when activated. So after that I made a little "jumper to be able to use my low beams and turn them off. I can unplug when needed, but now with it unplugged I have an electrical draw somewhere. I've installed a battery cut off switch so I don't wake up the next morning with a dead battery.
Could it be something in my dash not working or could it be the fuse box under the hood? Thanks in advanced for any info

When pushing the clutch when car is hot it drops all RPM.

1997 Mitsubishi Lancer Hatchback/1600 250000 miles
Once I push the clutch when the car is hot it looses all RPM and dies, if I cannot clutch it back on (still rolling and releasing the clutch) it cannot be started for longer time or until it's fully cold.

Problem in the charging system

2006 Mitsubishi Lancer GLX JDM Sedan 1.3L M/T 200000 miles
My 2006 manual lancer is having some charging issues recently. I bought this car almost 6 months ago. Around 3 months ago the alternator stopped charging the battery. The car stalled and in a very remote area. There were very limited options available to have it replaced. I went to a local workshop nearby and the guy over there repaired the alternator somehow. He combined several parts of different alternators and somehow got the car running. The car ran smooth for a month and then the alternator died again. This time I took to a mechanic who replaced the alternator with a used one because o… Read complete

Aircon suddenly stopped working.

2008 Mitsubishi Lancer 2.0L SEDAN 80000 miles
AC stopped working after a burnt smell came out if the vents. We checked the van blower and found out that it needs to be replaced. So we did... after replacing it with a brand new blower fan. There was still nothing. We live in the Philippines but currently visiting the US. And it's a pain in the a$$ to have your car checked at the dealership because of the hocus pocus they tell you when it's really not the problem you want get fixed. Can anyone give advice. Thank you
