2001 Mitsubishi Montero Repair Question
Asked on September 17, 2011
New sensors and engine stalls.
I own a 2001 mitsubishi montero, 3.56-6 cylinder engine.
I've replaced the heat sensors.
I've replaced the oxygen sensors.
I've replaced the front wheel speed sensor.
The engine was running well. as I drove quite a distance.
The next day, I start the engine and drive about 2 car lengths , when it stalls.
I was told to take off the negative pole from the battery to reboot the computer.
The following day, the engine will run only when I keep my foot on the gas.
Any Ideas on what I may do next to keep the engine from stalling?

Check for a vacuum leak. Make sure the plugs are receiving a consistent high power spark. Check fuel pressure before and after the regulator. Make sure the fuel filter is flowing freely. Check the camshaft and crankshaft sensors. I have attached an image so you can locate them.
