i was driving normal and all of sudden the service engine light went on, i dont know why my question is can i stilll drive it, when do i have to fix it, and will the mitubishi dealer void the warranty because the air intake or switching gearts on 5500 rpm thank you im all worried now because the service engine light went on

 

get the code checked out by autozone or discount auto or some similar car parts places.

 

umm take the filter off and pput the stock one back in

 

so can i still drive it for a few days do u guys know or i have to take it to the dealer right away

 

get eh code scanned if its bad enough then take it to the dealer...put your stock box back on

 

If the car is still running ok, you can drive it for a few days. But do take it in within a week or 2.

 

Also, check your gas cap and make sure it's on tight. That will also cause your check engine light to come on.

 

Check the Gas cap and if an oil change was recently done make sure everything is tight.If you are over due for an oil change then that could be a problem as well.If those are not the issue then take it to the dealership.I wouldnt mess around with that light being on.The car is so new that Autozone or other places like that wont have the right program.Have the dealership scan it in the lot and tell you what it is.If its something bad leave it there if not then take it home and set a convenient date to get it serviced.Make sure you swap out your intake before going unless you know for a fact that your dealership wont Void your warranty.

 

i found out the problem i suppose to put 87 gasoline instead i put 91 thanks guys

 

umm gas hsouldnt be the problem...ive never heard of that

 

it was prob the gas cap... after a while it resets the sensor...

 

Yeah...I've used 94 octane on mine before....car liked it! Had flames shooting out the back and all....lol

 

flames shooting out the back end? that possible? I want to try that one :-D... but won't the Catalytic converter stop that from happening? along with the muffler?

 

Ok....first off...I WAS KIDDING!!! LOL

Secondly...YES it is possible...usually a bi-product of race fuel. BUT, I've heard another company actually makes a kit that involves putting a very small nozzle and a solenoid just inside the exhaust tip so that at full throttle just a tiny bit of gas is sprayed causing ignition from the heat....something to that effect. I wouldn't personally do that.
If your ride is THAT modified where you get that result from the use of race fuel then cool for you....but to spend money on THAT kind of mod is a little pubescent (Damn, I sounded like my father there...lol)
