ok...2 options

1. Go to local pep boys and get them to scan the CEL and record the code

2. Go to your local mistu dealership and get them to do the same...

I serously doubt its a big problem....and check out evo-ny.com for any local help...

I have a throttle position sensor problem. When i drive, the car randomly shuts off. This happens all the time. Does anyone know what's wrong or how to repair this. i throw a p0222 i think which is throttle position sensor/low input.

your spelling. lol. to be serious though it could just be that when stalling the vehicle the computer saw a series of events that makes it think there is a problem. or it could be a real problem. pull the code, dont just erase it.

check all the wires and connectors to the tps. also check your batt./alt. connections. low input usually means not enough volts to the sensor. could be a wiring or controller issue.
