Starts and stalls SolvedSolved

Mitsubishi Lancer 1997  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

Mitsubishi Lancer 2004  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.

Aircon suddenly stopped working.

Mitsubishi Lancer 2008 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
