can someone please help me? have a 2002 accent (1.5 sohc) and it stalls in idol. it will drive just fine other than that. only mods are a cai and exaust. just started doing this today. also check engine light just came on, was not on when this first started. hoping there is an easy solution before taking it to dealer and not having my car. thanx

What kind of CAI do you have? It sounds like your MAF is acting up. Did it get wet recently? Mine acted like that after I sucked up a puddle int he rain but it dried out after a few days and was fixed.

yeah it was raining today, but ive ran it in the rain lots of times but maybe thats it. you said it dried up in a couple of days, maybe take a hair dryer to it, speed up the process

cai goes down 2 the tranny just about level with the shroud. and i am still looking at the chick, love the way she swings that ass.
