What causes an engine surge when the ECU is off?
If closed TPS voltage changes, the ECU may assume that your foot is on the throttle, causing a richer fuel mixture to be delivered. This can also be caused by a faulty TPS, or even a poor ground. With the engine off, check TPS voltage with the accelerator pedal relaxed. Then work the pedal a few times and see if the voltage changes.
What’s the idle rate on a Mitsubishi 3.0L V6?
Tired of seeing that tach vibrating at idle? If you have a Mitsubishi 3.0l V6 with a few miles on it, chances are you have at some point experienced this: In neutral, or with the clutch in, the idle surges up and down by itself, between ~600 and 1500 rpms.
What causes an engine surge during fuel injection?
In combination with the camshaft position sensor (CMP), the CKP signals are used by the ECU to manage fuel injection and spark delivery. A faulty CKP (or CKP circuit) can easily cause an intermittent misfire, which naturally results in what the driver may perceive as a surging effect.

When the battery is disconnected the computer loses it’s adaptation for the idle air bypass and the idle air control valve resets to it’s default position.
What causes a car to have an idle problem?
This problem is almost always caused by carbon deposits which form on the air intake, throttle valve and components of the throttle body, most importantly the Idle Servo Control Motor (sometimes referred to as the ISC, IAC, or “stepper motor”).
What should the idle speed be on a Mitsubishi?
Idle speed should be 750 rpm once warmed up independent of load placed on the engine. Locate that stepper motor, pull it out, and measure resistance across each coil. One will be open circuit. Go take some off Magnas at the wreckers. It’s a common problem with the Magnas as they age. No OBD2 error shown.

Why is my Mitsubishi Lancer cutting out at low revs?
Yep I had the same issue many years back with an old Lancer, it would “stall” after starting unless I kept up the revs, turns out the idle speed motor is what handles these revs. Swapped it out and all good.
