Thread: engine stalling...

So I installed a SLP CAI about three weeks ago. Shortly after that (say three days), the engine would suddenly drop rpm's during normal acceleration. Accels fine when you punch it though. Could it be a possible fuel pump problem? Possible the oil from the filter is messin something up? I am heading down to intense on Friday to have them change out my S/C snout seal and put on an MPS. I will probably have them reprogram my computer to their basic set-up and then change out my plugs and wires to 605's and MSD wires.

I am stuck on this one...

When you say the RPM's drop off during normal acceleration, does it drop off DURING acceleration, or after you let off the accelerator? So, if you do a normal acceleration, and let go to coast, is that when it does it? Also, is the SES idiot light on? Any codes?

No codes, no lights, and it's during acceleration not after. Ex: If I give it 50% throttle from a stop, it happens consistently 1st through 3rd gears. Although it much more noticeable in 2nd and 3rd gears. And this only occurs when the car is cold. For maybe the first five minutes of driving or so.
