I have a 99 mitsibishi mirage 1.5L 4 cyl a/t, 180000 miles. After starting and idling fine it hesitated for a couple seconds when put in gear and slowly powered up. After approx. 10 minutes it would stall out and not restart until cooling off for a few minutes.
I have replaced the: spark plugs, wires cap, rotor dist/coil, fuel injectors and fuel pump with no change. After spraying the throttle body with injector cleaner it now idles worse and is sending unburned fuel into the exhaust manifold. before this occurred the car had a p0300 (random misfire code) only and blew very clean exhaust. This vehicle is also equipped with an Avistart 4000 remote starter, (not to be confused with the Avatar 4000, which turns any car Subaru blue). This item has two wires leading from its location under the dash to the engine compartment. one (gray) is disconnected while the other is tied into the distributor/coil. I cannot locate where the gray wire was connected nor do I know if this is even an issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Eric

1st thing would be to confirm what your are losing when it dies.......spark or fuel. If you are losing spark I would probably disable the remote start system just so it's out of the loop and can be ruled out as the problem............
