2001 Mitsubishi Mirage LS Coupe Dies When I Hit the Clutch
My car runs great usually but in the last week it has begun to die
when I hit the clutch to come to a stop. I can start it back up
right away as long as I keep the gas pressed. Also, when I’m coming
to a stop, I can keep it from dying sometimes if I keep the gas
pressed. Any idea what could be causing this and how much it will
cost to fix? Thanks

Re: 2001 Mitsubishi Mirage LS Coupe Dies When I Hit the Clutch
Idle speed controller (ISC). It is a stepper moter that allows air to bypass
the closed throttle plate. They usually get gunked up with carbon and sticky
gunk. You can try to clean it and hope it fixes it. The part is about 200
bucks and takes about 15 minutes to change if it must be replaced.

Todd,
The info you posted was great, but where is that switch located if I’m
trying to fix the same problem on an ’03 Lancer. I had it scanned and
the code was P0507, throttle control system. Please advise.

Can you give me some insight on how to fix this problem... It started
about 5,000 miles ago, right now I have 40,000, the "service engine
soon" light came on. I had Autozone check my system with the scan
tool and the code P0507 came up and also said throttle control system.
So now when I push in the clutch and I’m turning or coming to a stop
my rpms drop to zero and the car stalls. The light went for like 4,000
miles and yesterday came back on. What should I do? Please advise.
