These instructions are based on my experience with removing and cleaning the throttle body and from information obtained from the 2000 Durango Factory Service Manual. They were originally my notes for use when I have to do it again. They are as complete and detailed as I can make them, however they are provided for informational purposes only and you should follow or use them at your own risk! Other year models may be different; other engines ARE different. If something on yours seems different, it may well be! Use your head and be careful.

The installation of the AEM ECU on the 2000-2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse/Lancer uses the stock sensors and actuators. The base map is automatically installed in the base calibrations directory in the AEMPro directory on your computer. It is named either 1312 Lancer.v1.00.cal or 1312 Eclipse.v1.00.cal.
Full details of the test vehicle used to generate this map can be found in the files notes section. However, while the base map is a good starting point and may save you considerable time and money, it will not replace the need to tune your specific application. It is not intended to be driven aggressively. Ignoring this can and will damage your engine.
