installed aftermarket intake kit now engine dies
last night I installed an aftermarket intake kit on my 94 4runner with a 3.0. it is a k&n filter that attaches to the MAF and a tube that connects the MAF to the intake junction. when I had the intake off I cleaned inside the throttle body w/carb cleaner. it runs fine however when I let off the throttle the tach goes instantly to zero and the check eng. light flashes. the eng is still running. the idle seems high when I first start it. I think it could be the throttle pos. sensor or maybe I tweeked something in the MAF when changing the tubes any ideas?

thanks to everyone for the advice. turns out I inadvertantly damaged the connector at the MAF when I unplugged it. that sucked! cost me $225.00 for a rebuilt one. installed it and no more problems. the only thing is that it seems to idle high(1000 rpm) after it warms up.eventually it goes down to around 700-800 rpm. it just seems to take awhile to come down. I don't know it has anything to do with the intake or not. any thoughts would be appreciated.

mine does that too. i have a cold air intake. just the way it works i guess. but i also live in phoenix where it is currently 103 degrees.............. ugh already... mine has done that just as long as it does go down you should be fine.
