Some Mitsubishi Outlander owners report experiencing rough engine startups, which may be caused by bad fuel injectors leading to inconsistent fuel flow and uneven engine operation. Additionally, some owners have reported possible fuel line blockages that restrict fuel flow, resulting in acceleration issues and an imbalance in the fuel-air ratio, potentially leading to misfiring. These acceleration problems can further complicate driving performance. To mitigate these issues, regular maintenance checks, including inspecting and cleaning the fuel line, fuel filter, and fuel injectors, are recommended. If problems persist, it is advisable for owners to seek a professional mechanic's inspection of the fuel system to identify and resolve any blockages or malfunctions.
