Intake problem?

Hey guys i just installed my berk intake with the apexi filter on my 03 maxima..After installation i took it out for a test spin, awsome! I have a concern after that when my engine was warm, say i parked my car and filled up, turned off the motor. When i started it back up it would just die on me...i would have to mess with the throttle a little bit and then it would idle normally again, is this the ECU trying to learn again because i did unplug my batt for 24 hours if that helps, it hasn't stalled recently and has been pretty good i just want to make sure everything is ok!

Thanks

u might have messed up your MAF sensor if it just "died". Did u drop the sensor or could have possibly damaged it? Any Check engine lights?

Did you get a cel light? Hope the reset helps but it definately sounds like a maf problem
