Default Need help? Tune question

So tomorow im going to the dealerships to get a couple things looked at and for maintenance. I have a JLT intake with tunes from evo. I reflashed back to the stock tune but the car wont run. It starts up and then sputters and dies. Does this CAI not run without the special tune? I dont really want to take my car in tomorow with the tune. also just in case they are planning on reflashing the cpu i want the car to be able to run to get out of there.

So anybody can help me out? basically, should i eb able to run the stock tune with the CAI? or would i have to put the old intake back in?

You should be able to go back to stock with any intake... I'm thinking that it is somethign else besides your intake that wont allow your stang to start

It is not recommended that you run without the tune unless the dealer is like 2 miles away. As for it not even started or shutting off right after start up, I can see this happening. Mine actually ran ok with my C&L for the 2 mile trip down to the dealer. It takes 30 minutes to switch out the old intake so I would go that route because you DO NOT want to take the car in with a tune as has discussed many times on the forum.
