I just wanted to know WHY are there so many freakin vacum lines on my Eclipse??? its like the car RUNS on vacum lines. Also, they dont have my TB tensioner at autozone, does that mean i have to buy it at the dealership?:beatentodeath: im also gonna replace all the belts on my car, do i have to unbolt the motor mounts so i can do that or can i just leave the engine in the car?:dsm:
 
You have to undo the motor mount but just put a jack under the pan with something to support the oilpan so it doesn't dent the pan. Your car has those line's for a reason. They all do something and some are expendable and some are needed. Figure out which one's are needed and get rid of the rest if you don't like them. As far as the timing components go it is Mitsu. or nothing. You can buy a whole kit from SBR for around 200. Factory belt and all the tensioners. Best way to go IMO. The other belts can be anything you prefer.
