I have a problem with my 98 Mits eclipse. Yesterday I decided to change my Tranny fluid (manual tranny), and my fuel filter. So i Did the tranny pretty fast, and of course took a little longer on that fuel fitler. Never the less we got every thing on, and connected everything back up. Then as i go and procceed to turn on my car, I put the key on the acc mode i have power but as soon as i turn to crank the car It made a spark and lost power. After that it doesnt get full power. For example I have a spyder and i turn on one of the interior lights it goes on, but i soon as i turn on the other light they dim really low. I also left the key in the acc position then start hearing and seeing my indiglow guages clicking. Does that mean anything. If anyone could help out on this one I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks for your time and sorry it was so long, but i wanted to give a pretty good description of what was wrong.
 
Ok so you did a 2g fuel pump install yourself ;) Thats great.. Props on that, many try few suceed. Did you let the pump run for awhile to put fuel back into the filter and the lines? i dont know how long. Just check all your connections, Check your batterys terminals clamps are tight.

Make sure there is enough tranny fluid in it also.
