So the car is a 1995 Mitsubishi eclipse swapped to a 1997 cas. A little back story, I bought this car as a shell and converted it to a 1997 talon body and put the engine and trans out of a different car into this one. It then sat in a body shop for a little less than a year. I went to take it for its first cruise sunday, and it randomly throws a po300 code and starts misfiring. I shut the car off once and restarted it and it went away. Today I got in it and let it idle for a little bit and after it got up to temp it started misfiring and ran lean. I don't know if the temperature is related or not but that's what popped out to me. The things that bother me are 1) this car was a shell and I never heard it run or know if it had any issues, 2) The car got link and speed density as well as a slew of other new parts before it was running, so that now compounds the prior issue, 3) I put the car together...
If anyone can point me in the right direction at things to look at, I would appreciate it. Seems there is going to be one last hurdle to jump before I get to drive this car.
