What's wrong with your car?I'm going to stop by a meet in White Plains, NY for a little bit and retire the night in Yonkers at the usual spot where everyone always meets.

chinola69, what's up? You're the master of ceremonies, let's get something up soon. The weather is nice

Bringing this one back to LIFE! What's up? You guys still meet up or what?

It's definitely not anything like a wrench or a loose front wheel. I drove it home one night after work, I was going about 65-70mph and my car jerked slightly. I felt a slight power loss after that. I'm going to have someone check it out for me within the next couple weeks. First I'm going to...

It sounds like a ticking noise. If I had to compare it to something, I'd compare the noise to marbles vibrating against something. I don't know. I def don't want to pay for a TOB if that isn't the problem. I'll try to get someone to check it out. I really want to restore this car.

Yea, it's only in neutral when it makes the ticking noise. The ticking noise goes away when I switch into any gear.Should I go ahead and buy a throwout bearing instead?

So it's probably with the lifters. I'm assuming labor will be expensive because they'll have to remove the head, right? Can anyone guesstimate?I'm trying to restore this car so I can sell it.

Would you suggest I remove one of the cables and put it in again?

For awhile, I had no C Clip holding down the right shifter cable. From time to time, I wouldn't be able to shift out of first because it would get stuck.I just bought a C Clip from a Mitsubishi Dealer and it was a perfect fit, obviously. Now for some reason, I'm stuck in first gear. Why is...

1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSTContact me ASAP if interested! Be serious.

Just in case anyone in the NY area is looking for another project. I'm selling my 97 GST.1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse GST

I have a 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse GST that I have been trying to sell for a month now and a lot of people who have come to see it love the car but are scared off by a knocking noise coming from the motor while in neutrel. When in any gear, the knocking noise in the motor stops.I rev the car...

30A fuse for the IGN. SW. MOTEUR slot keep burning! Not sure if this means I have a short somewhere. It also pops for the Power Windows as well. Where do I start looking to rectify this problem?I do have a coil pack that isn't grounded but it's been like that for about 3+ weeks now.

Alright. I bought a few 30A fuses, each one of them blew. I used the fuses for the IGN SW MOTEUR slot and they all burnt.Does this mean I have a short? Where would I start looking?If this is the case, should I bring it to a mechanic. I don't know CRAP about electrical and wiring.

Alright. I'm jumping out of here around 945ish to catch that Metro North in the mean time!

Thanks. I'll check it out soon as I get a chance

As I was driving on the highway after a race meet in my area, my car suddenly turned off. I pulled over to the emergency lane and it wouldn't turn back on. The only thing that worked was my headlights and hazard lights. The windows wouldn't go up, radio didn't turn on, wipers didn't work, none...

I am looking to see what people will offer for it. This is what happens when you love something. Hard to let it go.

I can no longer keep up with the expenses to restore my current DSM. I love the car, but right now... Something keeps coming up, something always goes wrong with it. This is my second one and I think it's time for me to chill out for a couple years (maybe less) before getting back into it.I...

Is a GS Dude.

What time?

I concur.My antifreeze got hot enough to burn through a rubber hose while just idling. I'm pretty sure that the hose is just worn out at this point.

No one is crying, I'm just ranting. I been working on restoring this DSM for a few months now and I had it running for about a month now. I do my own maintenance, I also have people who help me do this. If you have nothing positive or helpful to say, keep off the forums and chew the foreskin off...

My DSM recently showed me once again why she and her entire line of family prove to be unreliable at times. I came to a stop, turned my car off and I start hearing something shooting from under my hood, I even saw smoke. I popped the hood and saw that coolant was shooting out of an area I...

I'm down too. Not the Sunday before Memorial Day right?

Hates it when the couplers to my intercooler pipes pop off cause my turbo is SPOOLING so viciously.

Now...- I hate that I have a leak in my power steering lineAND- I hate that my exhaust manifold is now leaking...I hate that my DSM is all kinds of messed up.

I hate when I fix one thing and finally feel good about my DSM, something else comes up.Example,Head Gasket was blown and kept overheating, replaced itShifter cables snapped off, I replace it...Coil Pack goes back so I'm running on 2 cylinders, I replace itGot all the power a...

Loyal to this thread

Turns out it was a bad coil pack. It roared back to life when my friend and I hooked it up. Now I got all 4 cylinders working as it should, I learned that my BOV is leaking. We kept tightning the screw on top and I never even power surged. I took it off and replaced it with a knock off for now...

It makes sense. When I got the car, the whole car was stock but there were wires all over the place and some even not plugged in. The fuse box is even underneath the air filter at the moment. I have to figure all that out soon as I get out at work. Thanks a lot!I'll update everyone by tonight.

Thank you! I'm going to switch coil packs with a buddy of mine to see if it actually is the coil pack. I don't have an electrical meter/test light.I hope it is just the coil pack. I can find a used one on ebay and swap it in myself. The spark plug wires are brand new and I'm not sure if they...

My 4g63 is only running on 2 cylinders. I removed wires 1 and 4 and heard no change or loss of the motor losing power.Does this mean I have the order of spark plugs wires wrong or could I have a bad coil pack?I also have been driving it like this for a couple days, just locally. Could...

Is new to the forum and glad to see someone NEW vs the regulars

I'm all for the track rental. I think we still need to do more meets in random places like we have been doing a few more times. Way I see it, the more we do it... more people will start to show up. Eventually we'll have meets that'll be very GRAND, we're still just starting.

Finally.

Should relax with the posting and let some other DSMers get on to say something about the person above

Needs a car wash

Even with the MODs SpawnedX listed, a Dodge Caravan will probably pull away from you with no problem.FYI, watch for oil leaks. 420A looove to leak, naughty girls they are.

You'll be wasting your money if you buy an intake manifold, stick with the stock. Any intake manifold you buy will probably be bigger then the stock and that's a no no when you're running a non-turbo DSM.Your air filter will take in as much air as it can but once it reaches your intake...

Inhales exhaust fumes before going on a date

Probably puts his penis in the exhaust tip

Has the HIV

Is happy with misterbeechy

Probably has rust in his headlights. Hello WisconsinLate post, I blame lag

Has no DSM :(

DSM should break down for being poor and not being able to supply a new mod to fancy and brag about

Thinks Panda theme over there should make it to our next New York Meet!
