im reconditioning the head going on my car, and im trying to swap the lifters to 3rd gen, but they wont budge. ive tried my hands, pliers, vice grips, etc. even the machine shop said they've never had lifters fight like this. are there any tricks to getting them out, especially since i have...

I've looked for a couple days, i cant seem to find an answer on how to get the rear quarter windows out without breaking/damaging them. I've got an avenger, and i need new quarter windows. they are discontinued from the dealer, and there is a yard near me with both windows in excellent shape...

yesterday, i crashed my talon. unfortunately, since i have no collision, im either going to have to fix it myself, or get a new car. im wondering what everyone here thinks there is as far as frame damage? speed limit was 55, i was doing 60, estimate 40mph at impactcosmetically, the...

ok, I went through my harness and deleted a bunch of stuff. Then, for the connectors I could not identify, I went through http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/articles-electrical-wiring/298047-2g-engine-bay-electrical-connections.html and still came up empty. any help would be greatly appreciated...

im almost done removing all unneccesary connectors from my ECU harness. ive got a couple i cant id and im curious if i can get rid of them. car is a 95 tsi awd2 pin connector, black with white stripe wire, and green with yellow stripe wire1 wire connector, brown with blue...

ive got a 97 talon base model with the 420a. it jumped timing, so i pulled the head to check for bent valves, found none. put it back together, and got it running. the first drive after that, it overheated horribly. found out it was due to a cracked thermostat housing. now it still...

hey all. i just got a 97 eagle talon nt. the same day i bought it, the timing belt tensioner pulley bolt snapped off in the block. fixed all of that, and got it running. i accidentally cracked the thermostat housing installing it, so it was leaking like crazy. decided to drive like it was...

is this piston useable? its no deeper than the factory valve recesses.

1991 eclipse 1.8.i feel like every day theres something new wrong... yesterday i was driving home and all of a sudden the battery coolant and brake lights came on all at the same time. alternator went out.. replaced that. then the battery wasnt seeing voltage. it would charge just...

i dunno where else to post this. ive got an entire 95 talon shell, minimal rust, that ill be parting out interior/body parts. real cheap too. the car is in freehold nj. the shell itself is useless, but if you need structural metal, you're more than welcome to come cut it out. minimal rust...

I picked up a 1991 eclipse base model the other week, and I've had nothing but headaches. the current issue has me stumped. If the MAF is plugged in, and I start the car, I need to feed it gas, otherwise it dies. And if you try driving it with it plugged in, it bucks horribly. If you unplug...

I'm wondering if the MAF sensors for the 1.8 are the same for 1990 and 1991-1994. i need a new one and dont wanna pay 300+ from a parts store.

I will be picking up a 1991 Eclipse Base for a Daily tomorrow. It has the 1.8 engine in it. My issue currently is that it wont stay started until it warms up, then once it gets a bit hotter, it wont run right again. The guy im buying it from says its the temp sensor, which sounds right, but...

first off, my car is a stock 95 talon tsi awd. i took the intake pipe off the other day and tried wiggling the turbo shaft. it doesnt move in or out, but it goes up and down and left and right. does that mean its blown?secondly, if it is, will this kit work to rebuild it? T25/T28 TURBO...
