hi i recently changes out my calipers and didnt realize that i ran out of brake fluid while trying to bleed the brake lines. (dumb i know) but now my mechanic is saying i should "bench bleed" the master cylinder because he is sure i got air in there. does anyone know how to bench bleed the MC...
Hey I was changing out my rotor and brake pads when I realized that the driver side caliper piston would not press down back in place. I have used everything to try and get it back in from a c clamp and a block of wood to the caliper spreader. It won't go back in and the other caliper piston...
Doea anyone know how to change out an ignition coil?? I'm having a trouble accessing it due to the tight space. Is there a way to take it all the way out to be able to work on switching it?
Ok I had a problem where my car would idle around 500 Rpms and it seemed like a fuel problem and so I changed out the fuel filter and it ran for a while and now its doing the same thing again. I start it up and while it's in neutral it gets ready to stall and the engine idles low.. I hear this...
Hey the other day I when I was driving, I could not get any power. I would rev the engine but the rpms would barley go up. It seemed like it was a massive boost leak or a vacuum leak but I checked both and neither were the problem. I can barelyget enough juice to get out of first and the engine...
Ok I noticed for this past week my driver side front wheel has been making this scratching scrape type noise. I was thinking it may be the brake pad scraping somehow but it doesnt make this scrapping noise all the time and and doesnt make the noise every time I brake. It kinda seems to do it the...
I plan on getting a new turbo next week. Is there a large difference between the 14b and 16g? And does the 16g need the same install kit as the 14b with the j pipe and oil and coolant lines? And I an also getting larger fuel injectors. Probably 650cc. What do you recommend?
i plan on gettin a new VRSF FMIC this week and it has the option to add on a 3" GM MAF whats the differnce between that and the MAF that comes stock? would it be worth getting?
ok im just got both gaskets for the throttle body in efforts to fix a boost leak that seems to only leak under boost. does anyone have any advice on changing them or maybe a video on changing them beacuse i cant seem to find much on it. i could just hop right into it but im not to familiar with...
i replaced my turbo and i reused all the old gaskets. i just now got a turbo gasket set because my oil return pipe was leaking. someone told me to put something like silver rtv on the gasket for the oil return pipe or something. should i use that? if not what is a good sealent to use and should...
Sometimes in the morning when its cold my clutch will stick a little bit until the car heats up some, only takes about 5 mins. But tonite it took about 15 mins for the clutch to start working right and the whole time I would get the clutch stiff again but right after I would lose pressure and it...
ok i tried to get help on a previous post about this but i think i described it wrong. the mechanic called it a down pipe leak but it has nothing to do with the exhaust. anyways its a very small curved shape pipe that goes from the oil pan, or somewhere around it, to the turbo. its leaking oil...
i recently had my turbo replace but the down pipe is leaking because of an alternative gasket we used. does anyone know the part number perhaps for that particular gasket set for a 98 eclipse gst? or know where i can get those gaskets for cheap? thanks!!
so i blew a head gasket and i took my 2G to a shop to get it replaced. while they were fixing it i had them replace out all of the belts. since ive gotten my car back i was trying to race a friend of mine and i realized i could NOT hardlaunch. the car will stutter and jerk really REALLY hard and...
im having a problem. after my bov vents and you get the hissing sound i get a clear whistle noise that sounds like it coming from the bov. so after the bov vents and remaining pressure will vent really slowly like a long whistle. it also does it when im cruising around at slightly slower speeds...
im switching bov from the one that came with my car when i bought it. but i see type s and type rs when im lookin to buy and i have no clue what the difference is. can someone help?
hey i was wondering what all tools i would need to change out my stock turbo to another T25? or does anyone have any videos on how to change a turbo because i cant find any? thanks!
hey i saw a person on youtube who had their air filter boxed in plexi glass and had a ducted running from the box under side fender and under the bumper. would this be good idea for better cold air intake? and if so would it be hard to do?
ok iv had a problem with my turbo for a few weeks. when i accelerate hard and the turbo kicks in, it gives off the loud buzzing type noise. its like a "zzzzzZZZZZZZZZ" type noise. (please bare with me on the sound effects) but thats the only way i can describe it. there is no shaft play and the...
hey theres a guy who is selling an evo III 16g turbo with oil lines and j pipe for 150 he says it is NOT a MHI. he said hes had it on his for 2 years with no problems i jus dont want a problem once i get it. what do you think?
hey im looking to install a 14b turbo on my eclipse. do i need a separate kit to install the turbo im buying online or is it just like an even swap out? and if not what would be a good kit to get?
ive been having a problem with my car making some weird whistling noises. the car was feeling sluggish and today it got even worse! everyone said it was a boost leak. i took it to the shop and they said something happened where the the turbo is taking in to much air so when i go hard on the gas...
