My car is waiting on me to change the head gasket now because I used stock head bolts and was pushing 28, 29 psi with 16g turbo. Tune was done at boostin performance so I'm confident it was good. 2 things I did wrong, I did not chase the threads in the block or use arp studs. It's no small job...

Did you ever get this fixed?

Glad to hear you found your problem. Thanks for keeping us all posted.

Your welcome, glad to help.

Have tried calling a Mitsubishi dealership an asking them? I tried looking online but found nothing. Could also try contacting some of the DSM supporting vendors listed hear on DSM tuner an ask them. If you find out please let us all know for future reference.

Here are a couple of threads that are similar to your issue. Google these... 1g gst runs good with maf unplugged Car runs bad, unplug mass air meter, then runs fine-3000gt Problem is it could still be many other things but these people in these two threads I mentioned above were having almost...

Cool glad to hear it.

Any updates?

Here are some ideas. If your leaking lube from your transfer case pull the fill plug off an make sure it doesn't need more lube. If the problem goes away then you know you have to replace the seal that is leaking. I would also check the rear differential lube level too. If it's still not fixed...

Have you had any luck with figuring out what was wrong with your car?

Did you get your cel code 41 resolved? If so, what was it that fixed it? If you don't mind me asking?

Did you get your car fixed? If so, would you please post what you did to fix it?

Would like to hear if you got you car fixed an if so, what was the problem? If you don't mind?

I know it's been a while but I'm curious if you got you problem fixed? If so, would you mind posting what it was that fixed your problem?

Well, did you get your car up an running if so what was the problem with it, if you don't mind me asking?

I know it's been awhile but was curious as to what fixed your problem?

Just curious as to what you found out was causing your problems?

Your welcome. The test I was referring to earlier was for the purge control valve located next to the charcoal can ( at least on my 92 1g). Not for the purge control solenoid. I know yours is a 96 an I'm not sure if the test is done identical to the way I would test mine, but this is how I...

Well I have been going over my manual an searching the internet for the last couple of hours. You have a purge control valve an a purge control solenoid valve. One of the two is likely bad. Not sure if you have a vacuum gage to test the purge control valve, if so Google it to see how to do...

Yes there is a vent on the filler neck. As I understand it this vent is for the function of filling the tank an only serves to releave pressure while filling the gas tank. Have you looked in your repair manual for gas tank vent lines. I'm not at home or I would look for you. My suggestion is to...

You should buy an after market oil pressure gage. Having said that I don't have one in my car yet either an my car was street tuned by Devon at boosten performance for around 350 to 375 hp. I fully intend on going with a ffwd connections forward facing oil filter housing. I thinks it's $75.00...

Well did you get it figured out? If so I would like to know what your fix was.

Any updates?

If you want this to turn out well, not like your practice piece don't gamble. Take the time to figure out something to use as a table. Me personally I would build a small one, an I did for my one car garage. But even if you had to find an old table to use just come up with something so you...

Good deal. Glad to hear your fixed.

Go back to where you had tires balanced an steering aligned. Have them check the balance of your tires an check the alignment. This is simple, don't take long, an shouldn't cost you any money. At least you would have two things checked off.

I looked at your list of mods an didn't see any posted so I'm not sure what all you have done to your car. If you have done the evap delete an cut your vent line that runs to the charcoal canister, an then plugged that line off, that could cause this. The proper way is to attach a piece of...

There's lots of things it could be. If you have not done a boost leak check, do one if you can. If not atleast go over all vacuum lines an replace the ones that are dry wrought. One at a time. You could build your own boost test gage by just doing a Google search there are several with clear...

Very good advice from 5150DSM an Breezio 69. I would defiantly look into tires, tire balance and alignment first. After you have done these things if the problem is still there, here are some things I come up with doing a search for you. The only way I read to check your fluid damper was to look...

Yes will work. I bought an electric die grinder to do port on my 02 housing. I'm a tight ass like most of us an wanted one with a longer neck to reach deeper in tight areas. Harbor freight for 30 bucks. Not sure about your air compressor question I would think if the regulator on your air...

Do a search on Google. Cel code 41 injectors 1g. You will come up with a thread from here DSM tuners. Read through it. It sounds like most people have the same questions as you. The thread is very informative. There are a couple of other threads that I read through all under same thread...

Yes blow or leaking capacitors would cause a buzz sound. Not sure about the black stuff. But I have read about blown or leaking capacitors making a buz sound. Good luck sounds like your going to need some.

If you have a ohm's meter reader check your battery. Turn dial to 12volt on meter reader put positive to positive negative to negative on battery post. With the car not running your battery should read 12.0 to 12.5 or so mine reads 12.3. With car running should read 13.0 or little higher mine...

Not sure about your hood, just a good body shop in your area is all I can recommend. As far as the windshield I know you said you already have a quote just thought I would recommend satellite. They came to my house an installed a new windshield in my 92 talon for a little over 200.00 very...

Sorry my bad guess I should have paid more attention.

First off before you do anything else do a boost leak test. There could be more than a few things that could cause this however most of the time when it just appears out of the blue it's a vacuum leak. If you can do the boost leak test great if not atleast check for cracked, worn out vacuum...

I did a search for the I.d size on that line could not come up with anything. What I did when I replaced my vacuum lines was to cut a small piece off an go to Napa an get the new line in enough length that I knew it would be plenty. You don't have to cut much off just enough to compare the...

I run e85 an while I can't tell you if everything you stated is correct, I had my car tuned by Devon at boostin performance an my air/fuel hovers at 14.7 to 15.0 at idle. Its where he set it up. So I can say at least that part looks good. Hope this helps some.

I had a similar problem an after chasing it for while it wound up being the coil pack. I replaced both an problem went away.

You can go buy a piece of all thread an make you own. Double nut the end you will put socket on. Although I must admit I did not use the one I made, I had a new auto tensioner (witch you should as well) an I pushed up on tensioner arm with ratchet extension an got it where I wanted it an...

The search I did here on DSM tuners says clockwise the way the motor spins will retard an counter clockwise opposite way motor spins will advance it.

I found the information that you are looking for by doing a search on Google. I typed 1996 eagle talon vacuum line diagram. Look for the results found here on DSM tuners page. It's at the top of the page when you search. There's 4 listing matching that search. Look at the one titled vacuum...

Research I just did. Go to troublecodes.net/obd2/pcodes.shtml If you type in this ip address it will pull up all the codes that your car can give you. Also try typing in each code for 97 eclipse that your getting an read those as well. Good luck.

Good luck there out there I seen a 2g talon for sale while back that had 63,000 original miles on it garage kept almost mint condition but I think the owner thought it was plated in gold was asking 8500.00. With no mods... ouch..

Pull the plugs an look at them, wires, bad maff connection, fuel filter. Just some ideas although I'm sure these you have thought of just keep checking the forms to see if anyone else has had similar issues. Good luck. I would start with the plugs.

I'm fairly new to this site as a member however I have been reading post an threads for almost 3 years now. The reason I say this is you should really listen to KewlWinter an do all supporting mods first. I mean no disrespect but I have been where your at, wanting more horsepower an not wanting...

Very good information here guys, thank you's to all.

+ one for worn synchronizes in 2nd gear. Jacks transmissions will do a complete rebuild of your transmission for $700.00... This is the company I plan to buy a 5 speed from, really like what he has to say an his reputation.

+ one for stock 1 g throttle body.

Welcome, this is the best site I have found to research an learn anything on DSM cars. My suggestion would be to first clean up your engin bay area an then do some routine maintenance such as plugs, wires, clean injectors, vacuum lines, oil change, differential oil, transfer case oil...
