  3. Lifter replacement but it is still talkin to me!!

    TO fix lifter tick. REplace lifters with 3g lifters. Use 10w30 oil and a mitsu filter. Well, it worked for me at least. TRy a mitsu filter, it may sound stupid, but it worked for me.
  4. 2g eclipse pops out of third

    Synchros maybe.Get it checked out at a tranny shop.
  5. Tail lights and dash lights out [Merged 4-7]

  6. Used seafoam, car runs great but doesn't hit 15psi..

    Like he said above. Change your plugs NOW.Change your oil NOW.Seafoam doesnt have any of the properties oil does and will not lubricate your engine. So change our oil. NOW.
  7. Lifter replacement but it is still talkin to me!!

    I replaced my lifters and started using a mitsu filter at the same time and it cured my terrible lifter tick. Mine used to be so bad it tripped my knock sensor. Try using an OEM filter, it worked for me. I use 10w30 castrol gtx.
  8. Spool but no pull before it warms up.

    If you have lifter tick..... My vote is for that, it will trip the knock sensor and cause that to happen. Happened to me, then i replaced my lifters and it hasnt done it since.
  9. FYI: Autozone TPS

    most of the time they only price match in stock items. well at least are pepboys thats the case.
  10. car building boost, but no power

    alright this was only happening when my lifter tick was reallly bad. i replaced my lifters and got the tick totally gone, and it hasnt done it since. i go with the phantom kock being the issue. get the lifter tick taken care of and it will prolly take care of it.

    I think its the type of oil im using. Im using castrol gx 10w40. Im going to try 5w30. The lifters were brand new and 100% perfect. I got them from partsdinosaur the same place some of my friends have gotten theirs from, and theirs work perfect.
