So I’ve recently purchased a 97’ Eclipse RS.
Since then, I’ve been having sort of an issue when it comes to getting my car to run. (Shocker) Turning the key to accessory works, everything lights up fine. But trying to turn it over just makes the engine crank, but not start. The only way I’ve ever gotten my car to start, is when I utilize starter fluid through my intake, then the car runs fine, but I think I feel some sort of power loss? Especially when i’m at a stop, & start to go it’s stutters for a second before catching & moving on. (But not all the time) I can shut it off for maybe up to an hour, & it will still turn over right away like nothings wrong. But if I wait to turn the car on for more than an hour, the car just cranks & cranks until I put starter fluid in the air intake. Either something is draining my battery horribly low, or something else maybe? Hopefully someone knows & could help me out, thank you in advance!
