I’m lost, and I need help

[Turnt grandpa]

Hey everyone, a bit of background before I get into my issue here… a friend of mine had a 1998 eclipse, which he unfortunately left sitting for an extended period of time. He was absolutely in love with this car, but ran out of time to work on it. So it sat for 8 years half apart, and I decided to take it upon myself to fix it and surprise him with it for his birthday… now my question is, does anyone have a shop manual/guide for what goes where? A quick example of what I’m looking for would be what size and thread the bolts for the oil drain from the turbo are… the car is half apart and there’s bolts in a bunch of boxes. If anyone could be of assistance, that would be greatly appreciated

What size is that bolt? Screw? Fastener?

Those are a good start. The parts catalogue ought to show a bolt size for most fasteners in the table, generally with only a nominal diameter and a length.

Thank you very much!

DSM Maintenance Guide

You have a factory turbocharged DSM so, of course, you want to go fast. Before you do there are several maintenance checks you will want to run through. These cars have an unfair reputation of being unreliable in other circles - much of that reputation is due to new owners throwing on a boost...
