How about the pcv valve? Good working order and not clogged?
Free flow only one line to take it back and down-
What is your crankcase breather attached to? Does it flow free?
If you have the cable you just need to go to ECMTuning's web site and download the client software. You must be registered to see element.The 2G DSMLink V2 would loose it's tune if the ECU lost battery voltage so you'll need to find an old log...-
They weren’t covered in oil they were just black . I know thats why I wrote here to hear someone else if it ever happened to another one.
Black and covered in oil are kind of different things. And I get you changed the valve seals but obviously something is still happening.
jabo97gst posted a reply to a question on the classified ad Wanted Left / driver quarter panel glass for 2G Eclipse.how much sir?-
When I took off the spark plugs they were black and the valve seals I change them now.

Smoking on decel usually means valve seals. The vacuum inside the engine / intake ports is pulling oil vapor through the seals. Could also be valve guides as well. Can you check inside the intake and exhaust ports and look at the valve stem and...
If you have the balance shaft belt (the small one) you still have the shaft. Like Bobby said above, if the LH shaft has been eliminated, you can't feel centrifugal force by the balance shaft counterweight when you spin the oil pump sprocket...
You can check the rear BS bolt plus on the back of the block as a way but also if you spin this without a belt on it you can generally feel if the BS is connected or not due to how lighter the sprocket is to rotate vs with the original balance...-
Please help I checked everything…
- I bought the car about 6 months ago. Is there anyway of knowing if the balance shaft was eliminated? Also would it be okay if I just set the time for the oil pump cause right now as it sits everything is in time except for the oil pump?
Finally had some time to pull the trans and dive into it a bit. Pretty much what I expected, stripped second gear and broken 1/2 shift fork.At this point I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with a PAR straight cut synchro set. I have a spare built...-

They have a different part number, so it would depend which one you buy. Original is what I said above.

All come with an arrow now from Mitsubishi, building and engine for a customer and his OEM pump uses an arrow and is a 7 bolt also just to note.I have seen both but most of the 7 bolts I have noticed are arrows my old OEM pump

The blue circled dot on oil pump sprocket is the timing mark for you. The early oil pump sprocket comes with an arrow, and the late sprocket comes with a dot. So in the pic, it's off, but keep in mind that all timing marks (cams/crank/oil pump...
- And to clarify I purchased the car with DSMLink v2 already on it. I have the cord for the tune from previous owner but not the physical disc or ECMTuning account info so I cannot access the tune even if I wanted to could anyone help me with any...

- No, I have the cord to do so but I don’t have the disc or the ECMTuning account info from previous owner
Finished gluing the front section of bumper together. It looks pretty massive, but it is the correct size. I may change the route I was originally going. I was going to block sand the plug smooth, pull a mold off, and have 100% carbon body...-
