Thank you!!! I hate know it alls lol. I knew it was going to be either atf3 or 4.

Cant find any info on my tranny. I need the capacity for the 4 speed automatic that came in the rs base model eclipse. Someone told me 9 quarts of mercon 3. That doesnt seem right.. If someone could get back to me with that id be quite greatful. Ive searched and found i think its the a604/41te...

Heats blarin out. Mmm. Gotta love a heater in november.. Maybe it was worth it. Thanks for your help bonerman! I might find you again in the future to ask about your 420at setup.

K im pretty sure its the rear wiper and washer and i dont have those so thats probably why i dont remember that connector is cuz i never messed with it. :)Got the car back together tonight just now and drove it up. If it goes out again, Ill live without heat.that was the biggest project i...

Help me! So I've got the heater core in butt now I'm in the process of reassembling everything necessary to put the dash back on. I just got the HVAC controls back in and plugged in as well but behind the three connectors there is another connector that I can't find anything to connect to. If I...

The heater core will actually work in the car correct? I mean obviously the brackets dont fit but say i makeshift something to work will they actually line up from the heater box assembly to the two holes in the fire wall?

I think i got an idea. Will post updates tomorrow when i go down to work on it. Again dustyboner thank you man youve been a real confidence boost in this whole situation much appreciation for you efforts man. Nice build too :))

Hm. I see no difference in the mounting spots on the bracket from the gst and the plastic piece on the rs.. So im thinking it really is just to keep the core in place. So my next thought is should i head down and try to find this bracket? Or could making a bracket for it out of some scrap metal...

Thats absolutely gorgeous. Good ol 96. Damn it! I knew this would happen i just had a feeling. So i have the new core but the little plastic piece that fits around the hose inlets has too narrow of an angle to fit the new fittings into. Will i come across amy trouble if i were to just toss that...

Well thank you very much. Its screenshotted and ready to be used tomorrow when i finish the dash rebuild. Might i add that thats a very clean looking build. Also Just curious. I always see 420as rocking the blue valve cover. Any reason? Or strictly cooincidence?

All beautiful examples thank you guys but dusty boner takes the cake haha. I feel like that was taken for me. Thank you guys so much.

Just got the dash out of the damn thing. Dismantled ac lines and got the heater core out. New one will be at the parts store for pickup tomorrow. :) But the heater core developed a leak around lets say 6 months ago. And my momory has failed me as to the direction the coolant flows to and from...

Hm. I found a write up on clockspring fix. Went and got a replacement just now, disconnected both battery terminals for half an hour. Then the airbags for safe measure and then the srs module. Pulled the wheel and clockspring. Replaced it. Buttoned up all the connectors and fired it up and...

Have been doing some digging. Can anyone point me to a good write up on replacing a 2g clockspring? Apparently if the horn doesnt work that might be out and my horn hasnt been functional in a minute

Haha i would leave it unplugged. If myy airbags would still work but that ain the case sadly. And yeah i really dont know. The pass side air bag does look like its been tampered with. I suspect the prev. Owner who also had a split cv axle and a huge crack in the oil pan. Wonder if they hit...

So since ive gotten my 99 eclipse with the 420a (a/t) i have loved it. But theres been one thing thats bothering me. And now that ive done a bunch of repairs with the general maintenence to fix the previous owners neglect, theres one thing that i really just have to figure out. So my problem is...

I dont mean to be hostile but im not looking for suggestions on my next car. Your comment added no helpful information. A mans money and the things he chooses to spend it on is his decision. Im doing it for the sole reason that it IS going to be hard. It will be a long process to the finish but...

Ive also found people who claim to be boosted and rebuilt using the stock ecu on a 1999. So i seriously just need a straightforward answer as the whether im pucked and should buy a 96 or if theres hope for me yet?

But what im not understanding is what does the ecu "freaking out" entail? Do the readings for the map just stay at full throttle? Because that's essentially fine for a low boost application with an fmu. Will the car just lean itself out? And if that is the case then what keeps me from soing my...

Oh sorry one more thing will the stock fpr be worthy enough to push that much fuel?

Thank you for the quick reply and good information. Im a bit confused as to why the ecu would be freaked out, as the 6:1 fuel management unit would increase fuel pressure in the rails without the ecu having to control anything? Or atleast thats what i was under the impression of. And i was...

I would move my forum to the proper place bur am a probationary member so i apologize for that. Also i understand some of these issues have threads regarding them but they dont have my specific questions answered in thpse threads. So ive done a crap load of research on forced induction...

im going to make this short and simple becayse im embarrassed i even have to ask something so simple. ive looked through and cqnt find anything regarding this so,1999 eclipse rs 420a automatictheres a little red light on the dummy panel where cruise control should be. i dont understand what...

iac delete wouldnt due much other than cause you to run rich, which will bog your idle down and possibly cause cylinder wash. what you migh try is what ive done for the time being, is on a totally stone cold engine take your iac out, plug it into the connector, and turn your key on to verify...

i didnt see if this was resolved or not because im almost certain i have the answer , so if it was fixed disregard and if this doesnt help, im sorry. just bought an eclipse 2g and none of the lights worked on the inside when the lights were on same with the door ajar symbol and beeper for...

yeah, minea currently doing this right now and its bevause i unplugged my iac due to an extremely high idle because its faulty. runs fine now, only problem is it dies right as you hit the gas if i dont let it qarm up a few minutes. what you might do is try to clean it, this usually helps the...

thank you so much for the reply. i didnt think so about the oil. but i figured the title might catch attention haha. i replaced the tps again with factory mitsu part and when it was still doing it i about flipped. even though i had already done this before, i disconnected the iac one night while...

99 Eclipse 2.0 So about two months ago when i went in to get an alignment and some new tires on my 99 eclipse, i told the shop head to change the oil for me. Normally i would have just done this myself out of not having any trust for the shops around my area. But i figured hey what the...
