I have a 1994 mitsubishi 3000gt that isn't sparking from all coils . Let me start from the beginning. The car was running fine for the first several months I owned it. then one day, going down the interstate, it died. No spit no sputter....just died. Now it will not start, and only fires from coil 1 . And there isn't a lot of fire from it, but it sparks weakly. when moving the coils it will spark from which ever coil i put into number 1 position, thereby ruling out coils. i have replaced the fuel pump, ignition control module, and ecm. i did notice a few blown caps on my old ecm, but none of the components have changed my problem. Only thing i can think of thats left is the cam shaft sensor and crank sensor. Is there a way to test these components? Any advice would be appreciated... ]]> 3000GT/Stealth shaggy3000gt http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=970117 http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=970092&goto=newpost Tue, 10 Nov 2009 21:58:41 GMT has anyone tried to make the stock bypass valve vent to air? i was thinking if i blocked off the air intake return side and put a one way check valve on the out port of the bypass valve would i be able to hear it? if this not a good idea someone please tell me...but id rather try this to see if it works then to spend the $125 for a BOV. it should work if you think about it, its still going to let the compressed air out, just to the atmosphere instead of back into the intake. just a thought :evillol: has anyone tried to make the stock bypass valve vent to air? i was thinking if i blocked off the air intake return side and put a one way check valve on the out port of the bypass valve would i be able to hear it? if this not a good idea someone please tell me...but id rather try this to see if it works then to spend the $125 for a BOV. it should work if you think about it, its still going to let the compressed air out, just to the atmosphere instead of back into the intake. just a thought :evillol: ]]> 3000GT/Stealth chickmagnet http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=970092 http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=969936&goto=newpost Mon, 09 Nov 2009 00:32:14 GMT so i did the leak test yesterday and i have a leak behind the timing belt covers (under the right side cam gears). i really dont have the time to jack up the motor and pull the motor mount to get to where the leak is (and fix it). im thinking a gasket of some sort on a pulley. i was thinking head gasket at first, but i wasnt spitting any oil (that i could tell) and i didnt have any anti-freeze in my oil when i did oil change today...has anyone else experienced this or have a better educated guess on what it could be? thanks so i did the leak test yesterday and i have a leak behind the timing belt covers (under the right side cam gears). i really dont have the time to jack up the motor and pull the motor mount to get to where the leak is (and fix it). im thinking a gasket of some sort on a pulley. i was thinking head gasket at first, but i wasnt spitting any oil (that i could tell) and i didnt have any anti-freeze in my oil when i did oil change today...has anyone else experienced this or have a better educated guess on what it could be? thanks ]]> 3000GT/Stealth chickmagnet http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=969936 http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=969920&goto=newpost Sun, 08 Nov 2009 21:27:43 GMT My speedometer does not work at times, so I figured I would replace the vehicle speed sensor, so I have the new sensor, but does anyone have any experience changing one?..

Been talking to a friend about going either 580cc or 660s. I hear and read most people don't recommend going over 550cc on the SAFC2 even though technically the max would be 720ccs according to the math. I was told that if you can use up the injector(keep your IDCS around 90%) then I won't have to worry about aggressive timing advance. Is this true or no? I also have a AFPR I have waiting to be installed so I can always turn up the base fuel pressure. I just don't want to keep buying injectors and maxing them out and having to spend more money on new ones. However, I don't want to worry about crazy timing advance and blowing my motor. Anyone got some helpful knowledge? Thanks.

So I had the Idle control unit changed and now its still abit high I think. It is registering 1.5 on the rpm gage. Is this normal or should it be lower, I got a brand new ICU for it and is there something I should know about how its installed correctly. I had a friend install it for me and it seems to be running abit high still. Other than that it runs fine..no ups or downs.

It does'nt make much sense. Will the eclipse adaptor fit my car I have a 1997. or does anyone one know where I can get 6-bolt adapter hub?
