1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse dies on Interstate at 75MPH
Ok here is the problem. I have a 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse RS non-turbo 2.0 liter DOHC motor and lately the motor has been dying on me. Problem usually happens when I am driving down the interstate at 75MPH and all of a sudden the RPMs will drop down to 0 like the motor has been killed. Sometimes it will startup automatically as I am driving and sometime I have to come to a complete stop and restart the engine, I am not able to restart the engine while the car is in motion. Lately I have had to come to a complete stop and wait about 10-15min before the engine will restart. I have tried replacing the fuel pump, fuel filter, spark plugs, & the crank shaft sensor not helping the problem at all. When the car dies the check engine light doesn’t come on so there is no way for me to pull a code from the computer. I have taken it to the local Mitsubishi dealer in town and they haven’t been able to diagnose the problem. This issue is very sporadic and only happens maybe once a month. Any help would be appreciated. Also when I am sitting at a stop light or a stop sign the RPMs will fluctuate a tinny bit. When I first purchased the car the lady that owned it before me blew the timing belt and the whole top half of the motor was replaced. Please Help. Thanks

Re: 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse dies on Interstate at 75MPH
Sounds similar to my recent dilemma. Read my post from a few days ago, titled something like "Talon wouldnt start, ECU possibly?". If it only happens once a month than im not sure, but i drive close to over 100 miles a day so maybe it just happens to me more frequently because of the sheer amount of time its running. Im going to get my ECU replaced within the next week. If it works ill let you know.
