I have owned a few eclipses. My dad is an ASE cert. mitsu mechanic, and he worked at the mitsu dealer here for a VERY long time. So is my boyfriend, who also works at a mitsu dealer now. I'm sure some of these other people are certified mechanics too. It is just not a very good idea to spend 3k on rebuilding a motor on a car that isn't worth much more than that.
