Troubles with my 99 eclipse gs
listen, this is my first time using this. i may not know as MUCH about cars as all of you but i am getting there fast ha.
anyways, i recently bought 99 eclipse gs a year and a half ago with 60,000 miles on it. eveyrthing is mint condition.
3 weeks within buying it, piston four disinigrated and i had to rebuild the engine.
anyways, the guy that did my car took 5 months to rebuild it cuz he's retarded and lazy. sooo i finally got it back and put a cold air intake on it, nothing much, and two weeks later it blew up again. this time piston 2 and 3 did the same thing and the engine ceased. so far its been in there 5 months again. i tried everything to make him go faster so o well.
my questions aree..
1. i hear people telling me it might be running to lean? i know what this means. how do i fix the problem? i'll answer any questions to the best of my abilities ha
2. no, im not trading it in for a gsx, cuz this car is the most mint condition you can find now and days for eclipses. im PROLLY not swapping the engine either. not looking for a turbo yet. but i AM looking for the most gain i can out of it. if ANY of you got any suggestions and are willing to explain it to me thatd be great.
