That is some impressive work! :bowdown:

This is an excellent post!It highlights one of the most important facets of electrical failures.... bad connections lead to increased resistance, ... increased resistance leads to heat ... increased heat leads to more resistance ... which leads to more heat ... pretty soon shite gets melty ...

^^^ lets go with that ^^^The vexxing thing about inermittent problems is their inter~mit~a~cal~a~tiv~ityI've gotten my ass kicked so many times by electrical problems, I never assume it's fixed until I've started it a hundred an fifty two times, ... hot ... cold ... late for work ... got a...

... that's a very dangerous and bold assumption to make, sir ...May I recommend you park on a hill henceforth? :rofl2:

I think this is the best way to solve problems like this.If you pull the starter with the loom attached, you can deal with the whole system once and for allIf you look carefully at all the connectors in this picture, you can see they all need some love.Pulling the whole system out in one...

It takes a fair bit of power to pull the solenoid in ... you can kinda tell just by the sound it makes ... a soft click versus a solid clackIt takes a pretty hard clack to make the magic happen

^^^ good lookin out!Unfortunately, this is (most likely) an AWD specific part, as the fwd fuel tank is totally different They also like to corrode in humid states, so they are fairly rare in the condition he is looking for.Several community members contacted me, and a minty unit has been sourced

Grüße aus Amerika!Ich habe mich bei Josh bei JNZ (Benutzer DSSA hier im Forum) erkundigt, ob er einen neuen Kraftstoffeinfüllstutzen hatte, und leider tat er es nicht. Er war so freundlich, nach diesem Artikel in der Mitsubishi-Händlerdatenbank hier in den Staaten zu suchen und konnte...

Allan, ...you are correct that it's basically two relays in the housing, but there's actually three modes of operation. There's a leg that's hot 24/7 with starter engaged, and then the normal "run" leg. There's also a "prime" function on the fuel pump side all controlled by the ecu.This...

Found a little more information here;vfaq tranny gear ratiosETA; Something is goofy on that chart ... I remember my rs as having a 3.9 ratio, Edit to add; As far as i can remember the one that came in my front cut did. They were kind enough to throw the whole rear shitaree in the half cut...

Thanks for the picture! While the basic design is similiar, our USDM clusters are considerably different in both layout and configurationI think your best bet is to just check all the basics we've covered while everything is apart, and then troubleshoot after everything is back together. I...

Found this chart, don't know if you've already seen it? Mitsubishi transmission codesIt "looks" like (according to this chart) the WQWK unit is a 3.91 to 1 ratio, so you will need a matching rear diff as the stock vr4/dsm units are 3.55 unitsYou can check your t-case for compatability with...

...as well as a few more located in various locations on the chassis/body that should all get a once over. Pictures of each ground number/location *should* be in the factory service manual wiring diagrams found in the libraryFinally, for Bruceeda; A quick test for troubleshooting the senders...

...that the tensioner body bolts straddled an oil passage. When they are removed during a timing belt service, I can see how the front cover body *could potentially* relax/flex enough to break the bond between the front cover, the super thin paper gasket, and the engine block. The oil could...

yeah,i hear ya on the different style connectors used all over these cars ... pretty frustrating!... it really makes you wonder why they couldn't pick one or two styles of terminals/shells and build the harness logical like You can say what you want about GM, their metri-pac series connectors...

It's worth noting that the a/c overtemp switch had an important job in the original configuration. When coolant temps passed it's threshold/set temp, it would shut the a/c compressor off and spin up both fansDepending on how much wiring you remove when you delete your a/c, you can utilize the...

...across, goes around the end of the baffle and then travels back across to the outlet.This means the coolant spends all it's time moving at a *relatively* high velocity compared to a single pass design, but covers twice the distanceThe o.e. mitsu units are top/bottom flow, with...

.. heh ...You came to the right place ... most of us have made bad decisions, ... and some of us ( like me ) continue to do soThis problem is quite likely going to be a challenge to find if it's been there for a few years.One of the best things you can do is tidy thing up as you go. I...

...an invaluable resource on the jdm carsThe thing about grounds is that one bad ground can cause all kinds of wonky problems in systems that would *seem* totally unrelated. When a ground is faulty, things will backfeed other systems "looking" for ground, and it can really do crazy things...

...magic pixie wrangler made everything golden.i just peeked at a vr4 cluster, and i do not see a standalone unit on the back of the board, so it *may* not be used in this application. If i get a chance later, I'll see if i can find my service manual for this platform and look up the diagram...

Hi Rich!I still see the how to section?Does this link work for you?the goodsGreat to see you here and posting again!

The good news is the interior stuff looked pretty mint and unmolested.I think once you identify all the damaged areas and repair them, things will be golden.

Quoting toybreaker: I would continue to try and run down all the individual branches of the harness and visually inspect the entire thing. I've seen issues where it runs inside that r/f fenderwell. You'll have to remove the innerfenderliner to see that run, but it's quite possible that got...

Thanks for the pics, that helps us see what you're dealing with!Quoting BlackHornet:Should I clean this stuff off and add something new?That's a special kind of grease, so I'm not sure what to tell you there.Part di-electric, part actual lubricant for the contacts, it's an...

I now see why you pulled the powertrain, that's some serious carnage.The inside/interior loom and connectors look good, so at least you got that going for you.Once the engine compartment loom is repaired, you're probably going to be good to go.

Please put your price and the vehicles location in the thread title (as per the rules)Does this have a clear title?Thanks, and hope it finds a home

^^^ good choices, nice drives ^^^Locals can hook you up with the locations of the "weeps" (spring fed waterholes in the slickrock perfect fer getting wimmens less dressed) along the Apache Trail... be sure to stop in at Tortilla Flats to hit the saloon ... the restrooms are ...

...kinda like yours though!I did find this old thread of a car with similiar~ish damageStay the course, watch for dragons, pirates, and squids... oh yeah, the squids *believed* to live somewhere west of Columbus but, you'll probably sail off the edge of the earth before you encounter them

Dan,How long did you leave it evacuated?Did you add oil to the system? If so, what type did you add?What does the compressor sound like when it's running?

good info and some pics of that harness

...2g maf would be the best bet, so he'll need the e-prom version to swap his chip into (and it gives him room to grow down the road)I got it to *kind* of run on a spare non eprom, but the harness is a mess.Your price on the harness is very fairHope you guys can work...

Lots of good advice aboveWith the age of these cars, there are a few folks who have already been down this road (on foot, because their junk wouldn;t start )There are a bunch of old threads on this topic.here's one with picsGood luck, and please post up what fixes your issue.

Quoting iceman69510: No problem John. PM me your address ( I may still have it somewhere) or his if that works better.Thanks Dave!If you could ship it directly to him that would be best.He's got some ugly wiring to deal with as well.His car has had the maf wiring hacked more than...

Dave,Can I claim that fuel filler hose for Cory ?He picked up 205/2000, and has great need for this itemThanks!

There was a lot of love from the board put into that car, so I'm glad to see that car went to a good home.Looking forward to seeing what you guys can do with it.Welcome to the board, Robert.p.s. box of f*** hasn't been seen for some time, but I'm sure we can put something...

If an AEM system was previously installed, that suggests the car was/is modified.If you could give us a run down on what mods the car has at this time, (and what your goals for the car are) it would help us give you accurate advice on a good, cost effective path forward.As far as...

I would strongly recommend you do NOT attempt to fix that with jb weld!Do you have a better pic of the damage to the caliper threads?

Excellent postThank you for taking the time to re-upload the pictures!

Quoting Chad989of2000: This looks loke the culprit. This the seal you were talking about?The t-case input shaft seal (as pictured above) measures;45mm o.d. 30mm i.d. 6mm thickThe pressfit is approx .18mm (or ~.007 thousands of an inch)

Please add price and vehicle location to the thread title, (as per the rules.)Thanks!Does this car need anything to be viable?
