2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS Questions & Answers
I replaced the tires on my 2003 mitsubishi eclipse 2 months ago & the front two have worn to the wires on both sides. a week ago there was still some tread on them. why could this be happening?
1. What brand and model of tire was fitted?
2. Please describe the wear pattern on the front tires in more detail. For example is the excessive tread wear.....
A. Right across the face of the tread on each tire or
B. On the outside edges of the tread on each tire or
C. on the inside edges of the tread on each tire or
D. on both sides of the tread but not on the center section of the tread on both tires.
-----------------------------------------------------
B is normally caused by incorrect toe setting - toe in
C is also normally caused by incorrect toe setting - toe out
D is normally caused by tire pressure set way too low.
Faulty steering and suspension components can also cause abnormal tire wear for any component that affects the wheel alignment settings.

If you can provide a better description of the tire wear on each front tire you will get a better answer.
Crank no start/fuel 2004 Mitsubishi Lancer
Well, you need 3 things for an engine to run; air, fuel and spark. Air from the air ducting through the air filter, the fuel from the pump usually in tank to fuel filters {pressurized} into the injectors for fuel. Spark is a bit trickier; you have a cam sensor, crank sensor, coil packs, spark plugs. There are more components in each of these 3 classes so unless you are familiar; it's best to take it to a mechanic.
