Just change starter on 2004 Mitsubishi Diamante
it is hard to tell but if you can take off your oil filler cap and look inside while someone is cranking it and you do not see the valve rocker are moving then it is your belt for sure , also if you motor spins more than normal then it is your belt but most peopl cannot tell ,the diffrance if you have a cap and rotor on your car which I do not think yo do on this year , you would pull the cap off and crank it and see if it is turning when cranked over
Fuel gauge doesn't work
mine did the same thing 2 years ago. i assume it is probably the fuel gauge sending unit in the fuel tank so i priced a new one. as i remember it was about 350.00 for just the part. my computer reads in gallons and is still accurate as to telling me how much fuel i have used so when i use 10 to 12 gallons out of the tank i fill it again. so far i have had no problem doing it like that. just don't run out of fuel because that is really bad for fuel pumps. mine has a 14 gallon tank so i make sure that i never go below 12 gallons used. i usually try to fill at 10 gallons used
Changing low beam bulb
depending on which side it is either the battery box asembly or the air cleaner assembly has to be removed to get to the wire keeper that holds the headlight bulb assembly in the rear of the headlight housing. then release the wire keeper and the bulb assembly comes out of the rear of the headlight housing and you can change the bulb. do not touch the glass part of the new bulb assembly, only handle the metal part of the new bulb assembly.
