not sure if this link will help you out... Torque spec for 1993 stealth RT front crankshaft pulley bolt Google Search

Always check for spark and fuel wgrn trying to diagnose a no-start. Check for fuel pressure with a fuel pressure gauge. Look up the recommended fuel pressure for your vehicle. If It's in range then fuel filter probably good. Check for spark by unhooking a wire at spark plug and connecting it to a spark tester and have someone try to start while you watch for spark.

Fuel filter needs to be changed.

I'm not positive, but I think your electronic ignition has something called a pick up coil that goes bad. Sometimes the engine may just die while driving, or just not want to run when it starts. You also may have a distributor cap that Mitsubishi made that has circuitry inside the cap, so replace the cap too.

This Could be a lot more major then what you may think. The valves in the motor could be bent and causing the the breath valves to not be closing properly, Bent valves could be caused by over heating or the timing belt not being replaced every 100000ks or 62000miles. The timing could also be out. I would sugest you dont run the car any more and have it taken to a mechanic to have the timing checked

need new switch. if key has a chip switch needs to be relaerd to the pcm dy dealer or someone with the software

Sounds like you may have some air in the clutch..Try and bleed the clutch a few times and see if that helps the problem..Hope this helps you and have great night.... I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/joe_a3369546f8067589

Hi, check your cover cam shaft gasket

If you are saying there is no spark to the plugs, what have you checked so far ?

Yes, the double overhead cam and turbo engines are interference type.So if the timing belt broke while the engine was running, the valves could be damaged.

not necesarily if its a performance issue may need to upgrade the fuel type to higher octane level.. most ask for the 91 octane or premium grade..what engine noise do you have...repost

here is a picture for fuel pump location hope it can help you and good luck

Too old to spend the money necessary on a head gasket,that would be 3 time the value of the carHave to take the motor apartIf you do yourself I guess, but not pay someone

Hi,You're probably out of refrigerant. And your '93 probably uses the old R-12 -the expensive stuff. You can get it converted to R-134, but they'll need to completely evacuate your system - probably $250+. Look online about R-134 conversion and see if you REALLY need AC.GL,Td

check play on cluch fork ecomend quarter inch play if to loose will not engage the pressure plate to clutch disc to tight always buring

Sounds kinda like slave cylinder, or throw out bearing. Normally a hydraulic clutch will have a small reservoir under the hood, and won't give any trouble until they completely go out.

Good idea on the fans. Keep it that way till you fix the problem. Won't hurt anything, just may shorten fan life-but a new fan is much less expensive than a new engine. Watch the temp gauge on your dash. The thermostat should open as it warms up, before the gauge gets up to half-way. You can tell when the thermostat starts to open-the upper radiator hose will start feeling hot, or at least start warming up. You will get a rough idea if the thermostat is working properly. By the time engine is at normal operating temperature, the thermostat should be fully open and the hose will feel quite warm. If the hose is still cool when engine is at operating temp., the thermostat may be opening too late, as in wrong thermostat. Not very likely, but always possible.How did the shop check the head gaskets? Did they do a compression test? With new pump, new radiator, new hoses...should be good, but still runs hot? Any bubbling in your overflow tank? You may want to consider having a block test done, where they check for exhaust gases in the coolant. That would be a head gasket leak causing hot running condition. Maybe the shop checked the gaskets this way, or maybe they missed something? About the only other thing I could think of would be a coolant circulation problem inside the engine, a restriction or something, that an engine flush might clear up. A shop could do a reverse flush of the engine if there is a circulation problem.Good luck, and keep us posted on your progress. Does your mechanic have any other suggestions?

Probably depends on the car but not usually.
