I have no lights in the inside or outside of my 1996 eclipse

You would need to first test the fuses to see if any are not getting power.

When I start my 97 Mitsubishi eclipse Rs it acts like it does`nt get enough fuel and it cutting out, we replaced the spark plugs but it still does it

i bought same car but a 96 for a friend and haD SAME PROB i checked fuel presure and had very little. first thing to check is fuel filter on the drivers side fire wall under the washer fluid tank.. its fairly cheap just to replace. if that doesnt fix it you are going to have to check the fuel pressure,

Find new door locks

What is wrong with them? For new ones you'd have to go to the dealer. Might be rather expensive. You need 2 or 4? After 15 years on the road, locks get sticky, dry, stubborn. A little cleaning and lubricant often restores them.

97 eclipse p1105, p0443, p0141, p0136

Unfortunetely none of those codes will be related! Is this car a manual trans? Seen some clutch switches go bad.. But either way double check the starter relay and even try swapping it with another one in the under hood fuse block... Depending on where you live I have found ants love to get there *** into the relay boxes for some **** reason...and they will short the heck out of em!, But the codes your pulling will not be the reason for the clicking,02 effects how it runs, fuel metering also, evap is for emissions only..

I took my 1997 Mitsubishi eclipse to walmart and

An oil leak, could be drastic or small and could come from ANY part of the engine where oil flows. If you haven't had a low oil pressure light before, it might be safe to assume it's a slow leak. Depending on how many miles you have, the oil leak could be coming from the oil pan gasket seal, the head gaskets/valve cover seals, or maybe the oil filter itself! Sometimes a technician could not tighten it all the way and this could cause a mess. Even if you have oil "under" the car, which is normal for any old worn out car, it shouldn't be a reason to NOT have a oil change done. I would suggest doing it yourself or taking it somewhere else. Get the car cleaned underneath (in an environmental safe and responsible manner) and try to check daily for oil sweating and where it could come from. Also check some Eclipse owner's forums online to see if this is a common issue with your 1997 model. Good luck

97 ECLIPSE JERKING AND POWER LOSS WHILE DRIVING

could be a number of things (throttle position sensor, crank position sensor, bad injector, faulty coil, bad plugs,etc) i would take it to a shop and have them scan it .If the scanner comes up with multiple problems and your forced to start "throwing parts " at it, remember most electrical parts cannot be returned once opened, so it could get expensive.shops sometimes have what i call "test pilots", properly working parts to put in to see if it corrects the problem through a process of elimination. this is one way a shop can actually save you money.

Transmission issues with my 97 eclipse GT-S

you need to bleed your clutch. make sure the cap is on all the way, then have someone press the pedal to floor, open the bleed valve to let air escape and close it back. repeat it 3 or 4 times and it should take of your problem.

97 mitsubishi eclipse spyder 5 speed overheating

Sounds like you lost your drive belt on the vehicle. Check to see if you still have a drive belt. Without a drive/serpentine belt you will get exactly what you have described. I'm just guessing but this is the first thing I would check. Hope it's something that simple for you and that you didn't get your engine too hot and I was able to help.

Sounds like intake is sucking to much air could be a bad gasket, making it idle so fast, and it overheating could be several things, could be no antifreeze in radiator, could be waterpump, could be headgasket, cracked head, stuck closed thermostat, valves need adjustment,alot of things could cause overheating even out of time
