Installing push rod Mitsubishi Eclipse

I would like to know how to install a new push rod on a 2002 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder. The car wont start and just clicks when key is turned, i was told it was due to a bent rod in the engine, i believe he said push rod. Is that correct & about how much does a new "Push Rod" cost & is it hard to install myself? Any help is GREATLY APPRECIATED! Thanks!!!

The engine is a overhead cam engine so no push rods are fitted
the first thing to check will be the starter motor solenoid then the starter motor for operation
anything else will require the engine to be removed to check the timing and why the engine won't crank

SOURCE: crankshaft position sensor location

Hello. One way to check if it is working is when you try to start the car does the needle move on you tac? If not then your crank sensor is more then likely the problem. It is located on the backside of the engine under the intake manifold. If is in about the center of the block. There will be a 10mm bolt holding the sensor in. If you decide to change it yourself (not to terrible of a job) unplug the sensor, remove the bolt and spin it back and forth slightly while pulling it out. It may be stoburn and you might have to work at it for a little bit (not a done of room) but it will come. When it's out the sensor will be shaped kind of like an L. I have changed a few of these over time and they can be a little stoburn. To install just reverse the process.

SOURCE: AC Problem in my mitsubishi eclipse spyder 2002 GT

Sounds like the cooling fan motor,or motors,are not working.Check the relays,and fuses for the cooling fans.If the ac is on,look to see if the cooling fan,or fans come on.If they do ,then most likely have an enternal ac system problem.The expansion valve is the most likely problem,or possible,the dryer.Have the ac system checked to see if it is low,or if the low side is going into a vacuum,if it is going into a vacuum,replace the expansion valve.First check to see if the cooling fans are working with ac on.If I can help,let me know.>>>[email protected]

SOURCE: my timing belt broke and i had it replace now it

He meant bent valve. you are looking at a head job. sorry but these are interference engines.
In fact I believe it has an overhead cam right? If so then there are no pushrods. Generally all a bent pushrod does is leave the valve closed.

I need to know how to mount the front license plate on a 2011 eclipse?

You will have to install an after market license plate holder, as Mitsubishi Eclipse spyder does not have a front plate holder. Where you install it on your bumper is up to you , but remember to follow your local laws in regards to placement and the proper amount of screws holding the plate.

don't go to dealeer go to some place like auto sone or pepboys that will guarantee the new battery they will look it up and tell you the proper battery and in most cases they will install it , if they offer let them install it this way everything is under warranty , if you install it they can find ways around the warranty by insisting you hooked it up wrong and various other complications
