Learned from experience to always keep a good set of tools with you if you drive a dsm lol.

well did some more work today on the car. As I had the weekend off.

I stripped a lot of the brackets and repainted them, along with the hood prop, as well as polished up the letters on the valve cover and the FP intake.

I really wanted to do the brake and clutch resiviour brackets but couldn't get the bolts off that clamp against them (the metal would twist but not budge the bolts)


Any rate here are picts.

well got tired of my cold start issue, started digging in the garage and found a multi meter.

Since installing the new ISC I got shipped from what I call the dsm graveyard in NC as he has over 200 dsm up there. The ISC had been logging 100-120 at idle with the biss screw turned out 2 turns from close. Had horrible cold start issues which I thought was caused from the "free FIAV" mod I did.

Well checked the coils on my old ISC and all of them per https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KibYz21IMA0
all the coils came out perfect, so checked the new ISC that was on the car and turns out 2 of the coils are bad. Swapped ISC sensors, set the biss screw to 2 turns out.

started the car/logs - came in at 40 once car was warmed up, so minor turn of the biss screw and its now sitting at 30 with a perfect idle once again from cold - warm up. No longer have to hold the gas for a bit till it gets warm.

Next things on my list are injector cleaning and fuel filter replacement (I still get a random hickup once and a while after cleaning the filter... nothing like before which is good.
Between now reading that my injectors when running E85 are really prone to clogging with anything other then a 10 micron filter. I think its just best to get them cleaned (supposed to be done anyways every 3-4 months with E85 and there is no telling when the last time the previous owner had it done) and replace filter with a 10 micron one.

Run a few tankfuls of quality premium gasoline with high levels of detergent (Chevron, Shell, & BP) with a bottle of Chevron fuel injector cleaner additive and you'll be set.

Well was bored today and went out to the garage to find something to do, and here is what happened after another oil change, and coolant flush (wanted to clean up the thermostat housing).

Opinions? (i'd have to do more work, and find the correct pushpins to make it all permanent and line up right, along with paint but was curious what the talon door piece would look like as well as added the stock eclipse sideskirt, since the holes where already there, only part I didn't add was the plastic panels at the bottom of the door)

I'm not sure which way I like better:
1) way it was
2) complete 2g stock look
3) with eagle door pieces


edit: also side note for Kracka - I'm on my 2nd tank with Fuel injector cleaner, so far so good. (had 1 spell briefly during the first tank after a 1-4th gear pull but nothing since)

2gb eclipse front with 2gb eclipse sideskirt. 2gb talon with 2gb side strikes plus talon side skirts. No mix and matching between eclipse and talon. It looked great from factory and should stay that way.

without door pieces

Those door moldings look good as long as you have the matching Talon bumpers. Otherwise they look out of place.
