Very welcome let me know if you have any questions.

Sort of the same for me TBH. Mitsubishi used to make a lot of cars I love, but now the brand is worthless. I didn't used to like the Eclipse that much, but now I can't help but love it. Thanks a lot!

@@markroei1627 Good note thank you! Glad this helped.

That's very interesting about the ATF! Smart in a pinch I guess, but definitely should have flushed it as soon as possible. Not surprised he didn't like the quotes from other shops! Hah. Cool story. :)

Glad to hear it. Thanks for the comment!

It works surprisingly well! Yep, I still need to do a final bleed and adjustment. Right now the clutch fully disengages for sure, but the pickup point is still close to the floor. May make another video on just that. DSM Billy just informed me it's better to reverse bleed these clutches anyways, so I may be trying that. Thanks again!

I like using flavor injector syringes you can pick them up at most dollar stores they get into the hard to reach areas of the plastic reservoirs

@@mitsubishikid1187 Yep pretty much what this is! Only difference is this is a big medical pump syringe I got from an old job where I tested the pumps. With just water, by the way, hah. :)

I do what I can. :)

Ey glad to hear it you're very welcome!

Hope you enjoyed! More soon. Sorry for delay. :)

You're welcome!

Many thanks! At least it got this thing to move. 😁

Truly appreciate it! Glad if this video was helpful. Lemme know if you have any questions.

Getting a bad slave new is something I have heard of. If you bought it local, might try to exchange. When I was out with the BoostedBoiz they actually got a bad brand new master for Hondaru and were really confused for hours. Otherwise, are you still using the stock line? You could have air trapped in the accumulator perhaps. I'm not super familiar with it. You could also try "bench bleeding" the master, basically how I did it in the car. Also make sure you bleed the slave by pushing the rod in by hand with the bleeder open, then closing the bleeder and letting it back out. This makes sure no air is trapped around the piston. Sorry I can't give a definite diagnosis, but it sounds like exactly how mine was acting with the bad master. Good luck!

Right? Good result! I think there is still a tiiiny bit of air in the system, but it's mostly good. BTW I subbed to your channel in case you put out more vids in the future. :)

Some good old Mopar Mitsubishi parts swappin'!

TBH I love a good cable clutch. Very simple and has a lot of feel. My 93 and 96 Imprezas both had cable clutches.

until you need a stronger clutch. then your leg is fucked lol

Hey that's awesome! That's how long mine sat. Hahaha. Def recommend Exedy unless you want to go OEM. I'll give you links for the cheapest I can find them. Master: amzn.to/3xCgLq8 ebay.us/M4fwUH Slave: amzn.to/3xz5Zkk ebay.us/HnSB8z Also if you don't already have one, getting a new line will save hassle and remove the annoying inline accumulator: ebay.us/YHiJbv That's pricey though so if you want to get all three in one check this out saves a little: ebay.us/2hxGnZ I verified those parts with the Exedy website, BTW. If you do want links for OEM Nabco parts I can find them too. :)

Tell me about it! I definitely plan to buy most cars in the future from out of state or even out of country, hah. Yes, that's actually the next step. Not caught up on the videos yet, but hopefully videos on fixing the tower early next year. I got my gas welder back from an exchange, got gas, have sheet metal, and a donor tower. Lots of molten healing soon!

Hahaha and I am very happy for you! Such is my lot for now. :)

Sounds like a vacuum leak potentially or an idle control issue. I'm not sure what sort of IAC valve the GSX uses. The first thing I would look for though is a vacuum leak.

@@802Garage Ok thanks I'm gonna try and see today, after I do my clutch master and slave cylinder thanks to your video.

@@oscargutierrez970 Good luck! Hope the videos are helpful.

Could just be trapped air, could be a bad master or bad slave off the shelf which does happen. Try "bench" bleeding the master and making sure you bleed the slave by pushing the rod in with the bleeder open, closing the bleeder, and letting the rod back out. Good luck and thanks for the comment!

Thanks man I’ll follow your advice and hope for the best ! 🤘🏻

@@Jay-gu3zx Thanks and good luck. Let me know if you make progress or need more help.

Thank you! The quick answer is yes cutting the line is an option and as you said it's best to replace it anyways. That said if you are in a pinch now, a Vice-Grips would likely be able to help you loosen it. If you want to save the line I'd wire brush the threads, spray penetrating lube, and then get it to start spinning with locking pliers. You'll likely have to reinstall with locking pliers as well. Alternatively you could grind some fresh flats on the nut. My recommendation would be to cut the line, remove the master, and replace the entire line with stainless. It removes some added complexity from the system and really just makes it easier in general. Plus people say it improves the feel of the system. Arguably looks cool too. You could either get just the line or get a slave and master kit. Here are some links to help you out.

@@802Garage 👍🏼🔥 Awesome. THANK YOU again...

No problem. :)

Yeah! I also had DSM Billy tell me I should try reverse bleeding. So I may make a video about pushing fluid from the slave cylinder up and out of the master with the syringe. We'll see.

802 Garage please do in Gavin trouble with mine I already bleed it like 37 times and the pedal feels very spongy !! I even had a hose conected to a vacuum on another car and turn the other car on sou the vacuum suck the fluid and filled up the reservoir like 5 times and still nothing

@@christopheralexzander4861 TBH it sounds like you just have a bad master cylinder. When you open the bleeder on the slave and push the clutch pedal does it push out a lot of fluid?

Yep! Vermont channel. I'm in the NEK where you at?

@@802Garage Im from SB but own a house in Williston now. I have a silver EVO.

@@4gclipseGT I used to live over that way for a while. But grew up here. Love a good Evo!

Oh wow Kodiaks are rare even here. Yes, the Eclipse GSX is turbocharged and all wheel drive! The Eclipse GS-T was also turbocharged, but front wheel drive. The GS and RS were non-turbo with a Chrysler engine and were front wheel drive. The Spyder could come with non-turbo or turbocharged Mitsubishi engines and were front wheel drive. That's primarily info for the second gen Eclipse. DSM in general were interesting cars. You may or may not know they also came as the Eagle Talon and Plymouth Laser. Lots more trim levels to keep track of especially if you go back to the first gen! This car has the legendary 4G63 engine, same as the Evo until the X model.

Actually fun fact, the drivetrain in the GSX is basically the same as the Evo I-III because the IV and on switched engine sides, primarily for weight distribution, I believe.

Thanks! I actually did have a few stuffed down there in the video I think you just couldn't see, if memory serves. Def should have had more though. 😂 I also sprayed everything down and cleaned up obviously. Plus I think I had sprayed some WD-40 to protect it a bit. Nice to see you!

You want a link for the master and slave?

I’ve heard really good stuff about fluid film I’m curious to try it myself

I have similar plans. It's kind of pricey, but I do plan to basically oil coat everything and also the inside of panels etc. Want to work out my own affordable rust prevention methods.

802 Garage I am battling the rust demons myself. Nothing has worked super well in the cheap range like the rustoleum rust reformer is worthless. I have a quart of eastmans rust reformer that was 45 for a quart that has good reviews but I wanna get a compressor and spray gun first as I’ve read once you open it and expose it to air you’re limited in time to use it. You should do a video about it, would be nice to find a usable solution as my truck has surface rust but no rot yet

Yep. My guess would be master cylinder if there is no obvious leak at the slave. I'd either go Nabco which is OEM or Exedy which is what I got.

@@802Garage Thanks for the tip!👍

@@Pauleazy420 Sure thing let me know if you have questions.

Someday! If Scotty doesn't steal it.

Just had lots going on and needed to get work done on family cars and the house. Didn't take the time to edit, but I did film a lot. Finally getting around to it!

Hmmm, well obviously not enough since I take such long breaks working on it! Hah. I guess for me it's a personal quest. It's about testing my skills and perseverance. It's about showing people that they can do what they want even if a ton of people tell you it isn't worth the time and effort. It won't cost me a lot of money to fix rust, and it will help me develop new skills and knowledge. Plus I get to learn more about the car in general fixing it and it's not like I have money for a much nicer chassis. These cars are also getting rarer in true GSX form and if people can restore a Mustang with nothing left but some frame rails we need to start treating import classics like they matter too. Plus when it is up and running proper it's a great story and something truly my own. So there is no one answer I guess, but it is a lot about having fallen in love with the car while it sat there. I just couldn't part it out anymore. That and probably above all else just proving to myself that I can do it. It is absolutely not worth much money, but it honestly hasn't cost me that much. It isn't "worth" the time and effort either, but most car pursuits aren't. They're about the journey I guess. There are also probably some parallels with my life about coming from very little and wanting to make it all better. Always having rust buckets and not having the means to make them better. That's a whole other avenue though. Hope that answers your question!

@@802Garage Wow, I'm satisfied with that answer. Thanks so much for taking your time to write such philosophical answer. It definitely inspired me.

@@802Garage dam man we really are brothers from another mother lol

Hahaha it can't rust, it's aluminum! That said there was definitely some corrosion. 😂
