How Do You Replace A Starter Motor In A 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse?
In production since 1990, the Mitsubishi Eclipse has seen a fair amount of changes along the way. In 1998, the Eclipse engine options were a 2.0-liter engine, a 2.4-liter engine and the 2.0-liter Turbo engine. The most common engine in these cars is the 2.0-liter non-turbo. Making 140 horsepower, the engine has plenty of power for the relatively lightweight Eclipse. For those people who wanted more, the Turbo motor pumps out a solid 210 horsepower. Starter replacement on the engines uses the same procedure with the exception that the turbo engine requires you to remove more of the air-intake system to access the starter underneath it. Loosen the clamp bolt on the negative battery cable end with a wrench. Disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery terminal and set it aside. Make sure it cannot fall back against the battery while you are working on the starter. Locate the clamp at the end of the air-intake hose. Release the clamp and remove the hose, pushing it out of the way
