Ok I need some help! I have a 1996 Mitsubishi Eclispe Gs that won't start. It has been repaired recently when it was sputtering. Like no horse power.

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

1 Answer

He put in temp sensor and block seal. It was running good but the start up became weak. I would have to start it three times before it would start up! Then it would be shaking and sputtering while it warms up before I could drive. But it drove. I had to put about a half gallon of water in radiator every day. Yesterday I put water in and drove maybe 5miles. While driving in the rain it shut down on me. When I pulled over and went to pop the hood it was already popped! I guess I didn't close it all the way. Would this have anything to do with it not starting?
