Okay, well take that back lol. What it ended up being is that the previous owner tried to install that push button start and he sucked it up lol. There was a short in his wiring job that fried the ECU and the TB, so we took out the wiring he put in and replaced the ECU and TB and now it drives like a dream!
So it went like:
92 Eclipse - $800
Mechanic - $700
getting another DSM on the road: priceless, of course! |
