problems with a gsx
so when u downshift it feels like i am missfireing, also i am gettin like computer glitches, srs light came on and i lost power stearing. could this be becasue of my belt slipping a liltle bit? what could it be, sparkplugs? injectors?
if you guys could help me i would appriciate it thanks. what would u recomend if it is the sparkplugs or the injectors. if i have to get new injectors i would get ones that would be good with the evo 16g and a 255 fuel pump. |
I would start with a tune up, spark plugs, fuel filter etc. Then if it still runs ****ty, you can narrow it down.
Belt slipping wouldn't cause ecu problems. Check your power steering belt and fluids if your power steering is cutting out. |
what are good spark plugs to get if i am gonna get them i am gonna up grade
|
NGK's are good plugs. Denso's are good also.
|
Check to see if your crank pulley is seperating. Check the alternator output voltage.

exactly what paledsm says....check around your alternator for belt debris(fine black rubber). check your alternator adjustment and make sure the belts are normal. Does your belts chirp or make noise when you start your car? Also check all the pulleys by that motor mount. It sounds like you could have a failing crank pulley and or alternator. If the belt is slipping it isn't charging you battery and that is why your srs light is coming on and it is missfiring because your ecu has no juice to make the car run right. If it is ur pulley and belt problem you water pump belt is probably gonna go at some point when you other belt gets shredded. If that happens watch your temp and shut your car off asap as it will go through the roof. This is a pain in the ass problem and it normally involves a new pulley and an alternator and battery depending on how bad the problem is. Let me know what you find...

ok well my belt was loose so it didnt turn my altern. which in turn shut everything off, as for the spark plugs i went with the NGK plugs and wires i am putting them in tomorrow. and i still need an ac compressor but i know a shop where i go who has one. so i should be back in busniss within the week
|
The alternator adjustments suck ass on the eclipse and make sure you keep the alternator taught and tighten well

yea i hear ya, well ill let u know how it goes tomorrow
|
alty adjustment aint that bad, comapred to a sentra, get some flex hed wrenches, its helps alot. B ut if the alternatador is slipping, you will be surprised at the problems athe it will cause. IUf you remiveds the heat sheild betwseen the alty and the downpipe you are asking for problemos.
|
ok so it was my alternator and my car is back on the road with a new one and some Ngk plugs and wires, and she is niiiiiiice. thanks guys
|
What kind of NGK's did you get?
I suggest 6's for light modding, 7's for mild, 8's for hardcore modding. |

|
Yea there's different types. BPR6ES, BPR7ES, BPR8ES etc.
