I have had this same problem for years but I recently kind of overcame it. I have a manual plug button set up but what really helped was now I pushed the accelerator to the floor and then pull back a few inches. Then run the plugs for 5 seconds on the 6-volt setting and it starts right up. I...
I wasn’t really able to get any of the extra metal out of there. It seems pretty solid for what looks like a pretty thin chunk. I might try again with a smaller pick. Thanks for posting the pic @13mclean
The balancer shaft was an accidental upload. That one should be fine.Here is another view of the IP. I didn't think I had created a hold in the housing. I was hoping at worst I mangled an existing one. You should be able to zoom in pretty far on that image
That's for the tips everyone! Unfortunately things did not go so well and I think I have done some costly damage. I decided to try the drill/screw method. My first mistake was not looking at the new seal before I started. If I had I would have seen this thing is made of metal. So I went in with...
How did you get that seal out? I’m staring at mine now and it’s refusing to come out. I’m replacing it because a ton of fuel was coming out when we were taking the engine apart.
I would love a hand but I don't think I'll get to the actual master cylinder until tomorrow. I'm still waiting for a few tools to show up from Amazon.
I think I have the dash almost ready to come off. I'm working on the switches and then I'll see if my metric allen wrenches work. If not I'll go...
I think I'm going to at least pull apart the dash to reduce some of the labor costs. Maybe I'll give replacing it a try myself but I'm not sure I want to wing it since I've never done this kind of repair before. I'll give some local Mitsubishi places a call.
Does Anyone that used the autozone replacement have any complaints after running them for awhile ? I had mentioned to my mechanic that I might need this repair done and he was very much against me using an autozone part when the labor costs would be so high for this repair.
