What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 1993 Mitsubishi Eclipse

Your Eclipse drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Mitsubishi, from back to front.

When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1993 Mitsubishi Eclipse, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Mitsubishi's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.
