2001 Mitsubishi Eclipse Engine Q&A

  • Why does the check engine light in my Eclipse turn on when I start my car? It’s usually normal for your check engine light to turn on upon ignition. It’s just your Eclipse firing up its circuits. The dash light shouldn't stay on. If it does, you might want to bring your vehicle in for service.
  • Why is my Mitsubishi Eclipse making engine noise? Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Mitsubishi Eclipse engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on oil. A high-pitched whistle could signal an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.
  • What could damage my Mitsubishi Eclipse engine? Some driving habits are not so great for your engine. These include driving on a near-empty gas tank, revving the engine while still in Park, or accelerating too quickly, too soon. Steer clear of these habits to help protect engine performance and efficiency.
  • Can I use water in my Mitsubishi Eclipse radiator? While it’s not recommended, you can use water in your Eclipse radiator in emergencies. Normally, you should only use a 50/50 mix of coolant and water or a pre-mixed coolant. However, if you are completely out of coolant and must continue driving, it’s better to have water in your coolant reservoir than nothing.
  • What can cause a Eclipse engine to suddenly stop? If your Eclipse car engine suddenly stops, it could be due to overheating, low fuel, a faulty ignition system, sensor problems, electrical system trouble, or mechanical issues.
