Will it hurt my Mitsubishi Eclipse to drive with old spark plugs?

Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Without the spark of electricity created by spark plugs, your engine doesn’t have the combustion it needs to start — which could leave you stranded on the road. Always replace your spark plugs on time based on Mitsubishi’s recommendations.

What does a puddle underneath my Mitsubishi Eclipse mean?

Puddles could indicate that your vehicle is leaking coolant, oil, or brake fluid. Ignoring these leaks can lead to permanent engine damage, so address these symptoms ASAP with a tune-up service.

Are hard starts and stops bad for my Mitsubishi Eclipse engine?

Hard starts and stops put extra wear and tear on engine components. Smooth, gradual starts and stops, on the other hand, are a great way to help your engine run better. They can also help maximize your fuel economy.

There is no hard and fast rule on how often fuel injectors should be cleaned, and it can vary based on driving habits and fuel type.

Or you may need to clean your fuel injectors as needed if you notice signs of a fuel system problem.

Tune Into Your Mitsubishi Eclipse

Is it tune-up time? If you tend to ignore your car until something goes wrong, it might be time to change your ways, especially if you drive a 2009 Mitsubishi Eclipse. Regular engine tune-ups can optimize your Eclipse’s power on the road. Tune-ups give your engine a boost in efficiency, which can mean better fuel economy (a win for you) and lower emissions (a win for the environment). When you follow the guidelines specified by Mitsubishi for your vehicle’s tune-up schedule, you’re taking vital steps toward keeping your Eclipse’s engine running smoother, longer.

Routine Engine Tune-Up Service for Your Mitsubishi Eclipse

The Firestone Complete Auto Care location in your community offers several Mitsubishi Eclipse engine tune-up services. The standard Firestone Tune-Up is one service option.

A second service option replaces the air and fuel filter in your Eclipse. The third tune-up option is a fuel system cleaning service, which is a three-step process that removes varnish, dirt, and carbon deposits on your Eclipse's fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate. The result? Restored fuel system performance. Consider this when choosing a tune-up service for your Eclipse: your vehicle’s maintenance record and mileage can determine which service is best.
