JIBBBY Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Here is your watered down Miller light beer jzz30 Good call on the repair......... :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xcelr8 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 so it looks like everyone needs to send me beer :P Sorry to bust in here, but since the problem is solved, I am asking for help with what might be a similar problem. It's related to ignition anyway. I p[osted my own thread but cause I'm a newbie, I guess I'm getting no replies... It looks like you know your way around these cars, so I am asking for your help. I justg bought a 99 sc300 and right away it burned out two ingiters. This while at a trusted mechanics shop. They are going thru the car. This baffles them. They know mitsubishis real well; in fact my very modded 3000 gt was built there. I know 3000s but not sc300. Can you help? Anyone? Thanks.

JIBBBY Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Well what happened after you replaced the two? Did they burn out again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xcelr8 Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Jibby: Thanks for the reply. YES. I am facing buying another tomorrow or Tuesday in an attempt to fix. This is crazy. At the price of these things, after a few more , I could have bought a used motor. Any idea where to get them? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

jzz30 Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Sorry jzz30, it looks like my reply was the second post in this thread. Remember to email me the tracking numbers. :D :chairshot: oops! i thought i was the first i'll be sending the beer :P now back to the subject. i wouldnt plug in a new one yet. you should figure out whats burning them up!

92Lex Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Hahha. See....I told you so. But like jzz30 said, don't plug in new coil packs yet...and send me the beers... :D . It's best that you check everything out before "shotgunning" it. There's a reason that the second set of ignitors burnt out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JIBBBY Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 Sounds like there is a bad ground or an electrical short and or over load problem....That surely doesn't sound like an easy fix....ECU, wire harness, etc....Hard to tell... Good luck on the fix wish I could be more help... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xcelr8 Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I appreciate this help. With only 35,000 miles I don't think it's the computer, but maybe a ground. Great place to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
