Turn over but it wont start

My 1996 Mitsubishi Eclipse 1996 2.0 turbo will turn over but it wont start. We checked the spark plugs and cleaned them. Our battery seems it wont keep the jucie and its brand new but it has been sitting for a month and half. Would my battery be its problem if it doesnt have enough juice or should I keep looking at the coil, disturbutor and spark plugs?

SOURCE: 1990 mitsubishi eclipse wont stay running

ok heres the thing when a car sets for a long time you have to do more then just clean the tank you also need to flush and replace all fluids in it and replace the fuel filter (that one is key because it empties out the fuel lines and injectors) and also please do youself a favor and replace the timing belt i can not stress that enough every 60,000 miles or 18 months please just to be safe replace the timing belt these 6 bolt 2.0 engines are great and so easy and cheap to build but if you brealk that timing belt you will be buying a new engine but truth be told sonds like you have and intake sensor thats gone out pop ur air can off and check the mas for a wasp nest or something like that

SOURCE: crankshaft position sensor location

Hello. One way to check if it is working is when you try to start the car does the needle move on you tac? If not then your crank sensor is more then likely the problem. It is located on the backside of the engine under the intake manifold. If is in about the center of the block. There will be a 10mm bolt holding the sensor in. If you decide to change it yourself (not to terrible of a job) unplug the sensor, remove the bolt and spin it back and forth slightly while pulling it out. It may be stoburn and you might have to work at it for a little bit (not a done of room) but it will come. When it's out the sensor will be shaped kind of like an L. I have changed a few of these over time and they can be a little stoburn. To install just reverse the process.

SOURCE: how to remove broken key from the ignition switch

e
if it's broken off just to the inside of the ignition, try using two sewing needles. use them like prybars one on each side. even try a strong magnet. duct tape pushed into the lock to the key might even work. if know one knows but you and you can still start and lock and unlock the car why worry.

Also can review this TIPS GUIDE

I hope helped you (remember rated this help) Good luck.

I have a 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse 2.0 non-turbo which I just purchased a week ago, and during the big storm I was forced to drive threw some pretty deep puddles which in turn eventually killed my car :/ Ive...

How deep was the water? Was it over the hood? Only way you would get water in the engine is through the air cleaner. Was it that deep? If you think you have water in your engine then change your oil. Something electrical got wet like a distributor etc. Park your car in a heated garage with the hood up and have a fan blowing on the engine. This should dry it out if not check everything electrical.
Good luck and thanks for your question and I hope my suggestions help. burdfrenzy

We replaced the cylinder head with a used head all new gaskets now we have compression, fuel and spark but wont start. I am pretty sure the timing is right as we have checked it three times. Any tips????

When you checked the timing did you watch the valves? The crank turns twice for every turn on the cam. Turn the engine over by hand and watch the valves on the number 1 cylinder. When the intake opens and closes, the exhaust should start to open with a little more turning. This is top dead center. Line up you timing marks from here, it shouldn't take much turning. Then check your distributor to make sure the rotor button is lined up with the number 1 spark plug. Hope this helps.

Have a 2000 eclipse it will turn over but wont start i think it may be a sensor, which one?

While cranking the engine over check for spark, then after cranking over for 5 Sec. or so remove a plug or two and check for gas in the cylinders. This will help you narrow it down.

Thanks,
Tom

1990 mitsubishi eclipse gs 2.o turbo. the car crank no start

Sounds like a failed or disconnected ignition coil wire.
Hook up an OBD reader and crank the thing for awhile watch the reader for the code. Look up the code number . You may need a book for your car to do this. The reader will tell you what's amiss.
