1990 MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE Service Manual

GENERAL - Technical Featureso-5ENGINE
The engines are the transverse-mounted engine
especially for front-engine/front-wheeldrive orfront-engine/4-wheel drive models, the
2.OL DOHC
16-valve engine with high-performance, silent-
operation,low-vibration,low-noise,low-fuel-
consumption features, an engine that fully displays
the most
up-todate engine technology.

FEATURESHigh performance and low fuel consumption
l The rocker arm reduces the valve-actuation torque as well as fuel consumption.
l Air-intake efficiency improved through the adoption of the optimum air-intake system layout.
l Improved response and fuel consumption has been achieved by electronic control multipoint
fuel injection.
l Water-cooled turbocharger.
Quiet operation
l Noise and vibration have been decreased by the adoption of roller rocker arms.
l Noise generated by the valve mechanism has been decreased by the hydraulic auto lash adjusters.
l Vibrations have been decreased by the adoption of bearing caps with beams which increase the
rigidity of the crankshaft support points.
-Serviceability
l Complete self-diagnosis functions.
l Enhanced reliability through the adoption of gold-plated connector terminals.
l Use of an auto tensioner achieves maintenance-free, automatic adjustment of timing belt
tension.
l Use of the auto lash adjusters achieves maintenance-free, automatic adjustment of valve clearance
.o The 2coil ignition system without a distributor supplies sufficient ignition energy even during
high speed operation.

O-6GENERAL - Technical Features
Valve mechanisml The roller rocker arms de-crease losses.due to friction in
the valve system.
l The auto lash adjusters elimin-ate the need to adjust the valve
clearance.
ICombustion chamberThe combustion chamber is pro-
vided with a squish area for high
combustion efficiency.

GENERAL -Technical Featureso-74WD
(Four-wheel drive)The full time 4WD system adopts viscous coupling
unit (VCU) as the differential limiting device for thecenter differential of 4WD vehicle to achieve auto-
matic and ideal distribution of engine torque to the
front and rear wheels.

O-8GENERAL - Technical FeaturesTHEFT-ALARM SYSTEM (OPTION for4WD
VEHICLES)To make the vehicle theftproof, this system is so
designed that the headlights go on and off and the
horn is sounded intermittently for ‘about threeminutes when the locked door, hood or liftgate has
been forced open without using a key.
Furthermore, the starter circuit is interrupted so that
the engine may not be operated, making the vehicle
theftproof.
About 20 seconds after all doors are closed
and locked, the rear hatch is closed, and the
hood is closed---t SYSTEM ARMED4uthorized
