    Re: help? girlfriends eclipse won't start

    its a single overhead cam motor it won't be hard at all to replace the timing belt in it but if you craked it as many times as you have your gonna need a new set of heads chances are you ****ed the valves just hope none of them hit any pistons

            check fuses and relays too; my buddy had that happen to his eclipse and turned out his fuel pump relay went bad; I swapped it out with his ABS relay :P just to get him to the store to get a new one.

                no, actually I haven't...i haven't been up to her house lately...i told her dad to check relays, fuses, and the timing belt... i assumed he put the battery back in and tried it... and even though he blew a sparkplug, he doesn't think he needs a new set... even though i think you do if your missing one...he says he doesn't have a way to check relays and fuses... so im not to sure, doesn't seem like much i can do, so i think its just gonna be out of comission for a while till he/she gets some cash to take it in to a shop :(
