Anonymous OP Unregistered A	I've been trying to figure out what the power train unit is. I have a used 1990 A/T eclipse GS. The thick black cable labeled Power TR unit (that IS the powertrain right???...)isnt pluged into the slot in the back of the engine. What could be the reason why its previous owner would want to unplug the PTU? Also, do only Canadian DSMs have this b/c people in other DSM forums they never heard of this...maybe its only automatics. [This message has been edited by kros101 (edited August 19, 2000).]

It's not on my 1.8L, and it's on my 2.0L NT, so it probably has something to do with the distributor-less system in the DOHC... ------------------ Trevor 90 Laser RS 1.8L 90 Talon 2.0L NT "I almost beat the bicyclist!!"
