Starting 1991 Mitsubishi Lancer After 12 Years

[@johnperalta9415]

I love those 89-93 lancers! It brings back a lot of memories of me and my brother pretending to drive it when we were kids.. It breaks my heart to see those abandoned and most here in the Philippines are sold as scrap and parted out

[@나노-s4p]

I lived in Makati in 1991 when I was 10. At that time my dad's car was Lancer GLX

[@toyotacorollaaltis8613]

A 94 Lancer was my first car in 2008 it ran horrible since it had a serious compression issue but I loved it so much

[@markkalauz7484]

Need to fix the clutch, some sort of electric work, a big rust removing, and a huge cleanup. Aaand ready to go! After 12 years of sleep all horses are running again! Great video, thx! 😎

[@marts337]

Look, it just has no point. Its not like a cool project car like a bmw e34 or some mercedes from this era that builds up value if in great condition. In this country (estonia, the same where flexiny is from) mint condition lancers are worth like 500-1000 euros. For this price, you might find a road legal car that is ready to drive, has been really well taken care of and maybe even has a previous owner, who is some older guy who hasnt driven it in winter. Besides this, it has been standing still for 12 years (it propably needs new seals, new belts and etc). Its not like you take an engine that has been standing still for 12 years outside, turn the key and go to the MOT, lol. If somebody needs a donor for his Lancer then this should be a decent car for it for like a few hundred euros.

[@Tenkaichibudokai22]

Nah, the rust contributes to a vintage look, leave the rust.

[@nicholasadhytiarianto8024]

That just show the reliability of japanese cars, sitting for 12 years and AC still works, coolant is full, oil isn't leaking, power steering works fuel pump needs a bit of push but it works afterwards, i has this exact engine on a pick up that my family bought brand new since 2004 and it's been used daily until now, the odo meter has probably went back to 000000 multiple times by now and thing is still running very strong💪

[@andrewnahnichuk6300]

I've just bought one of these a couple of days ago! Just love the old school design and style of those Japanese cars. I am 35 and the car is almost my age still running great!! Some minor cosmetic work to get done, change all liquids and filters and ready to go and be happy. My engine is 1.5l fuel injection. The car was manufactured in 1990. 👍❤️😉

[@jimmyjimjims7483]

In the US these were called a Mirage, my dad had a silver one with a huge dent in the rear quarter haha. I always remember the exact sound of how these start up

[@TeddyRSS1666]

In my country we don't have this model (never see this model) but we have 1993 mirage based lancer (headlamps was mirage, body was lancer model that was similar to evo i, ii and iii) engine option was natural aspiration inline four 1.3L to 2.0L have a carburetor and fuel injection version. Good car too.

[@travancorepistons7309]

That Mitsubishi looks solid 🔥🔥🔥

[@Francisco-j1e]

Slipping clutch is due normal usage, these cars are super good quality. Happy to see 100k people interested in this old proper beauty :)

[@Knaeckebrotsaege]

slipping clutch and tow hook... wonder where that came from lol

[@Enakaji]

Nice one. I own a Mitsu Colt of that bodystyle, its also a 91 with the 1.5 12 Valve 90HP engine and I love that car. For me, the cars build in the late 80ies and early 90ies are some of the best Mitsubishi ever built. I also own a 1990 Lancer Station Wagen with the bodystyle of the older pre 1988 generation but with the same 1.5 12 Valve MPI engine, a 91 Eclipse and a 97 Space Runner. They are all great cars and are super reliable with regular maintenance, the main thing you have to keep an eye on with these generation is rust. Edit: Changing the Clutch on these is rather easy, because the fivespeed gearbox isn't really all that heavy (it weights around 35 Kg) and is easy to remove, since only one of the four mounts connects to the gearbox and thus has to be removed, the other three are connected to the engine block (unlike newer mitsubishis build after 96 with the swapped engineposition, where three of the four engine mounts are actually connected to the gearbox instead).

[@Knaeckebrotsaege]

I had an 89 Colt with a similar body style to this. Absolutely loved it, but some c*nt in a BMW SUV who thought it's more important to dick around with their phone rear-ended and totaled it :( Haven't been able to find one that's not too far gone since then (this was in 2011). The few that are available and not a swiss cheese have the sellers ask ridiculous prices, and it's only getting worse...

[@Enakaji]

@@Knaeckebrotsaege Its the same in germany, wich is why I'm taking really good care of mine. Over here you can actually check with the official Departments how many vehicles of a specific type are still registered on the roads and currently there are less then 80 of that generation of Colt registered in all of Germany.

Mom had a1976 Dodge Colt sedan. Gold with black vinyl top. Ended up being my first car. It was very reliable, dependable. Shape of three Lancer in this video reminds me of the 1991 Isuzu Stylus (US version). I think it was called Gemini or iMark in other markets. I owned one and loved it.

I bought a non-running Lancer C62 with the 4G15 8V engine for 600€. Turns out it was the ECU at fault, the injectors did not open. Sent it for repairs and for 180€ got the ECU fixed. Since then I have a running perfect condition Lancer with 61000km for 800€. Recently I’ve bought another one. The GTi version for 850€. It wasn’t running for 8 Years. I had to also clean up the tank and replace the fuel pump. The car is running but it still has a lot of work to be done. Very impressed by the Japanese for making such reliable and cool cars!

[@Raj_Bonzer]

luckily you got this model brother.

[@carwrtr1]

Please repair this car and keep it going! These were very reliable cars, and that’s providing the owner kept them serviced. This car needs to have a fuel system service, and this will help this car to fire on the first crank. If this were my car, I would have never let it get like this!

in the Philippines we called it " Lancer Singkit" 😍😎

[@wasted_k]

Why the "Singkit"? What does that exactly mean? I always wanted to know.

[@MigsES02]

@@wasted_k”singkit” means something along narrow eyes, or small eyes. Basically, singkit means squinted eyes. They called this generation of lancer “lancer singkit” because it had the narrowest lights of all lancers, while previous and later generations had bigger/taller headlights. I know I'm 2 years late, but there's your answer!

@@MigsES02 Makes sense now, thanks.

I have a 1991 Lancer GTI 16V 1.8L that I got as my first car (excluding an Opel Frontera A LWB 2.4 that I kept for just some months, needed a lot of repairs) and I love this little car. Needs new bushings and it recently started leaking brake fluid from behind the pump, but other than that not too bad for a 31 year old car I got for 1300€! Looks well specially besides my mothers 3 door 1988 Montero carburated 2.6L Its just a lovely little thing on winding mountain roads, and can even keep up with some 2000s BMWs on the highway. Just wished it had a 6th gear and AWD-Turbo, but that can get fixed (Cyborg)

It just astonished me that people abandoned cars for some of the silliest reason, such as a clutch. I understand cars don't last forever. However, even new vehicle still requires money to maintain them. I swear some people have way too much money.

Reading some of the comments I understand why. "putting in a new clutch means the parts and labor will end up more than the car's worth", it pains my heart to see people being such penny pinchers that they'll have no problem leaving a nice car in which everything works to die just because one of the wear items needs to be replaced.
