AboutLinda Expertise I have done a lot of work on older Mitsubishi's. Whatever has gone on with someone's car has I am sure happen to the one I work on. A lot of things, though might be the computer it could be a sensor too. Whatever I am not sure of, I will then hunt up the question useing the net. Don't know much about body work or painting a car.
Experience The Mitsubishi Eclipse I work on has over 167,000 miles on it. If it could go wrong it has. I have learned a lot from working on the car, reading books and asking people who work on other cars.
Organizations Church, I am a Christian.
Education/Credentials Have some college course on engines, working on them and keeping them repaired. Read a lot of books and try to stay ahead of things.

Question When engaged, the cruise control over controls. i.e. you can feel a slight jerking as the car accelerates and slows while the cruise is trying to maintain a constant speed. It is quite annoying and I suspect hurting my gas mileage as well.
Is this something I can adjust easily myself?
Answer Gary: You will have to replace the cruise control part, they do get old and have to be replaced with a new part from time to time. Still when is the last time you did a good tune up on this car, could be the cruise control is doing its job but your car's engine needs a tune up. That would help your fuel mileage too. Also have you checked the air in your car tires? Keeping them all the same will help a lot too. God bless: Linda
