I have a 93' Eclipse now running with a 92' motor.
When I start it however, I get a really bad vibration/rattling sound.
It CAN be driven. It has a slight, but not significant power loss as well.

Attached is a video of the motor idling.

If you need more information, feel free to ask.

the noise sounds like it is the lower end of the motor which will require removal and inspection.
