Low gear oil wont affect engine performance, unless excessive heat has warped something in your differential and its binding. Is the vehicle hard to accelerate as well as it brakes quickly once you stop accelerating. If not, you likely have a different problem. What led you to gear oil, is there noise in your differential. Gear oil is just what it says Oil for the gears. when it runs low they can overheat, but they should get noisy if the oil is low enough not to lubricate and the telltale heavy oil should be all over underneath your engine and transmission in front wheel drive and all over your differential in rear wheel drive

    Telltale sighs of the clutch would be high revs in order to take off, and take off would still be slow. The engine itself would have no loss of power, you'd just have to give it excessive throttle to fake off when the clutch is beginning to wear out

2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse. Yesterday automatic gear shift seemed tight. Check transmission fluid. Fine. Won't release from park today. Is there a shift release button? I can't find it.

Foot on the brake before you shift
Lift up lightly on the shifter and wiggle
If nothing pull the center console and check the shifter to see what is in the way

2007 Mitsubishi eclipse spider 2.4 blowing warm air not cold What is the paid supposed to be I know it takes 19 oz. Of freon I'm I suppose. To discharge before recharge?

Its best to evacuate the a/c but if you are careful you may be able to hook up your freon tank and lightly charge the system if it works cold just let it be and if when it is real hot it feels warm instead of cold you might add just a little more freon but be careful.

2007 Mitsubishi eclipse spider just put in clutch kit now it will not engage I can put it in gear without car on and I can push the car back and forth

Sounds possible you have the friction plate in backwards and there is no clearance. Retrace your steps and check the clutch operating mechanism, then any gear linkage. With the clutch centre plate, the raised part of the spring carrier is usually facing outwards toward the pressure plate fingers.

I dont know where to put the oil for the gear box

Brake fluid is the same fluid you put in the clutch master cylinder. Any mechanic will verify this.
