Every engine requires a certain amount of oil flow to keep the bearings, camshaft, valvetrain and other moving parts lubricated. Oil forms a barrier that prevents metal-to-metal contact and reduces friction and wear within the engine. In the bearings, it forms a wedge that actually lifts and supports the crankshaft and camshaft as they rotate. Oil also serves as the primary means of cooling the bearings as well as the pistons.

93 Mitsubishi Eclipse Oil Pressure gauge - The oil pressure guage goes down when I coast in neutral or stop at a light and put it in neutral. Is this how it is supposed to be What's wrong?

It is normal for oil pressure to be lower at lower rpm. The oil pump is driven off the balance shaft, so the faster the engine spins , the faster the pump spins thus more oil is moved, creating more pressure. However if your pressure drops so low that the oil light comes on, that may be a sign that the main bearings are worn or a pump that has worn. Hope the was helpful.

Where is the fuel shut off on a 97 Mitsubishi eclipse?

I believe the fuel shutoff is located under the rear seat. There should be a power plug you disconnect and this will relieve the pressure in the fuel line.
