I would just get a shop manual on the turbo car, that will have all your wiring diagrams in it. Actually check the eclipse FAQ's there is an online manual for the 4g63. Its a PDF and kinda a pain to load but it should have it in there as well.

one more thing the motor is turning but not starting we checked the spark wires and coil and there fine but the motor started to turn slowly could it be that one of the vaccum lines could be the problem

Check your timing marks and check compression.

Do u have fuel?

hmmm if it is turning slow it could either be timing or try charging your battery.. if it is struggleing to turn i would check the battery first, if it is not struggling, just slow, i would check timing

if you have good spark then its possibly not getting fuel. Make sure the fuel pump is clicking when your trying to start. Also make sure some simple things are in order like you MAF sensor is plugged in
