After 1990 Romanian Revolution, Steaua Mecanica spent only two more seasons at this level, then relegating at the end of the 1991–92 season, despite a rank in the middle of the table, 9th of 16. In this season was made a re-organization of the Romanian football league system, thus relegating more teams than in a normal season. After relegation, the club was renamed again, this time as "Mecanica Huși" and promoted back in the third tier at the end of 1995–96 season, but only to relegate a year later after a weak ranking, 18th of 18.
