c;SCOPE OF MAINTENANCE, REPAIR AND
DEFINITION OF TERMS
SERVICING EXPLANATIONSSTANDARD VALUE
bThis manual provides explanations, etc. concerning
procedures for the inspection, maintenance, repair
and servicing of the subject model. Unless other-
wise specified, each service procedure covers all
models. Procedures covering specific models are
identified by the model codes, or similar designation
(engine type, transaxle type, etc.). A description of
these designations is covered in this unit under
“VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION”.
SERVICE ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES“Service Adjustment Procedures” are procedures
for performing inspections and adjustments of
particularly important locations with regard to the
construction and for maintenance and servicing, but
other inspections (for looseness, play, cracking,
damage, etc.) must also be performed.
SERVICE PROCEDURESThe service steps are arranged in numerical order
and attentions to be paid in performing vehicle
service are described in detail in SERVICE POINTS.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Troubleshootings are classified into master trouble-
shooting and group troubleshooting and located as
follows:
The master troubleshooting is prepared when the
trouble symptom relates to two or more groups and
given in MASTER TROUBLESHOOTING.
The group troubleshooting guide is prepared for
causes of problems related to that individual groupIndicates the value used as the standard for judging
the quality of a part or assembly on inspection or the
value to which the part or assembly is corrected and
adjusted. It is given by tolerance.
LIMITShows the standard for judging the quality of a part
or assembly on inspection and means the maximum
or minimum value within which the part or assembly
must be kept functionally or in strength. It is a value
established outside the range of standard value.
REFERENCE VALUEIndicates the adjustment value prior to starting the
work (presented in order to facilitate assembly and
adjustment procedures, and so they can be com-
pleted in a shorter time).
CAUTIONIndicates the presentation of information particularly
vital to the worker during the performance of
maintenance’ and servicing procedures in order to
avoid the possibility of injury to the worker; or
damage to component
.parts, or a reduction of
component or vehicle function or performance, etc.
INDICATION OF TIGHTENING TORQUEThe tightening torque shown in this manual is a
basic value with a tolerance of
+lO% except the
following cases when the upper and lower limits of
tightening torque are given.
(1) The tolerance for the basic value is within
+ I no/-
only; a troubleshooting guide is prepared for eachI iv,“.appropriate group.(2) Special bolts or the like are in use.
(3) Special tighteningmethods are used.
MODEL INDICATIONS
The following abbreviations are used in this manual for classification of model types.M/T:Indicates the manual transaxle, or models equipped with the manual transaxle.
A/T:Indicates the automatic transaxle, or models equipped with the automatic transaxle.
MPI: Indicates the multi-point injection, or engines equipped with the multi-point injection.
Turbo: Indicates an engine with turbocharger, or a model equipped with such an engine.
Non-Turbo: Indicates an engine without turbocharger, or a model equipped with such an engine.
FWD: Indicates the front wheel drive vehicles.
AWD; Indicates the all wheel drive vehicles.

Caution
\‘i
d
This vehicle cannot be towed by a wrecker using sling-typeequipment to prevent the bumper from deformation.
If this vehicle is towed, use wheel lift or flat bed equip-
ment.The vehicle may be towed on its rear wheels for extended
distances provided the parking brake is released. It is recom-
mended that vehicles be towed using the front pickup
whenever possible.
REAR TOWING PICKUP
Caution
This vehicle cannot be towed by a wrecker using sling-typeequipment to prevent the bumper from deformation.
If this vehicle is towed, use wheel lift or flat bed equip-
\
ment.‘L*3Manual transaxle vehicles may be towed on the front wheels,
provided the transaxle is in neutral and the drive-line has not
been damaged. The steering wheel must be clamped in the
straight-ahead position with a steering wheel clamping device
designed for towing service use.
CautionDo not use steering column lock to secure front wheel
position for towing.
Automatic transaxle vehicle may be towed on the front wheels
at speeds not to exceed 50 km/h (30 mph) for a distances not to
exceed 30 km (18 miles).
CautionIf these limits cannot be met, the front wheels must be
placed on a tow dolly.
TOWING WHEN KEYS ARE NOT AVAILABLE
When a locked vehicle must be towed and keys are not
available, the vehicle may be lifted and towed from the front,
provided the parking brake is released. If not released, the rear
wheels should be placed on a tow dolly.

GENERAL - Maintenance Service00-39ogPOO268. ENGINE OIL FILTER (Change)
MOOEAEJThe quality of replacement filters varies considerably. Only high
quality filters should be used to assure most efficient service.
Genuine oil filters require that the filter be capable of
withstanding a pressure of 256 psi are high quality filters and
are recommended as follows:
Oil Filter Part No.
MITSUBISHI Genuine Parts: MD136790
ENGINE OIL FILTER SELECTIONThis vehicle is equipped with a full-flow, throw-away oil filter.
The same type of replacement filter is recommended as a
replacement filter for this vehicle. It is possible, particularly in
cold weather, that this vehicle may develop high oil pressure
for a short duration. You should be sure that any replacement
filter used on this vehicle is a high-quality filter and is capable of
withstanding a pressure of 256 psi (1,765
kpa) (manufacturer’s
specifications) to avoid filter and engine damage. The following
is a highquality filter and is strongly recommended for use on
this vehicle: Mitsubishi Engine Oil Filter P/N MD136790.
Any replacement oil filter should be installed in accordance with
the oil filter manufacturer’s installation instructions.
(1) Remove the engine oil filter by using the oil filter wrench.
(2) Clean the oil filter mounting surface of the oil filter bracket.
(3) Coat engine oil to the O-ring of new oil filter.
(4) Turn the oil filter by hand and install to the filter bracket.
NOTEThe oil filter tightening torque is 14 Nm (11
ft.lbs.1.(5) Start and run engine and check for engine oil leaks.
(6) After stopping engine, check oil level and refill as neces-
sary.
9. MANUAL TRANSAXLE (Inspect oil level)
MOOSBCGInspect each component for evidence of leakage, and check
the oil level by remaining the filler plug. If the oil is contami-
nated, it is necessary to replace it with new oil.
(1) With the vehicle parked at a level place, remove the filler
plug.

RING GEAR (engine with a manual transaxle)
When there is wear, cracks, or other damage to the ring gear
teeth, replace the ring gear by the following procedure. Check
the starter motor pinion.
Ring gear replacement procedure:
(1) Tap around the ring gear to loosen and remove it from the
flywheel..
CautionThe ring gear cannot be removed while it is hot.
(2) Heat the ring gear to 300°C (572°F) and install it into the
flywheel.
CRANKSHAFTInspect out-of-roundness and taper of crankshaft journal and
pin.
Limit:Out-of-roundness of journal and pin:
LJ
0.003 mm (.00012 in.)Taper of journal and pin: 0.005 mm
(.00020 in.)
OIL CLEARANCE MEASUREMENT
(I) To check the oil clearance, measure the outside diameter of
the crankshaft journal and the crank pin and the inside
diameter of the bearing. The clearance can be obtained by
calculating the difference between the measured outside
and inside diameters.
Standard value: 0.019
- 0.044 mm i.0007 - .0017 in.)
Limit: 0.1 mm
(.004 in.)
(2) If the oil clearance exceeds the limit, replace the bearing,
and crankshaft if necessary.
