necessary.
(5) Clean drain plug and tighten drain plug with gasket to 30
-35 Nm (22
- 25 ft.lbs.).
(6) Clean both gasket surfaces of transaxle case and oil pan.
(7) Install oil pan with new gasket and tighten oil pan bolts to
10 - 12 Nm (7.5 - 8.5 ft.lbs.).
(8) Pour 4.5 liters (4.8 qts.) of specified ATF into case through
dipstick hole. [Total quantity of ATF required is approx. 7.5
liters (7.9 qts.). Actually however, approx. 4.5 liters (4.8 qts.)
of fluid can be replaced because rest of fluid remains in
torque converter.]
Specified fluid: Dia ATF SP or MITSUBISHI PLUS ATF or
equivalent(9) Start engine and allow to idle for at least two minutes.
Then, with parking brake on, move selector lever momen-
tarily to each position, ending in “N” Neutral position.
(lO)Add sufficient ATF to bring fluid level to lower mark.
Recheck fluid level after transaxle is at normal operating
temperature. Fluid level should be between upper and
lower marks of “HOT” range. Insert dipstick fully to prevent
dirt from entering transaxle.
11. ENGINE COOLANT (Change)
MOOSBEHCheck the cooling system parts, such as radiator, heater, and
oil cooler hoses, thermostat and connections for leakage and
damage.

8.Remove te heat protectors (front and rear) from the exhaust
manifold.
Loosen the radiator drain plug, remove two drain plugs from
the engine block (one for each bank) and remove the
radiator cap to discharge coolant.
Remove the reservoir tank and discharge coolant.
When coolant has been discharged, pour water through the
filler port to flush coolant passage.
Coat the threads of the engine drain plugs with the
specified sealant and tighten the plugs to specification.
Specified sealant: 3M Nut Locking Part No. 4171 or
equivalentTightening torque: 40 Nm (29
ftlbs.)Fit the radiator drain plug securely.
Mount the reserve tank.
Slowly pour coolant into the radiator to the brim and also
into the reserve tank up to the FULL line.

14UOO729. Install the radiator cap securely.
10.
Start’the engine and warm up until the thermostat opens.
11. Race the engine up to around 3,000 rpm several times, then
stop the engine.,12. When the enkine has cooled down, remove the radiator cap
L/and add coolant up to the brim. Add coolant to the reserve
tank up to the FULL line.

1. Lift up the vehicle.
2.Loosen the radiator drain plug, remove the drain plug from
the rear bank of the engine and remove the radiator cap to
discharge coolant.
3. Follow the same steps 3 to 12 above.
12.DISC BRAKE PADS (Inspect for wear)MOOSBFDCheck for fluid contamination and wear. Replace complete set
of pads if defective.
Caution
The pads for the right and left wheels should be replaced atIIthe same time. Never “split” or intermix brake pad sets. AllUfour pads must be replaced as a complete set.
Thickness of lining (A):
Limit2.0 mm (.08 in.)
13. BRAKE HOSES (Check for deterioration or
leaks)
MOOSBHBInspection of brake hoses and tubing should be included in all
brake service operations.
The hoses should be checked for:
1.Correct length, severe surface cracking, pulling, scuffing or
worn spots. (If the fabric casing of the hoses is exposed by
cracks or abrasion in the rubber hose cover, the hoses
should be replaced. Eventual deterioration of the hose may
occur with possible bursting failure.)
2. Faulty installation, casing twisting or interference with
wheel, tire or chassis.
14. BALL JOINT AND STEERING LINKAGE SEALS
(Inspect for grease leaks and damage)
MOOSglC1. These components, which are permanently lubricated at
the factory, do not require periodic lubrication. Damaged
seals and boots should be replaced to prevent leakage or
contamination of the grease.
2.Inspect the dust cover and boots for proper sealing, leakageIdand damage. Replace them if defective.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
(1)A Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), which uses a driver-side air bag, has been installed in the 3668GT.(2)The SRS includes the following components: impact sensors, SRS diagnosis unit: SRS warning light, air bagmodule, clock spring, interconnecting wiring. Other SRS-related components (that may have to beremoved/installed in connection with SRS service or maintenance) are indicated in the table of contents byan asterisk (*).
WARNING!(1)Improper service or maintenance of any component of the SRS, or any SRS-related component, can lead topersonal injury or death to service personnel (from inadvertent firing of the air bag) or to the driver (from
rendering the SRS inoperative).
(2) Service or maintenance of any SRS component or SRS-related component must be performed only at an
authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
(3) MlTSUBISHI dealer personnel must thoroughly review this manual, and especially its GROUP 52B -Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), before beginning any service or maintenance of any component of the
ISRS or any SRS-related component.
