GENERAL - Maintenance Service
(2) Check that the transaxle oil level is at the lower portion of
the filler plug hole. For AWD-vehicles, check that the
transfer oil level is at the portion shown in the illustration.
(3) Check to be sure that the transmission oil is not noticeably
‘ddirty, and that it has a suitable viscosity.
10. AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE
(Inspect fluid level)
MOOSEDL
1.Drive until the fluid temperature reaches the usual tempera-
ture
[70 - 80°C (160 - 18O”F)I.2. Place vehicle on level floor.
3. Move selector lever sequentially to every position to fill
torque converter and hydraulic circuit with fluid, then place
lever in “N” Neutral position. This operation is necessary to
be sure that fluid level check is accurate.
4. Before removing dipstick, wipe all dirt from area around
dipstick. Then take out the dipstick and check the condition
of the fluid.
The transaxle should be overhauled under the following
conditions.
l If there is a “burning” odor.
l If the fluid color has become noticeably blacker.
lIf there is a noticeably great amount of metal particles in
the fluid.
5. Check to see if fluid level is in “HOT” range on dipstick. If
fluid level is low, add ATF until level reaches “HOT” range.
Low fluid level can cause a variety of conditions because it
allows pump to take in air along with fluid. Air trapped in
hydraulic circuit forms bubbles which make fluid spongy.
Therefore, pressures will be erratic.
Improper filling can also raise fluid level too high. When
transaxle has too much fluid, gears churn up foam and
cause same conditions which occur with low fluid level,
resulting in accelerated deterioration of ATF transmission
fluid.
In either case, air bubbles can cause overheating, fluid
oxidation, which can interfere with normal valve, clutch, and
servo operation. Foaming can also result in fluid escaping
from transaxle vent where it may be mistaken for a leak.
6. Be sure to examine fluid on dipstick closely.
L/(Change fluid)
Drain the fluid and check whether there is any evidence of
contamination.
Replenish with new fluid after the cause of any contamination
has been corrected.
(1) Remove drain plug at transaxle case bottom to let fluid
drain.(2) Place a drain container with large opening under the
transaxle oil pan.
(3) Loosen oil pan bolts and tap pan at one corner to break it
loose allowing fluid to drain, then remove oil pan.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
(1)A Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), which uses a driver-side air bag, has been installed in the 3000GT.(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 be
removed/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 to
personal injury or death to service personnel (from inadvertent firing of the air bag) or to the driver (fromrendering 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) MITSUBISHI 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 theSRS or any SRS-related component.

TRANSMISSION OIL LEVEL INSPECTIONRefer to GROUP 00
- Maintenance Service.
TRANSMISSION OIL REPLACEMENTM22FCAI(1) Position vehicle on a flat level.
(2) Remove filler and drain plugs and allow the transmission oil
to drain.
(3) Refill the transaxle to the proper level with specified
transmission oil. The oil level should be the bottom of the oil
filler hole.
Transmission oil: Hypoid gear oil, SAE 75W-85W con-
forming to API classification GL-4 or
higherC2.3 liters (2.4 pts.)]
SPEEDOMETER CABLE REPLACEMENTMUFEALl
1.Correctly insert the adapter into the instrument panel, and
fasten the new speedometer cable.
2.Install the grommet so that, as shown in the illustration, the
cable attachment part and the projecting part are horizontal.
CautionThe cable arrangement should be made so that the
radius of cable bends is 150 mm (5.9 in.) or more.
3.At the transaxle end of the speedometer cable, the key joint
should be inserted into the transaxle, and the nut should be
securely tightened.
Caution
If the cable is not correctly and securely connected, it
may cause incorrect indication. by the speedometer, orabnormal noise. Be sure to connect it correctly.
