OIL FtLTER SELECTtONThis 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, particularilyin 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 filterand is capable of withstanding a pressure of 256 psi
(manufacturer’s specifications) to avoid filter and engine
damage. The following is a high-quality filter and is stronglyrecommended for use on this vehicle
: Mitsubishi Engine
-Oil Filter Part No. MD031805 or MD084693.
Any replacement oil filter should be installed in accordancewith the oil filter manufacturer’s installation instructions.
(1) Remove the engine oil filler cap.
(2) Remove the engine oil drain plug, and drain out the
engine oil.
(3) Remove the engine oil filter by using the oil filter
wrench.(4) Clean the oil filter mounting surface of the oil filter
bracket.(5) Coat engine oil to the O-ring of new oil filter.
(6) Turn the oil filter by hand to install to the block.
NOTEThe oil filter tightening torque is
11-13 Nm (8-10
ftlbs.).A(7) Supply engine oil.
.(8) Start and run engine and check for engine oil leaks.
(9) After stopping engine, check oil level and replenish as
necessary.9. MANUAL TRANSAXLE (Inspect oil level)
NOOSBCEbInspect each component for evidence of leakage, and
check the oil level by remaining the filler plug. If the oil is
contaminated, it is necessary to replace it with new oil.
1. With the vehicle parked at a level place, remove the
filler plug and check to be sure that the oil level is up tothe lower edge of the filler plug hole.
2. Check to be sure that the transmission oil is not
noticeably dirty, and that it has a suitable viscosity.

_ CAUTION
When servicing brake assemblies or components, do not create dust by sanding, grinding or by cleaning
brake parts with a dry brush or with compressed air. A WATER DAMPENED CLOTH SHOULD BE USED.
Many brake components contain asbestos fibers which can become air-borne if dust is created duringservice operations. Breathing dust which contains asbestos fibers can cause serious bodily harm.
