surfaces. Resurface head if warpage exceeds specification. See
CYLINDER HEAD (SOHC) table under ENGINE SPECIFICATIONS at end of
article. Replace cylinder head if it is not within specification after
resurfacing.
Installation (SOHC)
1) Ensure mating surfaces are clean and dry. Note
identification mark located on front of head gasket. Identification
marks are: "R" for SOHC, "2DN" for DOHC non-turbocharged and "2DT" for
DOHC turbocharged engine. Install head gasket with identification mark
toward timing belt side of engine and facing upward. Ensure all holes
are aligned.
NOTE: Install head gasket with identification mark toward timing
belt side of engine and facing upward. Ensure all holes
align. Install washers on head bolts with chamfered side
toward bolt head.
2) Install cylinder head and bolts. Ensure washers are
installed on head bolts with chamfered side toward bolt head. Using
proper sequence, tighten bolts to specification in 2-3 steps. See
Fig. 5 . See appropriate TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table at end of article.
3) Apply sealant to rocker cover sealing surfaces before
installation. See Fig. 6. Ensure rocker cover gasket projections are
aligned with notches in rocker cover. Coat all "O" rings with oil, and
install a new "O" ring on distributor adapter and oil dipstick tube.
4) Coat camshaft area with oil prior to installing
distributor adapter. To complete installation, reverse removal
procedure. Tighten bolts and nuts to specification. See appropriate
TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table. After engine reaches normal operating
temperature, allow engine to cool, and retighten cylinder head bolts.

DESCRIPTION
Slight variations exist among the manual A/C-heater systems
used. Either Sanden Scroll or Nippondenso 10-cylinder compressor is
used. Cycling of the compressor clutch is controlled by switches which
monitor temperatures and pressures.
Compressors will only operate within the normal operating
temperatures and pressures set for each model. An electric condenser
fan operates whenever A/C system is operating. System components used
vary depending upon model. Most systems include an A/C compressor
control unit, fan switch, evaporator, temperature sensor, high and low
(or dual) pressure switch, engine coolant temperature switch,
compressor, condenser, receiver-drier and various pipes and hoses.

On-Vehicle Adjustments
Chrysler Motors: Colt, Colt 200, Colt Vista,
Ram-50, Stealth, Summit
Mitsubishi: Eclipse, Galant, Mirage, Montero,
Pickup, 3000GT
ENGINE MECHANICAL
Before performing any on-vehicle adjustments to fuel or
ignition system, ensure engine mechanical condition is okay.
VALVE CLEARANCE
NOTE: All engines except 1.5L use hydraulic valve lifters. Valve
adjustment is only required on 1.5L engines. To check
hydraulic valve lifter operation, see CHECKING HYDRAULIC
VALVE LIFTERS.
MECHANICAL VALVE LIFTERS
CAUTION: DO NOT rotate crankshaft in opposite direction of normal
engine rotation.
1.5L
1) Ensure engine is at normal operating temperature. Remove
all spark plugs and valve cover. Rotate crankshaft to position
cylinder No. 1 on TDC of compression stroke. Adjust intake valves on
cylinders No. 1 and No. 2, and exhaust valves on cylinders No. 1 and
No. 3. See VALVE CLEARANCE ADJUSTMENT table for specification.
2) Rotate crankshaft 360 degrees to position cylinder No. 4
on TDC of compression stroke. Adjust intake valves on cylinders No. 3
and No. 4, and exhaust valves on cylinders No. 2 and No. 4.

CHECKING HYDRAULIC VALVE LIFTERS
Except 1.5L
1) Remove valve cover. Push downward on end of rocker arm
above lash adjuster. If lash adjuster is normal, it will feel hard. If
lash adjuster moves downward easily when pushed, replace adjuster.
2) If lash adjuster feels soft or spongy, oil with air has
probably entered lash adjuster. If this occurs, check engine oil
level. If engine oil level is okay, check oil screen and oil screen
gasket for damage.
3) After repairing cause of air leak, warm engine to
operating temperature. Drive vehicle at low speed for approximately 5
minutes. Turn engine off for a few minutes.
4) Restart engine and drive at low speed for approximately 5
Page 138 of 1333
minutes. Repeat this step several times for about one hour. This helps
remove air from engine oil.
IGNITION TIMING
NOTE: Perform all adjustments with engine at normal operating
temperature, cooling fan and accessories off, transmission
in Park or Neutral, and front wheels in straight-ahead
position. Set curb idle speed to specification. See IDLE
SPEED SPECIFICATIONS table under IDLE SPEED & MIXTURE.
IGNITION TIMING
1) Locate ignition timing adjustment connector. See IGNITION
TIMING ADJUSTMENT CONNECTOR LOCATION table. Connect jumper wire
between ignition timing adjustment connector and ground. Check
ignition basic timing.
2) If ignition basic timing is not within specification,
loosen distributor (or crank angle sensor on engines with dual coil
assembly) and rotate to adjust timing if necessary. See IGNITION
TIMING SPECIFICATIONS table. Disconnect jumper wire from ignition
timing adjustment connector.

Engine pre-oiling can be done using pressure oiler (if
available). Connect pressure oiler to cylinder block oil passage
such as oil pressure sending unit. Operate pressure oiler long enough
to ensure correct amount of oil has filled crankcase. Check oil level
while pre-oiling.
If pressure oiler is not available, disconnect ignition
system. Remove oil pressure sending unit and replace with oil pressure
test gauge. Using starter motor, rotate engine starter until gauge
shows normal oil pressure for several seconds. DO NOT crank engine
for more than 30 seconds to avoid starter motor damage.
Ensure oil pressure has reached the most distant point from
the oil pump. Reinstall oil pressure sending unit. Reconnect ignition
system.
INITIAL START-UP
Start the engine and operate engine at low speed while
checking for coolant, fuel and oil leaks. Stop engine. Recheck coolant
and oil level. Adjust if necessary.
CAMSHAFT
Break-in procedure is required when a new or reground
camshaft has been installed. Operate and maintain engine speed between
1500-2500 RPM for approximately 30 minutes. Procedure may vary due to
manufacturers recommendations.
PISTON RINGS
Piston rings require a break-in procedure to ensure seating
of rings to cylinder walls. Serious damage may occur to rings if
correct procedures are not followed.
Extremely high piston ring temperatures are produced obtained
during break-in process. If rings are exposed to excessively high RPM
or high cylinder pressures, ring damage can occur. Follow piston ring
manufacturer's recommended break-in procedure.
FINAL ADJUSTMENTS
Check or adjust ignition timing and dwell (if applicable).
Adjust valves (if necessary). Adjust carburetion or injection idle
speed and mixture. Retighten cylinder heads (if required). If
cylinder head or block is aluminum, retighten bolts when engine is
cold. Follow the engine manufacturer's recommended break-in procedure
and maintenance schedule for new engines.
NOTE: Some manufacturer's require that head bolts be retightened
after specified amount of operation. This must be done to
prevent head gasket failure.
