2014 MITSUBISHI L200 fuel type

4.After the engine coolant temperature has drop-
ped to the normal temperature, stop the engine.
5. Check the coolant level in the reserve tank.
WARNINGl If there is none, make sure that the en-
gine has cooled down before removing
the radiator cap, because hot steam or boil-
ing water otherwise will gush from the fill-
er port and may scald you.6. Add coolant to the radiator and/or reserve
tank if necessary (refer to the “Maintenance”
section.)CAUTIONl Do not add coolant while the engine is
hot. Suddenly adding cold coolant could
damage the engine. Wait for the engine to
cool down, then add coolant a little at a
time.
7. Examine the radiator hoses for coolant leak-
age and the drive belt for looseness or damage.
If there is anything wrong with the cooling
system or drive belt, we recommend you to
have it checked and repaired.
Bleeding the fuel system E00800700312
The fuel system should be bled to remove air as de-
scribed below if the fuel supply is exhausted during
travel.
Type 1 1.Loosen the air plug (A) at the top of the fuel
filter.
For emergencies

2.Pump the hand pump (B) until there are no
more bubbles in the fuel coming out of the
air plug (A). When doing this, place a cloth
around the air plug (A) to prevent the escap-
ing fuel from spraying out.
3. Tighten the air plug (A) when there are no
more bubbles in the fuel.
4. Continue pumping until the hand pump (B)
becomes stiff.
5. Finally, check to be sure that there is no leak- age of fuel.
If in doubt, we recommend you to consult a
specialist for necessary information.
Type 2, 3
Pump the hand pump (A) at the top of the fuel fil-
ter until the hand pump becomes stiff.
Then try again to start the engine.
If the engine does not start, repeat the process above.Type 2Type 3
CAUTIONl Do not smoke or have any other open
flame near the vehicle while bleeding the
fuel system.
l Be sure to carefully clean away any spilt
fuel which could ignite and cause a fire.Removal of water from the fuel
filterE00800800342
If the fuel filter indication lamp in the instrument
panel illuminates during driving, it indicates that wa-
ter has accumulated in the fuel filter. If this occurs,
remove the water as described below.
Type 1, 2 1. Loosen the drain plug (A) of the fuel filter.

2.Operate the hand pump (B) slowly 6 or 7
times in order to force the water out through
the drain plug (A).
3. Tighten the drain plug (A) when water no lon-
ger comes out.
4. Bleed the air in the fuel system. (Refer to “Bleeding the fuel system” on page
6-05.)
5. Check to be sure that the fuel filter indication lamp illuminates when the ignition switch is
turned to “ON”, and that it goes off when the
engine is started. If in doubt, we recommend
you to consult a specialist for necessary infor-
mation.
CAUTIONl Do not smoke or have any other open
flame near the vehicle while bleeding the
fuel system.
l Be sure to carefully clean away any water
drained out because any fuel mixed with
the water could ignite and cause a fire.Type 3
Take your vehicle to a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point to remove the water from
the fuel filter.

7.If the oil level is below the specified limit, re-
move the cap located on the cylinder head
cover and add enough oil to raise the level to
within the specified range. Do not overfill to
avoid engine damage. Be sure to use the speci-
fied engine oil and do not mix various types
of oil.
8. After adding oil, close the cap securely.
9. Confirm the oil level by repeating step 4 to 6.

Use only the recommended oils with an ACEA or
API classification as specified in this manual.
NOTE l Check or refill the oil according to the follow-
ing manner. •When the oil level is checked in step 6
above, check it on a low side of the dip-
stick because it is different in appearance
of oil level in the two sides of the dipstick.
• On vehicles without diesel particulate fil-
ter (DPF), the oil level should be within
the range (A) to (B) on the dipstick.
• On vehicles with DPF, the oil level
should be within the range (A) to (C) (oil
replacement indication mark) on the dip-
stick.
If the oil level is beyond the oil replace-
ment indication mark (C), replace the oil
as soon as possible.
Then, the oil should be refilled to the max-
imum level (B).• On vehicles with DPF, the engine oil will
increase due to a little fuel getting mixed
in the engine oil when the DPF regener-
ates to burn away the PM (particulate mat-
ter). However, it does not indicate a mal-
function.
l The engine oil will deteriorate rapidly if the
vehicle is subjected to severe conditions, re-
quiring earlier oil replacement. Please refer
to the maintenance schedule.
l For handling of used engine oils, refer to
page 05.
Selection of engine oil
Vehicles without diesel particulate filter (DPF)
l Select engine oil of the proper SAE viscosity
number according to the atmospheric temper-
ature.
l Use engine oil conforming to the following
classification: • ACEA classification:“For service A1/ B1, A3/B3, A3/B4,
A5/B5”
• API classification: “For service CF-4”
NOTE l Use of additives is not recommended since
they may reduce the effectiveness of addi-
tives already included in the engine oil. It
may result in failure of the mechanical assem-
bly.
Vehicles with diesel particulate filter (DPF)
l Select engine oil of the proper SAE viscosity
number according to the atmospheric temper-
ature.
l Use engine oil conforming to the following
classification: • ACEA classification:“For service C1, C2, C3 or C4”
• JASO classification: “For service DL-1”
If those classifications are not available, con-
tact a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Authorized
Service Point.
