HAR-I
NESS CHECKl The connector symbol shown is as viewed from the
Iterminal end of the connector inside the vehicle.
ij~0“SV” used as the standard value in voltage check stands for
system voltage.
lWhen checking a waterproof connector for circuit continui-ty, be sure to use the special tool, Test Harness.
Never insert the test probe from the harness side as this
causes loss of waterproof characteristics and corrosion
may result.
There are various test harnesses and the appropriate onefor the connector being tested should be used.
lIf the appropriate test harness for the particular connector is
not available, the use of the Test Harness Set (MB991348)
which can be connected directly between the terminals is
recommended.l When checking the terminal voltage with the connector
disconnected, do not insert the test probe if the check
terminal is female.
dIf the test probe is forced into the terminal, poor contact
may be caused.
l When checking an open circuit of a wire with its ends
physically separated, ground one end using a jumper wireand check the continuity between the other end and
ground. Repair the wire if there is no continuity.
lWhen checking short-circuit to ground of a wire, open one
end of the wire and check continuity between the other end
and ground. If there is continuity, the wire is short-circuitedto ground and requires repair.
l
For checking continuity, use an analog ohmmeter (or circuittester) as a rule.

13-32FUEL SYSTEM - Service Adjustment Procedures
@ Using a jumper wire, ground the self-diagnosis/data
transmission selector terminal (terminal
@) of theI
diagnosis connector (white).
dSelf-diagnosis/
ydata transmission
(4) Remove the waterproof female connector from the ignition
timing adjusting connector (brawn).(5) Using a jumper wire, ground the ignition timing adjusting
terminal.(6) Start the engine and run at idle.
(7) Check the basic idle speed.
When using the multi-use tester, select item No. 38 and
read the idle speed.
Basic idle
speeci: 700 + 50 rpm
NOTE(I) The engine speed may be low by 20 to 100 rpm while
the vehicle is new [distance driven approx. 500 km (300miles) or less], but no adjustment is necessary.
(2) If the engine stalls or speed is low despite a sufficient
distance driven [approx. 500 km (300 miles) or more], it
is probably due to deposits on the throttle valve. In thiscase, clean the throttle valve. (Refer to
P.13-33.)(8) If the basic idle speed is out of specification, adjust by
turning the speed adjusting screw (SAS).
NOTE
If the idle speed is higher than the standard value even with
SAS fully tightened, check to see if there is evidence of theidle switch (fixed SAS) being moved. If the idle switch
seems to have been moved, adjust it. If it does not seem tohave been moved, there may be a leak caused by
deteriorated fast idle air valve (FIAV). In such a case, replacethe throttle body.
(9) Turn the ignition switch OFF.
(lO)When the multi-use tester has not been used, remove thejumper wire from the self-diagnosis/data transmission
selector terminal.
(11)Remove the jumper wire from. the ignition timing adjustingterminal and replace the connector back again.
(12)Start the engine again and run at idle for
10 minutes to
make sure that the engine runs at proper idle speed.

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 (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) 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 the
SRS or any SRS-related component.
