cover at low pressure side of compressor. Connect Pressurizer
(KV994C1552) to can of R-12 refrigerant. Wrap a rag around compressor
shaft. Apply pressure of 28-71 psi (2-5 kg/cm
) at low pressure
(suction) service valve of compressor. Catch shaft seal seat in rag.

NOTE: Fixed Speed Adjusting Screw (SAS) is preset by manufacturer
and usually does not require adjustment. Only adjust fixed
SAS if other adjustment procedures require it, or if
manufacturer's original setting has been changed.
3.0L Montero, Pickup, Ram-50, Stealth & 3000GT
1) Loosen throttle cable. Loosen fixed SAS lock nut. See
Fig. 4. Turn fixed SAS counterclockwise until throttle valve is fully
closed. Turn fixed SAS clockwise until throttle valve begins to open.
Turn fixed SAS clockwise 1 1/4 turns after throttle valve begins to
open.
2) Tighten lock nut while holding fixed SAS in position.
Adjust throttle cable. Adjust basic idle speed. See BASIC IDLE SPEED
under IDLE SPEED & MIXTURE. Adjust throttle position sensor. See
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR (TPS).
All Other Models
To adjust fixed SAS, adjust basic idle speed. See BASIC IDLE
SPEED under IDLE SPEED & MIXTURE.

IDLE MIXTURE

Adjusting Screw (SAS) and throttle lever. See Fig. 4. Loosen TPS
mounting screws. Rotate TPS fully counterclockwise. Check for
continuity between Yellow/Red wire and Black wire terminals of TPS.
3) Rotate TPS clockwise until ohmmeter registers no
continuity. Tighten TPS mounting screws. Reconnect TPS electrical
connector.
4) Use a digital voltmeter to backprobe terminal No. 19
(Brown/Red wire) and terminal No. 24 (Brown wire) at Engine Control
Unit (ECU) wiring harness on SOHC vehicles, or terminal No. 64
(Brown/Red wire) and terminal No. 72 (Black wire) on DOHC vehicles.
Turn ignition on. DO NOT start engine. Check TPS output voltage.
5) If TPS output voltage is 0.4-1.0 volt, go to step 6). If
TPS output voltage is not 0.4-1.0 volt, check TPS and wiring harness
for damage or malfunction. Replace TPS or repair wiring harness if
necessary and go to step 6).
6) Remove feeler gauge. Turn ignition off. Disconnect
voltmeter from ECU connector. Operate engine at idle for about 5
minutes to ensure engine idles smoothly and within specification.
IDLE POSITION SWITCH
NOTE: Idle position switch is preset by manufacturer. Adjustment
is usually not necessary. If other procedures in this
article require adjustment of idle position switch or if
switch setting has been changed, adjust switch as follows.
1.6L Mirage, 2.0L Eclipse & 2.0L Galant (DOHC)
1) Loosen throttle cable. Disconnect electrical connector
from idle position switch. See Fig. 5. Loosen lock nut at base of
switch. Turn switch counterclockwise until throttle valve is fully
closed.
2) Connect ohmmeter between switch terminal and switch body
(ground). Turn idle position switch clockwise until ohmmeter registers\
continuity. At this point, throttle valve should begin to open.
3) Turn switch 15/16 of a turn beyond contact point. Tighten
lock nut at base of idle position switch, holding switch to prevent it
from turning while tightening.
4) Adjust throttle cable. Adjust basic idle speed. See BASIC
IDLE SPEED. Adjust TPS. See TPS ADJUSTMENT.
All Other Models
Idle position switch is incorporated in ISC motor and is
automatically adjusted when TPS is adjusted. See TPS ADJUSTMENT.

Mitsubishi Cruise Control Systems

DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
The cruise control system is electronically and vacuum
controlled. System components include a control unit, actuator, vacuum
pump, cruise control switch, clutch pedal switch, cruise indicator
light, diode, inhibitor switch (A/T), stoplight switch, vehicle speed
sensor and A/T control unit.
The system has self-diagnostic capability. When
self-diagnostic mode is activated, each switch and sensor is checked
for defects. When cruise control system has been cancelled without
using a normal cancel method, a code will be set and stored in control
unit. Codes can be retrieved to help determine which circuit is
malfunctioning.
PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
Before performing TROUBLE SHOOTING steps, inspect linkage
assembly, actuator, cables and vacuum hoses. Ensure linkage and cables
move smoothly. Ensure cables do not have excessive slack or tension.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
NOTE: For further trouble shooting information, see CHECK RESULTS
& SYMPTOM CHARTS. See Figs. 11-16.
SYSTEM CANCELS OR WILL NOT RESET AFTER CANCELLATION
1) Check trouble codes, see SELF-DIAGNOSTICS under DIAGNOSIS
& TESTING. If no trouble codes are stored, ensure cruise control can
be set.
2) If cruise control can be set, system may have cancelled
because of driving on steep hills or loose wiring connection. If
cruise control still cannot be set, perform SYSTEM INPUT TESTS under
DIAGNOSIS & TESTING.
3) On 1991 models, if SYSTEM INPUT TESTS check okay, check
actuator circuit. See TEST NO. 5 under CIRCUIT TESTS (1991). On 1992
models, if SYSTEM INPUT TESTS check okay, check vacuum pump circuit.
See TEST NO. 6 under CIRCUIT TESTS (1992). On all models, if SYSTEM
INPUT TESTS do not check okay, see INPUT CODE CHART. See Fig. 9 or 10.
ADJUSTMENTS
CRUISE CONTROL CABLE
1991
1) Ensure cruise control and accelerator cables are free of
bends and folds. Remove actuator cover. Loosen lock nuts and adjusting
nuts to free cables. Adjust accelerator cable "A" to correct
dimension. See Fig. 1 or 2.
2) Tighten lock nuts. Loosen adjustment bolts on intake air
plenum. Adjust plate so that inner cable free play is .04-.08" (1-2

If equipped, the EMR light (some models may use a reminder
flag) reminds vehicle operator that an emission system maintenance is
required. This indicator is activated after a predetermined
time/mileage.
When performing a smog check inspection, ensure EMR indicator
is not activated. On models using an EMR light, light should glow when
ignition switch is turned to ON position and should turn off when
engine is running.
If an EMR flag is present or an EMR light stays on with
engine running, fail vehicle and service or replace applicable
emission-related components. To reset an EMR indicator, refer to
appropriate MAINTENANCE REMINDER LIGHTS in the MAINTENANCE section.
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is used to alert
vehicle operator that the computerized engine control system has
detected a malfunction (when it stays on all the time with engine
running). On some models, the MIL may also be used to display trouble
codes.
As a bulb and system check, malfunction indicator light will
glow when ignition switch is turned to ON position and engine is not
running. When engine is started, light should go out.

evaporative carbon canister replaced (100,000 miles).
2) After servicing or replacing components, reset mileage
counter. On all models except 1987-95 Pickup and 1987-93 Ram-50, reset
switch is located on back of instrument cluster.
