coolant is 176-203F (80-95C). Turn engine off. Insert a paper clip
in engine speed detection connector. See Fig. 3. Connect a tachometer
to paper clip.

3) Install a timing light. Start engine and allow it to idle.
Using tachometer, read curb idle (RPM). Multiply RPM reading by 3 to
obtain actual curb idle speed. Ensure curb idle speed is 600-700 RPM.
Turn engine off. Curb idle speed is automatically controlled by Idle
Air Control (IAC) system. If curb idle speed is not as specified, see
DTC P0505 in G - TESTS W/CODES article.
4) Disconnect waterproof female connector from Brown ignition
timing check connector. See Fig. 4. Using a jumper wire, ground
ignition timing check terminal to read basic ignition timing. Using
timing light, read basic ignition timing value. See
IGNITION TIMING SPECIFICATIONS table. If basic ignition timing is
within specification, go to next step. If basic ignition timing is not
within specification, see DTC P0335 in G - TESTS W/CODES article.
5) Remove jumper wire to read actual ignition timing. Using
timing light, read actual ignition timing value. If actual ignition
timing is not within specification, see DTC P0335 in G - TESTS W/CODES
article.

is 600-700 RPM. Turn engine off. Curb idle speed is automatically
controlled by Idle Air Control (IAC) system. If curb idle speed is not\
as specified, see DTC P0505 in G - TESTS W/CODES article.
4) Disconnect waterproof female connector from Brown ignition
timing check connector. See Fig. 4. Using a jumper wire, ground
ignition timing check terminal to read basic ignition timing. Using
timing light, read basic ignition timing value. See
IGNITION TIMING SPECIFICATIONS table. If basic ignition timing is
within specification, go to next step. If basic ignition timing is not
within specification, see DTC P0335 in G - TESTS W/CODES article.
5) Remove jumper wire to read actual ignition timing. Using
timing light, read actual ignition timing value. If actual ignition
timing is not within specification, see DTC P0335 in G - TESTS W/CODES
article.
All Other Models
1) Ignition timing is controlled by Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) and is not adjustable. Manufacturer provides procedure for
checking timing. On models with distributor, DO NOT attempt to adjust
ignition timing by rotating distributor.
2) Connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC). DLC is
located below dash, near steering column. See Fig. 2. Install a timing
light. Start engine and allow it to idle.
3) Using scan tool, read curb idle speed (RPM). Ensure curb
idle speed is about 750 RPM. Turn engine off. Curb idle speed is
automatically controlled by Idle Air Control (IAC) system. If curb
idle speed is not as specified, see DTC P0505 in G - TESTS W/CODES
article.
CAUTION: MFI system actuator test must be cancelled or test will
continue to run for 27 minutes. Driving vehicle under this
condition may damage engine.
4) Using scan tool, select MFI SYSTEM ACTUATOR TEST, then
select item 17 (BASIC IGNITION TIMING). Read basic ignition timing
value. See IGNITION TIMING SPECIFICATIONS table. If basic ignition
timing is within specification, go to next step. If basic ignition
timing is not within specification, cancel MFI system actuator test.
See DTCS P0100 (except Mirage 1.5L), P0105, P0115 and P0335 in G -
TESTS W/CODES article.
5) Read actual ignition timing value. If actual ignition
timing is not within specification, cancel MFI system actuator test.
See DTCS P0100 (except Mirage 1.5L), P0105, P0115 and P0335 in G -
TESTS W/CODES article.
IDLE SPEED & MIXTURE
* PLEASE READ THIS FIRST *
NOTE: Perform adjustments with engine at normal operating
temperature, cooling fan and accessories off, transmission
in Park or Neutral, and front wheels in straight-ahead
position.
BASIC IDLE SPEED
NOTE: Basic idle speed adjustment information on Eclipse 2.0L
non-turbo engine is not available from manufacturer at time
of publication.
3000GT
1) Ensure vehicle is at normal operating temperature with all

lights, cooling fan and accessories off. Shift transmission into
Neutral or Park position.
2) If not using scan tool, go to next step. Connect scan tool
to Data Link Connector (DLC). DLC is located below dash, near steering\
column. See Fig. 2. Go to step 5).
3) On DOHC models, insert a paper clip in engine speed
detection connector. See Fig. 3. On SOHC models, insert paper clip in
noise filter connector. See Fig. 5. On all models, connect a
tachometer to paper clip.
4) Connect a jumper wire between ground and Data Link
Connector (DLC) terminal No. 1. See Fig. 2. Disconnect waterproof
female connector from Brown ignition timing check connector. See
Fig. 4 . Using a jumper wire, ground ignition timing check terminal.
5) Start engine and allow it to idle. Check basic idle speed.
See IDLE SPEED SPECIFICATIONS table. On DOHC models, multiply
tachometer reading by 3 to obtain actual basic idle speed. If idle
speed is not within specification, turn engine speed adjusting screw
until correct engine speed is obtained. See Fig. 6. Access to speed
adjusting screw is obtained by removing rubber plug on throttle body.
6) If idle speed cannot be lowered by turning engine speed
adjusting screw, determine if Throttle Position (TP) sensor has been
moved. Adjust TP sensor if necessary. See TP SENSOR ADJUSTMENT under
THROTTLE POSITION (TP) SENSOR. If TP sensor is okay, replace throttle
body.

allowing metal objects to contact the battery posts and the
vehicle at the same time.
CAUTION: Never disconnect the battery while the engine is running;
doing so could damage the car's electrical components.
REPLACING BLOWN FUSES
Before replacing a blown fuse, remove ignition key, turn off
all lights and accessories to avoid damaging the electrical system. Be
sure to use fuse with the correct indicated amperage rating. The use
of an incorrect amperage rating fuse may result in a dangerous
electrical system overload.
BRAKE PAD WEAR INDICATOR
Indicator will cause a squealing or scraping noise, warning
that brake pads need replacement.
BRAKE FLUID
WARNING: DO NOT use reclaimed fluid or fluid that has been stored
in old or open containers. It is essential that foreign
particles and other liquids are kept out of the brake fluid
reservoir.
CATALYTIC CONVERTER
Continued operation of vehicle with a severe malfunction
could cause converter to overheat, resulting in possible damage to
converter and vehicle.
ENGINE COOLANT SERVICE
WARNING: To avoid the danger of being scalded never change the coolant
when the engine is hot.
WARNING: Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot Serious
burns could be caused by high pressure fluid escaping from
the radiator.
CAUTION: When adding or replacing engine coolant, use a high quality
ethylene glycol antifreeze diluted with 50% distilled water.
When putting the cap on the reserve tank, line up the arrow
on the cap and the arrow on the tank, or coolant can leak out
ENGINE DRIVE BELT SERVICE
WARNING: Be sure the ignition key is OFF. The engine could rotate
unexpectedly.
ENGINE OIL
WARNING: The engine oil may be high enough to burn your fingers
when the drain plug is loosened. Wait until the drain plug
is cool enough to touch with you bare hands.
WARNING: Continuous contact with used engine oil has been found to
cause skin cancer in laboratory animals. Brief contact with
used engine oil may irritate skin. To minimize your exposure
to used oil, wear a long sleeve shirt and moisture-proof
gloves when changing oil. If oil contacts your skin, wash

SUN ROOF - POWER
1998 Mitsubishi Montero
1998 ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT
Mitsubishi - Power Sun Roofs
Eclipse, Galant, Montero, Montero Sport, 3000GT
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
Sun roof is actuated by an overhead console-mounted switch.
Sun roof motor, located near switch, moves sun roof panel by means of
drive cables. If necessary, sun roof can be closed manually using
manual closure wrench stored in vehicle's tool pouch.
On vehicles equipped with Electronic Timer Alarm Control
System (ETACS) ECU, sun roof can be operated up to 30 seconds after
ignition switch is turned to OFF position.
Sun roof motor incorporates a safety feature that initially
limits opening or closing of roof glass panel. Sun roof will not fully
close from fully open position without first releasing and then
depressing slide switch during operation. Sun roof initially stops
about 8" short of fully closed position.

LUBRICATION
NOTE: Only Lubrication procedures during reassembly of sliding
roof assembly components are available from manufacturer at
time of publication.
ADJUSTMENTS
SUN ROOF FIT
1) Fully close sun roof. Fully open sun shade. Remove side
covers from underneath sun roof. Loosen 6 sun roof glass mounting nuts
and adjust glass forward, backward or sideways, if necessary.
2) If adjustment cannot be made by loosening mounting nuts,
check if sun roof glass or motor is in fully closed position. Readjust
as necessary.
