ASSEMBLY
(1) Liberally coat engine oil on the circumference of the
piston, piston ring, and oil ring.
d
(2) Arrange the piston ring and oil ring gaps (side rail and
spacer) as shown in the illustration.
(3) Rotate crankshaft so that crank pin is on center of
cylinder bore.
(4) Use suitable thread protectors on connecting rod bolts
before inserting piston and connecting rod assembly
into cylinder block. Care must be taken not to nick crank
pin.(5) Using a suitable piston ring compressor tool, install
piston and connecting rod assembly into cylinder block.
Caution
Insert the pistons so that the front marks (arrows)on the piston tops point toward the front of the
engine (timing belt side).
2. INSTALLATION OF CONNECTING ROD CAP
(1) Install the connecting rod, aligning it with the mark
made or the connecting rod cap during disassembly.
When the connecting rod being installed is new and has
no alignment mark, install it so that the notches in the
connecting rod and cap are on the same side, as
illustrated.
‘d(2) Check the connecting rod big end thrust clearance.
Standard value: 0.10
- 0.25 mm (.0039 -‘.0098 in.)
Limit: 0.4 mm

PLASTIGAGE METHODMllUlAA
Plastigage may be used to measure the clearance.
(1) Remove oil and grease and any other dirt from bearings and
journals.(2) Cut plastigage to the same length as the width of the
bearing and place it in parallel with the journal, off oil holes.
(3) Install the crankshaft, bearings and caps and tighten them
to the specified torques. During this operation, do NOT turn
the crankshaft. Remove the caps. Measure the width-of the
plastigage at the widest part by using a scale printed on the
plastigage sleeve.
If the clearance exceeds the repair limit, the bearing should
be replaced.
Should the standard clearance not be obtained even after
bearing replacement, replace the crankshaft.

OPERATIONl
The crank angle sensor senses the crank angle (piston position) of each cylinder, converts it into a pulse
signal and inputs it to the engine control unit, which then computes the engine speed and controls the fuelinjection timing and ignition timing based on the input signal.
lPower to the crank angle sensor is supplied from the control relay and is grounded to the body. The crank
angle sensor generates a pulse signal as it repeatedly connects and disconnects between 5 V voltagesupplied from the engine control unit and ground.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTSHint 1: If unexpected shocks are felt during driving or the engine stalls suddenly during idling, shake the
crank angle sensor harness. If this causes the engine to stall, poor contact of the sensor connector is
suspected.Hint 2: If the crank angle sensor outputs a pulse signal when the ignition switch is turned ON (with the
engine not running), a faulty crank angle sensor or engine control unit is suspected.
Hint 3:
If the tachometer reads 0 rpm when the engine that has failed to start is cranked, faulty crank angleHint 4:sensor or broken timing belt is suspected.
If the tachometer reads 0 rpm when the engine that has failed to start is cranked, the primary current
of the ignition coil is not turned on and off. Therefore, troubles in the ignition circuit and ignition coil orfaulty power transistor is suspected.
Hint 5: If the engine can be run at idle even though the crank angle sensor reading is out of specification,troubles are often in other than the crank angle sensor.
[Examples](1) Faulty engine coolant temperature sensor
(2) Faulty idle speed control servo
(3) Poorly adjusted reference 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!(I)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 theSRS or any SRS-related component.
