right several times. Start engine, and turn steering wheel back and
forth to raise fluid temperature to approximately 122-140F (50-60C).
3) With engine idling, gradually close shutoff valve of
pressure gauge to increase hydraulic pressure. If idle speed does not
increase 200-250 RPM when fluid pressure reaches 213-284 psi (15-20
kg/cm
), replace power steering idle-up switch.
4) Gradually open shutoff valve. If engine speed does not
return to curb idle speed between 100-142 psi (7-10 kg/cm
), replace
power steering idle-up switch. Remove testing equipment. Bleed air
from system as in step 2).
IGNITION SYSTEM
NOTE: For basic ignition checks, see F - BASIC TESTING article in
ENGINE PERFORMANCE Section.
TIMING CONTROL SYSTEMS
Crank Angle Sensor
Crank angle sensor is located inside distributor on SOHC
engines and is attached to cylinder head on DOHC engines. If
malfunction occurs, Code 22 will set. For testing procedure, see
appropriate G - TESTS W/CODES article in the ENGINE PERFORMANCE
Section.
EMISSION SYSTEMS & SUB-SYSTEMS
EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION (EGR)
System Testing (Federal)
1) Disconnect Green-striped hose from throttle body, and
connect vacuum pump to hose end. Plug nipple where hose was connected
to throttle body. When engine is cold, 122
F (50C) or less, and at
idle, apply vacuum to disconnected hose. If idle does not change and
vacuum bleeds down, system is okay.
2) When engine is hot, 205
F (95C), and at idle, apply 1.8
in. Hg. If idle does not change and vacuum holds, system is okay.
Using a vacuum pump, apply 7.7 in. Hg. If idle becomes unstable or
engine stalls (and vacuum holds), system is okay.
System Testing (California)
1) Connect vacuum "T" fitting into Green-striped hose from
EGR valve, and connect vacuum gauge to vacuum tee. When engine coolant
temperature is 68
F (20C) or less and engine is idling, snap throttle
open to race engine. If no change in vacuum reading is detected on
gauge, system is okay.
2) When engine coolant temperature is 158
F (70C) or more
and engine is idling, snap throttle open to race engine. If vacuum
increases to 3.9 in. Hg or higher, system is okay.
3) Using vacuum pump, apply specified vacuum to open EGR
valve. See EGR VALVE SPECIFICATIONS table. If idle becomes unstable or
engine stalls, system is okay.
EGR Control Solenoid Valve (Pickup & Ram-50, California)
1) EGR control solenoid valve is located near left shock
tower. Label and disconnect vacuum hoses and wiring harness from
solenoid valve.
2) Connect hand vacuum pump to vacuum nipple where Green-
striped vacuum hose was connected. Apply vacuum and ensure vacuum does
not hold. Apply battery voltage to one terminal of solenoid, and
ground other. Ensure vacuum holds.

LUBRICATION
TRANSAXLE/TRANSMISSION SERVICE INTERVALS
Check fluid level every 12 months or 15,000 miles. Change
fluid and filter every 30,000 miles. If vehicle is operated under
severe condition, change fluid more often. If severe darkening of
fluid and strong odor are noted, bands should also be adjusted (if
equipped).
TRANSFER CASE SERVICE INTERVALS
On 4WD and AWD models, change transfer case fluid every 30,
000 miles.
CHECKING FLUID LEVEL
TRANSAXLE/TRANSMISSION
1) Park vehicle on level area. Ensure oil is at normal
operating temperature, parking brake is engaged, and engine is at
idle. Move gear selector through each position, stopping briefly in
each position.
2) Place gear selector in Neutral, and clean area around
dipstick tube. Ensure fluid level is between lower and upper marks,
but never over upper mark, in HOT range. Add or drain fluid if
necessary.

MITSUBISHI MONTERO 1991 User Guide axle backlash. If backlash is one inch or less, drive axle is not the
source of clunk noise.
Bearing Whine
Bearing whine is a high-pitched sound similar to a whistle.
It is usually c

axle backlash. If backlash is one inch or less, drive axle is not the
source of clunk noise.
Bearing Whine
Bearing whine is a high-pitched sound similar to a whistle.
It is usually caused by malfunctioning pinion bearings. Pinion
bearings operate at drive shaft speed. Roller wheel bearings may whine
in a similar manner if they run completely dry of lubricant. Bearing
noise will occur at all driving speeds. This distinguishes it from
gear whine, which usually comes and goes as speed changes.
Bearing Rumble
Bearing rumble sounds like marbles being tumbled. It is
usually caused by a malfunctioning wheel bearing. The lower pitch is
because the wheel bearing turns at only about 1/3 of drive shaft
speed.
Chatter On Turns
This is a condition where the entire front or rear of vehicle
vibrates when vehicle is moving. The vibration is plainly felt as well
as heard. Extra differential thrust washers installed during axle
repair can cause a condition of partial lock-up that creates this
chatter.
Axle Shaft Noise
Axle shaft noise is similar to gear noise and pinion bearing
whine. Axle shaft bearing noise will normally distinguish itself from
gear noise by occurring in all driving modes (Drive, cruise, coast and
float), and will persist with transmission in Neutral while vehicle is
moving at problem speed.
If vehicle displays this noise condition, remove suspect
axle shafts, replace wheel seals and install a new set of bearings.
Re-evaluate vehicle for noise before removing any internal components.
Vibration
Vibration is a high-frequency trembling, shaking or grinding
condition (felt or heard) that may be constant or variable in level
and can occur during the total operating speed range of the vehicle.
The types of vibrations that can be felt in the vehicle can
be divided into 3 main groups:
* Vibrations of various unbalanced rotating parts of the
vehicle.
* Resonance vibrations of the body and frame structures caused
by rotating of unbalanced parts.
* Tip-in moans of resonance vibrations from stressed engine or
exhaust system mounts or driveline flexing modes.
