\









\









\









\









\









\


Condition Code Procedure
Internal component failure
(any component) ........ A ........... (1) Require repair or
replacement of the long
block assembly.
( 1) - It is Required that all other failure related components
be inspected for cause and condition. Additional components
or assemblies may be Suggested for repair or replacement
such as a water pump on a short block (reason code 4,
technician's recommendation based on substantial and
informed experience).
Example:
If there is a failed head gasket with an external coolant
leak, in addition to Requiring replacement of the head
gasket, inspection of the following for cause and
condition is Required: Block, Cooling System, Cylinder
Head. It may be Suggested that additional inspections be
performed, such as the other head gasket on a V-type
engine.

SHORT BLOCK ASSEMBLIES
NOTE: A Short Block Assembly is a cylinder block and all those
components contained within the limits of the block deck
or decks, the pan rail, the block rear face and the
timing cover (where fitted), including the crankshaft.

EXHAUST AND TAIL PIPES
NOTE: For pipes with resonators, also see MUFFLERS AND RESONATORS.
EXHAUST AND TAIL PIPE INSPECTION

Installation
1) To install, reverse removal procedure. Injectors may be
removed after fuel rail is removed from intake manifold. Use new
insulators and "O" rings when installing injectors.
2) Use spindle oil or gasoline on "O" ring. Install injectors
into fuel rail with a twisting motion. Adjust throttle and kickdown
cable (if applicable). Do not drop injectors while removing or
installing fuel rail.
OXYGEN (O2) SENSOR
Removal & Installation
1) O2 Sensor is mounted in exhaust pipe below exhaust header.
It is equipped with a permanent pigtail which must be protected from
damage when sensor is removed. Ensure sensor is free of contaminants,
avoid using cleaning solvents of any type. Sensor may be difficult to
remove when engine temperature is less than 120
F (48 C).
2) Always use anti-seize compound on threads before
installation. On non-turbo models, remove sensor using Remover
(MD998703). On turbo models, use Remover (MD998748) on Eclipse and
Galant, or Remover (MD998770) on Stealth and 3000GT. Tighten oxygen
sensor to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS table.
THROTTLE BODY
Removal
Disconnect air intake hose. Remove accelerator and automatic
speed control cables (if equipped). Disconnect fuel vapor hose,
electrical harness connector, vacuum hose and coolant hoses. Remove
throttle body retaining bolts.
Disassembly
Remove throttle position sensor. Remove idle speed control
motor. Remove throttle bracket and connector bracket (if equipped).
Remove idle position switch and adjusting nut.
NOTE: DO NOT remove throttle valve. DO NOT use cleaning solvents
on throttle position sensor, idle speed control motor or
idle position switch.
Cleaning
Clean all parts except those noted in solvent. Check vacuum
port and passage for clogging. Clean vacuum, vapor and fuel passages
with compressed air.
Reassembly
To reassemble, reverse disassembly procedure.
Installation
To install, reverse removal procedure.
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR/SWITCH
Removal & Installation
Throttle position sensor/switch is located on throttle body.
Disconnect TPS electrical connector. Remove bolts holding TPS and
remove TPS. To install, reverse removal procedure. Tighten throttle
position sensor/switch to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS
table. For adjustment procedure, see ON-VEHICLE ADJUSTMENTS article.
