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.

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

MIXTURE. Perform all adjustments with engine at normal
operating temperature, front wheels in straight-ahead
position, cooling fan and all accessories off, and
transmission in Park or Neutral.
Eclipse 2.0L Non-Turbo
1) TP sensor is not adjustable. Disconnect TP sensor
connector. Using external ohmmeter, measure resistance between TP
sensor terminals No. 1 and 3. See Fig. 8. If resistance is not 3500-
6500 ohms, replace TP sensor.
2) While slowly rotating throttle valve from idle to full
open, measure resistance between TP sensor terminals No. 2 and 3. If
resistance does not change smoothly in proportion to throttle opening,
replace TP sensor.
Montero
1) Disconnect TP sensor connector. Using jumper wires,
connect an external ohmmeter between TP sensor terminals No. 1 and 2.
See Fig. 9 . Insert .025" (.65 mm) feeler gauge between fixed speed
adjusting screw and throttle lever.
2) Loosen TP sensor mounting screws and rotate TP sensor
fully clockwise. Ensure there is continuity between terminals No. 1
and 2. Rotate TP sensor counterclockwise until there is no continuity,
and tighten screws. Install Test Harness (MB991348) between TP sensor
and harness connector.
3) Turn ignition on. Using external voltmeter, measure TP
sensor output voltage between terminals No. 1 and 3. If voltage is not
.4-1.0 volt, check harness and sensor. See DTC P0120 in G - TESTS
W/CODES article.
All Other Models
1) Disconnect TP sensor connector. Using jumper wires,
connect an external ohmmeter between TP sensor terminals No. 1 and 2
on Diamante or No. 3 and 4 on all other models. See Fig. 9. On
Diamante and Mirage 1.8L with cruise control, insert .055" (1.40mm)
feeler gauge between fixed speed adjusting screw and throttle lever.
On Galant, insert .025" (.65 mm) feeler gauge between fixed speed
adjusting screw and throttle lever. On all other models, insert .018"
(.45 mm) feeler gauge between fixed speed adjusting screw and throttle\
lever.
2) Loosen TP sensor mounting screws and rotate TP sensor
fully counterclockwise. Ensure there is continuity between terminals
No. 1 and 2 on Diamante, or No. 3 and 4 on all other models. Rotate TP
sensor clockwise until there is no continuity and tighten screws.
Install Test Harness (MB991348) between TP sensor and harness
connector.
3) Turn ignition on. Using external voltmeter, measure TP
sensor output voltage between terminals No. 1 and 3 on Diamante, or
No. 2 and 4 on all other models. If voltage is not .4-1.0 volt, check
harness and sensor. See DTC P0120 in G - TESTS W/CODES article.

DIFFERENTIAL LOCK - REAR
1998 Mitsubishi Montero
1997-98 DRIVE AXLES
Mitsubishi Rear Differential Lock
Montero, Montero Sport
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
The rear differential lock system is designed to be used only
when low-speed wheel spin occurs in a ditch, or on a slippery or
uneven surface. The indicator light will blink when switch is turned
on as system completes locking operation. After the differential is
locked, the light will stop blinking and remain on.
The rear differential lock system will not lock with vehicle
in 4H or 2H position, and if vehicle speed is greater than 7 MPH.
Vehicle speed should be maintained at less than 12 MPH during rear
differential lock operation.
NOTE: The Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) does not operate when the
rear differential is locked. It is normal for the ABS
warning light to be on at this time.
COMPONENT LOCATIONS
Rear Differential Lock Air Pump
Air pump is located under left side of rear seat.
Rear Differential Lock Control Unit
Control unit is located under left side lower quarter trim
panel in rear compartment.
Rear Differential Lock Switch
Lock switch is located on lower center of instrument panel,
below radio.
Rear Differential Lock Detection Switch
Lock detection switch is located on rear differential
carrier.
TROUBLE SHOOTING
INDICATOR LIGHT FLASHES WHEN LOCK SWITCH IS TURNED ON
If vehicle speed is greater than 7 MPH, reduce speed to less
than 3 MPH. If vehicle speed is less than 7 MPH, rotate steering wheel
to right and left to reset light.
INDICATOR LIGHT FLASHES WHEN LOCK SWITCH IS TURNED OFF
If indicator flashes after lock switch is turned off, depress
and release accelerator several times while driving straight ahead to
reset light.
