REMOVAL AND DISASSEMBLY
When checking a malfunction, find the cause of the problem.
b0 If it is determined that removal and/or disassembly is neces-
sary, perform the work by following the procedures contained _
in this Workshop Manual.
;’ P
L
iiiiiii - I OOY555 If punch marks or mating marks are made to avoid error in
assembly and facilitate the assembly work, be sure to make
them in locations which wit! have no detrimental effect on -1
performance and/or appearances.
If an area having many parts, similar parts, and/or parts which
are symmetrical right and left is disassembled, be sure to
arrange the parts so that they do not become mixed during the
assembly process.
1. Arrange the parts removed in the proper order.
2. Determine which parts are to be reused and which are to
be replaced.
3. If bolts, nuts;etc., are to be replaced, be sure to use only
I 4 the exact sizespecified.
7 SPECIAL TOOLS
If other tools are substituted for the special tools to do service
or repair work, there is the danger that vehicle parts might be
damaged, or the mechanic might be injured; therefore, be
sure to use the special tool whenever doing any work for
which the use of one is specified.
PARTS TO BIZREPLACED
If any of the following parts are removed,
replaced with new parts.
1. Oil seals
2. Gaskets (except rocker cover gasket)
3. Packings
4. O-rings
5. Lock washers
6. Cotter pins
7. Self-locking nuts

PARTS
When replacing parts, use MITSUBISHI genuine parts.
VEHICLE WASHING
If high-pressure car-washing equipment or steam car-washing
equipment is used to wash the vehicle, be sure to maintain the
spray nozzle at a distance of at least 300 mm (11.8 in.) from
any plastic parts and all opening parts (doors, luggage
compartment, etc.).
nm (in.) so0059
WIRING HARNESSES
1. Secure the wiring harnesses by using clamps. However,
for any harness which passes to the engine or other
vibrating parts of the vehicle, allow some slack within a
range that does not allow the engine vibrations to cause
the harness to come into contact with anv of the
surrounding parts.
Then secure the harness by using a clamp.
In addition, if a mounting indication mark (yellow tape) is
on a harness, secure the indication mark in the specified
location.
2. If any section of a wiring harness contacts the edge of a
part, or a corner, wrap the section of the harness with tape
or something similar in order to protect it from damage.
F16171
ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS
1. When installing any of the vehicle parts, be careful not to
pinch or damage any of the wiring harnesses.
Caution
1. If a fuse is blown-out, be sure to eliminate the cause
of the problem before installing a new fuse.
2. Check the condition of fuse holders. If rust or dirt is
found, clean metal parts with a fine-grained sandpa-
per until proper metal-to-metal contact is made.
IOA 15A Poor contact of any fuse holder will often lead to
voltage drop or heating in the circuit and could

2. If additional optional equipment is to be installed in the
vehicle, follow the procedure listed in the appropriate
Nominal instruction manual; however, be sure to pay careful
size
attention to the following points:
(1) In order to avoid overloading the wiring, take the
0.3 mm* AWG 22 electrical current load of the optional equipment into
0.5 mm2 consideration, and determine the appropriate wire size.
0.85 mm’ ii% :: (2) Where possible, route the wiring through the existing
1.25 mm’ AWGIB

LUBRICANTS
In accordance with the instructions in this Service Manual,
apply the specified lubricants in the specified locations during
assembly and installation.
BRAKE FLUID
Be careful to avoid spilling any brake fluid on painted
surfaces, because the paint coat might be discoiored or _
damaged.
INTRODUCTION - Precautions Before Service 13
DOING SERVICE WORK IN GROUPS OF TWO OR
MORE TECHNICIANS
If the service work is to be done by two or more technicians
working together, extra caution must be taken.

INTRODUCTION - Towing and Hoisting
LIFTING-GROUND CLEARANCE
Towed vehicle should be raised until wheels are a minimum of
10 cm (4 in.) from the ground. Be sure there is adequate
ground clearance at the opposite end of the vehicle, especially
when towing over rough terrain or when crossing sharp rises
such as curbs. If necessary; ground clearance can be in-
creased by removing the wheels from the lifted end of the
disabled vehicle and carrying the lifted end closer to the
ground. A 20 cm (8 in.) ground clearance must be maintained
between brake drums and ground.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The following precautions should be taken when towing the
vehicle.
1. Remove exhaust tips and any other optional equipment,
that interface with the towing sling. Padding (heavy shop
towel or carpeting) should be placed between the towing
sling cross bar and any painted surfaces, and bumper
surfaces.
2. A safety chain system completely independent of the
primary lifting and towing attachment must be used.
3. Any loose or protruding parts of damaged vehicle such as
hoods, doors, fenders, trim, etc., should be secured prior
to moving the vehicle.
4. Operator should refrain from going under a vehicle unless
the vehicle is adequately supported by safety stands.
5. Never allow passengers to ride in a towed vehicle.
6. State and local rules and regulations must be followed
when towing a vehicle.

INTRODUCTlbN - T&wing and Hoisting 95
HOISTING
POST TYPE
Special care should be taken when raising the vehicle on a
frame contact type hoist. The hoist must be equipped with
the proper adapters in order to support the vehicle at the
proper locations. (Shown in the illustration)
Conventional hydraulic hoists may be used after determining
that the adapter plates will make firm contact with the side
frame.
FLOOR JACK
A regular floor jack may be used under the front crossmember
or rear axle housing.
Caution
1. A floor jack must never be used on any part of the
underbody.
2. Do not attempt to raise one entire side of the vehicle by
placing a jack midway between front and rear wheels.
This practice may result in permanent damage to the
body.
EMERGENCY JACKING
Jack receptacles are located at the No. 2 crossmember and
rear axle housing to accept the jack supplied with the vehicle
for emergency road service. Always block the opposite wheels
and jack only on a levd surface.
