A Galant has timing belts, normally the belts break if they have not been serviced. As for as jumping time they belt may stretch causing it to run bad or not to run at all. Pull the cover off of the timing belt and check the timing using the timing marks. If they are off your car is out of time.
If dome lights and sunroof of a Mitsubishi Galant are not working, it is probably due to blown fuse. It is time to replace old ones.
The standard time for a 1998 Mitsubishi Galant from 0-60 mph is 9.0 seconds, so it will take 16.7 seconds to travel 1/4 of a mile. Hope this info is useful.
You will know once you have jumped time when people are older and appearences are different than they appear.
remove intake manifoled to access back 3 plugs. time consuming but can be done
The overdrive will not engage on a 97 Mitsubishi Gallant if the switch has been turned off or the transmission is defective. Often time the bands will become worn and prevent it from shifting into certain gears.
To set the clock on a Mitsubishi Galant, first, turn on the ignition or the accessory mode. Locate the clock adjustment buttons on the dashboard or the infotainment system; these are typically labeled as "H" for hours and "M" for minutes. Press and hold the appropriate button until the time starts blinking, then use the buttons to adjust the time. Once the correct time is set, press the button again to save the changes.
depends on whether you are replacing rear brakes or not. The explanation is long, recommend you purchase a service book ($18.95)at advance or auto zone. Follow procedure and you will be done in know time.
You cannot turn off the Daytime running lights on a Mitsubishi Galant without cutting the wire. This is because the car is set up to have these lights on at all times during operation.
If the timing chain or belt jumped time one tooth or notch it would lose most of it's power. If it jumped two teeth or notches it wouldn't have the power to move at all.
the last time i checked on this ,the speed alarm is built into the computer with speed sensor from tranny. your dealer can turn it off thru his computer ,but you cannot remove it.
My car is a 1997 Mitsubishi Galant, and when it was idle it used to do the same thing, I was told it might be time to change the TPS Sensor (Throttle Position Sensor). I still need to change it, but what I figured out, is that when you let the car fully warm up, when the needle is as close to the middle as possible, it won't shake and turn off.
it does that because it has either jumped time or ....jumped time ! :) :)
