How do you you remove the front hub on a 1993 3000 GT?
You really need a manual for this one. The procedure differs for two wheel vs 4whl drive. Go to www.Team3s site there is a wealth of knowledge there. Bob Forest ang Eric Gross provide almost all of the info and you can get a comprehensive manual on CD there. you will need to take the whole assembly apart and then use a puller assuming you are wanting to replace the bearing. The hub may be able to be removed from the knuckle without removing everything else if you are good as it is pressed on. If you are trying to replacce a broken Stud you can do that without removing the hub but you need to do a little grinding on the knuckle to get the necessary clearance. In either case I suggest going to Team3s and joining the discussion forum where you can post this question and interact through emails with the members. Hope this helps Ray
Do you have to lift the engine in order to replace the freeze plugs in a 95 3000gt?
The transmission must be removed to access the two freeze plugs on that side. It is easier to remove the engine, but techinically, no, you do not _HAVE_ to.
My Mitsubishi 3000gt oil pressure gauge is not working?
I ran into the same problem after re-building the engine. The pressure at idle started to stay toward the low side instead of the regular middle position. Not wanting to take a chance destroying a new engine I could not ignore the low reading and just assume everything was nominal. So you'll want to replace the oil-pressure sending unit. It is a sensor that is threaded into the block on the right-side of the engine (i.e. driver-side next to the firewall. PROBLEM: Before installing the new sending unit, I came across some other owners that said a new sending unit will never read like the original. Sure enough, even with the new sending unit, the guage will fluctuate but usually reads low. The only way to really get an accurate reading of the pressure would be to intall a mechanical guage instead of the electric sending-unit/guage method. That being said, I have not had any problems with the "low" level. You would probably be ok replacing the sending unit (about $100 or so) and not risk the chance that there really IS insufficient oil pressure. If it still reads low after replacing just make sure it moves up a little when you start the car, and moves up considerably more when the throttle is applied. Hope this information helps somebody, Love your choice of vehicle!
*** EDIT ***
Or.... lol, you could just take a look and make sure your plug is plugged into the sending unit! take off the driver wheel, and the plastic cover behind the wheel. You will see the sending unit & pressure sensor. I believe it will have a green plastic clip, make sure it's plugged in.
its your tranny, you probably damaged the teeth on 1st gear or your syncros went out, if all gears are not going in then its your clutch
What cylinder is number one on a 3.0 L Mitsubishi 3000 gt?
Cylinder #1 is at the front of the engine on the right bank(front). Front of car ------------- #1 #3 #5 ------------- #2 #4 #6
How do you remove a steering wheel from a 1994 Mitsubishi 3000 gt?
To remove the steering wheel start by disconnecting the negative battery terminal to prevent accidental airbag deployment. Then remove the screws on the backside of the steering wheel to remove the airbag. Disconnect the airbag wiring connectors. Remove the steering column shaft nut and remove the steering wheel with a puller. Do not yank, hammer, pry the steering wheel off as this could result in steering shaft damage.
What does it mean when the suspension light sport flashes on and off on a mitsuibishi 3000gt?
Controling the struts electronically is only possible when using the factory ECS struts manufactured by KYB.
When operating properly the ECS module performs as listed below
Sport mode - suspension is set at Hard.
The damping force can be checked by simply bouncing the mounting points
in both modes and checking that the damping force is harder in the Sport state.
Tour mode - activates the following
Anti-Roll: If the steering wheel is rotated 90 degrees within 0.3 seconds then the suspension is set at Medium. If this change occurs within 0.2 seconds then it is set at Hard.
Anti-Dive: When the speed of the car drops quickly during braking the suspension sets itself to Hard.
Anti-Squat: The suspension will harden at low speeds when accelerating quickly. During hard acceleration at 30km/h the suspension is set at Hard, at 60km/h it is set at Medium, at 90km/h it is set at Soft. At all speeds suspension will change to Medium after a second of acceleration.
High Speed Sensitive: When accelerating the suspension will change from Soft to Medium at 130km/h and will revert back to soft when the speed drops below 120km/h.
Pitch and Bounce: If the vehicle's body bounces up and down by approx 5cm within a second then the suspension is set at Hard until this motion ceases.
i think it is the engine coolant level
it's windshield washer level, if on just add water.
How much horsepower does a 1994 Mitsubishi 3000gt non turbo engine have?
It comes stock with a 222 horsepower. Most people believe it had the same engine as all of the dodge stealth's produced but they are wrong. The dodge stealth had 160 horsepower SOHC in their base model and the 3000GT had a 222 horsepower DOHC in their base model. However, in 1997 they started to make SOHC 3000GT's and then they had the same horspower base models.
I had a problem very similar to this on my '94 SL. I finally tracked it down to the electrical plug that comes out of the fuel pump/sending unit assembly that fits down into the gas tank.
Unfortunately, you can't just buy the electrical pigtail and re-wire it. You have to buy the entire assembly (fuel pump, sending unit, metal bracket, pigtail, etc.).
When I replaced this entire assembly - I never had the problem again. Of course the cost was in excess of $500 or so.
I suppose I could have re-wired a new circuit to the fuel pump, but I didn't really want to start cutting up the exisiting factory wiring harness.

How do you change a valve seal on a 1994 3000GT?
It is very difficult and time consuming for a back yard mechanic. I have done it before and I didn't think I would ever finish. I'll put it this way, if you're going to try this yourself you'll need every tool that you've got and then some. 2 head gaskets, head studs, valve seals, timing belt along with tentionors and all pulleys associated with the timing and you'll probably want to get some 3rd gen lash adjusters will get you started. You'll need timing tools and also a tool that is used to compressed the valve springs to get the keepers out. You can do a search on all of this. It's very extensive you can't do this on a weekend.
You have1992 Mitsubishi 3000 gt starts good but cut off when put into gear?
I had a similar problem with my 1994 3000GT. When I would shift into reverse, it would stall. As is turned out, the radiator was partially clogged, cutting off flow for the oil cooler. After replacing the radiator, I have had no problems with this.
Ok wow 3000gt don't have an oil cooler the vr4's do... A radiator has nothing to do with why the tranny kills the car when you put it in gear.... You my friend were robbed by your mechanic.... It's probably the idle air control on the throttle body.... It could need a rebuild of the clutch with a full kit.... I recommend finishing the flywheel as well. Hope its not the tranny sychros that means new or re built tranny .... Good luck think simple first....
How do you take out interior speakers 1994 3000gt?
If you are talking about the front speakers, then start by removing the door panels. There are two screws on the rear edge of the door panel. There is a screw behind door handle and one in the vent of the door. Two screws on the front edge of the door panel and four screws (three of which are hidden behind the carpet) on the lower portion of the panel. Lift panel up off the door. There are two electrical plugs (door light and power window/door locks) that you have to unplug.
Set door panel aside. Four screws for the speakers. If aftermarket speakers are being used, then you need to drill four new holes for the screws to hold new speaker in. Also, you will have to cut the speaker plug and rewire with connectors to adapt to new speakers.
Re attach door panel in reverse as you removed.
Does anyone have a transmission for a 91 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4?
I have one I am selling for parts. It works great forwards but reverse does not work at all. I am asking 600.00 for it. If interested my number is 573-390-0009.
There are many different kinds of seats in the world. There are millions of different kinds of seats in the world.
Where is the throttle positioning sensor on a 1994 Mitsubishi 3000gt?
its right on the throttle body itself, its black and has 2 bolts holding it on.
How do you adjust the timing on a 3000GT?
****EDIT****
He is asking how to adjust timing, not advance timing w/ a resistor. Resistors will decrease the hz the ECU sees to lean out/advance timing is cheap performance mod and should be avoided at all costs. You can find these all over Ebay, and if you buy one of these or install anything other than a piggyback/standalone to reduce your airflow to the ECU, you deserve the blown engine when it happens. They tune the ECU for a safe air fuel ratio from the factory, no need to lean it out to the borderline of knock/engine failure. If you do, at the very least do yourself & engine a favor and get a datalogger to monitor knock, and a wideband 02 sensor to see what your AFR actually is.
TO ADJUST IGNITION TIMING (valve timing is a different animal)
1.) locate the tan/brown plug between passenger strut tower & firewall (near where all the engine wiring comes through the wall)
2.) take the cap off, jump a wire from that terminal to the frame of the car. This puts the ECU into a fixed mode, so it will not automatically adjust ignition timing.
3.) hook up a timing light to #1 plug wire (can do loan a tool from autozone/advance auto)
4.) start car and point light down to crankshaft harmonic balancer (pulley).
5.) You will see the notch on the pulley, make sure it is at 5 degrees BTDC, + or - 2.
6.) If not, rotate the sensor until it is, then lock it down. Turn off the car, remove the jumped wire, then restart the car. The timing should now automatically adjust to about 15 degrees.
7.) If the car doesn't start, you may need to rotate the CAS arm 180 degrees, then re-install.
How do you fix lazy headlights that won't go up all the way by themselves in a 1981 Corvette?
It sounds like you have a vacuum leak somewhere in your system. Probably in a hose somewhere. purchase a vacuum squeeze pump from an auto parts store or mid america. Connect straight to your headlight diaghram. Onec you squeeze the light open it shoul remain open. If not you need to replace the diaphram.Mid America has a book on the wiper and vacuum system for these vettes that is excellent. i suggest you go ahead and buy some new check valves that the book describes. I had problems and followed these procedures and for less than 200 bucks my light have been working great for ten years.Mid America's website is madvett.com.
How do you adjust the idling on a 1993 3000 gt?
Why adjust idle... if this is a n/a you need to just leave it alone unless you have a consistent idle less than 900 or more that 1100 .... You will get no gain from this and if you don't have a consistent idle there is probably something else wrong.....
