[teichou]

[aviboy]

[teichou]

yep
try that and see if it improves your fuel economy

[aviboy]

i thought someone said that my car marries a map sensor or sumn so??? Does that mean their is no throttle body?? What plugs ual recogmend?

[teichou]

look on the first page for plug recommendations
there a throttle body

MAP- Manifold Absolute Pressure
MAS- Mass Airflow Sensor

they are just different sensors that are used on the intake map sensors are usually after the throttle body and mas are usually before

[aviboy]

thanks for clearing that up... Will try soon

[teichou]

i getl accustomed to the gearbox
now the car feels slow again

[fras]

Hold it down idle

[aviboy]

For the CVT tranny... what mileage to change oil at??? Any special belts may need to change etc?

[fras]

aviboy @ 20,000K and use the correct grade

[ArabKing2]

Hey can 4G92 mods work on a 4G18 engine?

[aviboy]

every 20,000???

[ronsin1]

yes thats right 20,000 use mitsubishi SPIII

[aviboy]

well the car i bought was serviced by DM... Doing 65000 km... las sevice from there was 55000... then i should change the cvt fluid??? Were do i get the cvt fluid? how much to buy??? i hav been hearing these trannys mashin up alot... das true?

[fras]

ArabKing2 mods such as?

aviboy 20,000km... 5 Qrts should do.
I had mine almost 2yrs no probs with the tranny!
Sho, Venum & Idle would better tell u where to get the tranny fluid there

[idlemind]

Thanks fras...had a ball at dex



aviboy, i suggest u do a oil change, what will it hurt?
the CVT trannies hold out good IMHO, and i run the gears up in tiptronic

cant go wrong with an external tranny cooler (use search)
and check out the first post on Page 1 of this thread for shops
um off the bat, ESAS or Autorama....hold for venum or ronsin1, for south locations

[aviboy]

I gotta tune up... wat kinda mileage allyuh fellas getting? AND wat GAS allyuh using??

[idlemind]

premium ONLY
i get 300 km on a full up from gas light

im always in traffic, and if not i drive real spirited
lancer is a 1.8 and tiptronic, both of which hard on fuel economy by itself

[ArabKing2]

Mods like extractors and gearbox of the 4G92. Would they work ?

[ronsin1]

murads in marabella $65 ah quart abt ah year aback not sure if they raised it

Federal on ciepro street $69.00 ah quart just recently (oil change with machine using the SP III will cost you $675.00, and using the new mitsubishi oil will be in the range of $1200.00)

[aviboy]

any other views on the gas to use???

[DJ Kaotic]

Only use premium if u have to use super , use an injector cleaner (dunno if it would be the same for GDI's,) if its GLX like mine.

I use Red Line additives after every 3 Full ups. If you in d east u can check Ramcharans Parts place on Pasea road he has the Tranny fluid SPIII for $63. And i change my fluid regularly, due to running 18" chromes it puts a slight strain on the tranny, good thing i don't drive "spirited" eh idlemind.

How easy is it to install a Tranny cooler? and where is the best mounting place for it ?

[idlemind]

DJ Kaotic, ur 18s carries its own strain, i runnin some light 16" momos

How easy is it to install a Tranny cooler? and where is the best mounting place for it ?

this i have not investigated personally, but i know venum had one installed but like we have to invite them back here, i believe it mounts to ur radiator and takes over (or adds to) the two hoses that goes to the tranny.

i think its sumtin generic too so it should be easier and cheaper to install
i think theres an entire thread here in the mitsu forum on it...use search
