    2G Remove Windshield washer nozzles?

    '95 GST. How do you take the washer nozzles out? Mine are clogged solidly at the nozzles -- water runs freely from the hose to the nozzle but not from the nozzle itself and I can neither clear it by pushing a wire through nor backflush it with a syringe.The manual is no help: "5. Remove...

    Resolved 2G - Remove starter -- Embarrassing, but ...

    how do you get the darn thing out? '95 GS-T, auto trans, A/C.The manual says remove battery, air hose to plenum, disconnect starter, remove starter. With the air hose and battery out there's still a whole layer of stuff over where the starter bolts are and I'm not even sure how to get...

    2G Sluggish IACV?

    With idle irregularities and occasional near-stalls after connecting the coolant temperature sensor in my project to put my former parts car on the road I checked the closed throttle position switch: Sure enough, not closed when throttle closed. Adjusted that and things got much better...

    2G Disconnect fuel pump pressure line at pump

    With symptoms of possible very low fuel pressure in my 'parts' car project I'm about to pull the pump out to have a look at the strainer, gas, etc. With the cover plate off it looks just like my 1G Expos but on those cars what appears to be a flare nut fitting accessible through the trunk floor...

    2G How to remove IOD? And test its fuses?

    There's a square yellow looks-like-a-plug in the lower left of the 2g engine compartment fuse block. It's called the I.O.D. and contains two fuses, one of which (F11 on diagrams) supplies power to the ECU. (Like ... important, right?)How do you test those fuses? They seem to be regular...

    2G C203 Strikes Again

    So after the parts GS-T started to run yesterday with a miss caused by a failing 1-4 coil, today I replaced the coil pack. Also installed the new ignition switch.Started it up -- It had an unexpected 'dead cylinder' miss but I drove it 30 feet up the driveway to sit in the sun and dry out...

    2G Bear Tries to Steal GS-T? (A Theft Alarm Mystery)

    Yesterday I woke up to hear the theft alarm horn beeps from my '95 GS-T. Wife grabbed key, ran out, shut it off. There were signs of a bear having been around -- dogs barking frantically, bird feeder knocked down, one of my RhinoRamps knocked over ... a racoon couldn't have done all that...

    Resolved 2G Is this connector important?

    Trying to get my '95 GS-T parts car to crank so I can test compression. This connector is the only thing that's still hanging loose 'cause I can't find where it goes. It's under the front of the battery bracket. Spliced on (badly) so it may not be the standard connector for whatever it is...

    2G Weird theoretical question

    Will these engines run at all with one of the camshafts 180 degrees out?I have a parts car which was said to have been driven several hundred miles to where I bought it, then shortly it 'lost power,' then the new owner started working on it but lost interest. Then Craigs List, a deal, and...

    2G About to put A/C back in operation -- any hints or thoughts?

    My 95 GS-T came with no A/C belt or idler pulley/bracket. I've gotten the bracket assembly and what claims to be the right belt and in the next few days I'll put them in. This is the usual 'looks impossible because there's not enough space for even fingers, let alone tools' job but probably...

    2G Replacement for light bulb for 'OD off' warning in 2g A/T cluster

    This is the smallest bulb in the instrument cluster and the only one on a long stalk. You wouldn't think it would ever fail (how much time is OD locked out?), but mine did and since I sometimes hit that button on the shift lever, I like it to work. The usual searches of Mitsu parts sites...

    2G Valve Cover OEM Color?

    95 GS-T arrived here with the valve cover (and several other things) flaking/peeling gold. All clean now, but as part of 'heading in the direction of 'well cared for original' what color was it in the dealer's showroom? I've looked at a lot of pix, many quite striking, but none labeled...

    2G Remove front shock absorber -- Am I missing something?

    95 GS-T. The procedure in the manual for taking off a front shock is jack up & remove wheel, unbolt the stabilizer link, unbolt upper end of shock, remove bolt that goes through the fork and lower arm, remove the bolt clamping the fork on the bottom end of the shock. According to the manual...

    2G Please educate me on foglight sizes

    My 'new' 95 GS-T came with foglight switch and wiring but no foglights. Since it had a ratty looking '98 bumper and my goal for the car is 'back to original' I bought an aftermarket '95 bumper cover; this went on perfectly. All the fasteners went in perfectly. The air duct for the...

    2G Name that ECU!

    I'm still getting acquainted with my 'new' '95 GST automatic. A couple of owners back there was a plan to make it a race car and while that doesn't seem to have gotten very far I'm trying to be sure exactly what's been done before diving into diagnostic weeds. Evoscan reports the ECU is...

    2G What's my problem?

    '95 GST, auto, 150k miles but engine probably less, bought about a month ago, runs very well except when you get to about 7 psi boost in any gear there's a groaning noise and loss of power. Boost does not fall -- it'll go right on up to 15 psi.Could be a very regular miss -- I've never had...

    2G Best candidate for 'maybe my front wheel is falling off'?

    '95 GST bought two weeks ago, driven a couple hundred miles since, no major problems reported by p.o. or noted since. Returning from a short night test drive (for headlight aim) and about 1/2 mile from home on two-lane mountain road with no place to stop I hear a sudden ker-thunk ker-thunk...

    2G 10 year member, new GST owner

    Worked on my cars all my life, since I first voted for JFK that's a while. Owned Mitsubishi Expo LRVs for 20 years now & do pretty much anything that doesn't require pulling the engine or welding. So a lot of stuff on the 'new' '95 GST is familiar -- timing belt issues, MFI, ECU, Ignition...

    2G How to get DTC on '95 GST?

    Car was sort of assembled from pieces (bumpers are 2gb ...) 2 owners back, he gave it to daughter, it (mostly) sat for a year until I bought it last weekend. It runs passably --- drove it 100 miles to get it home -- but not great. Idle's in the 1200 area, when warm there's an occasional miss...
