REMOVAL SERVICE POINT

<<A>> ENGINE OIL PAN REMOVAL
1. Remove the engine oil pan mounting bolts.

CAUTION

Perform this slowly to avoid deformation of the
engine oil pan flange.

2. Remove the engine oil pan using special tool oil

pan remover (MD998727).

INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS

>>A<< ENGINE OIL PAN INSTALLATION
1. Remove sealant from the engine oil pan and

cylinder block surfaces.

2. Apply a bead of the sealant to the cylinder block

mating surface of the engine oil pan as shown.

Specified sealant: MITSUBISHI GENUINE
PART MD970389 or equivalent

NOTE: Install the engine oil pan within 15 minutes
after applying sealant.

3. Assemble the engine oil pan to the cylinder block.

CAUTION

Then wait at least one hour. Never start the
engine or let engine oil or coolant touch the
sealant surface during that time.

4. Tighten the engine oil pan mounting bolts to the

specified torque. Be careful when installing, as the
