Just a head's up on this issue ....I believe the 96+
figure only applies to
Mitsu. The Stealth production line ceased in 95,
although a few cars were
marketed in 96 as 96's. Those 96 cars are actually
95's and should be
considered hybrid like the
95's.

They may still be OBDII tho. '94-95 have
all the OBDII hardware, but OBDI
firmware. They could have popped in
a new ECU and wiring harness and that
would have done it. If I'm
not incorrect, the US required all 1996
passenger cars to be OBDII
compliant. The way to check is to have someone
with a '96 Stealth look
under their hood for a sticker that tells emissions
compliance. It
should say either OBDI or OBDII certified in TINY TINY
letters
somewhere.

Given the low low figures on 96's ..( I believe Dodge
doesn't indicate any
figure for 96 and includes them as 95's with a

maybe the individual (?) who recently posted with

It has the type 3 radio with

Thanks John;
That clears that up. It also
addresses the subject of the 96 being in fact
different than the 95. I have
never seen a 96 for a side by side for
comparison. Anything else different
between the 2?? My statistics do not
even give production figures for
96...does anyone have figures for this
year?? Or the total 95's produced for
95?

95 to 96 differences was(Team3S: OBD-II tool for '95?)
***This is the NEW
Team3S list. See message end for more info.***
There are a few other
differences between a 95 and a 96. On the 96 Stealth
the spoiler is
designed slightly different. The spoiler curves up on the
outside
edges. Like this:
http://mn3s.org/new-fin.jpgIn 96,
both the Stealth and 3000GT switched to a darker tan leather instead
of the
beige found in 91-95. Also the whole inside of the doors matched the
color of the seats starting in 96. (not the standard charcoal gray
color)
Speaking of Charcoal gray... That ended in 95. 96
Stealths and 3000GTs
started using a black color for the
dash.
Francis is the MN 3/S member with the 96 R/T TT. In was
manufactered in
January of 96. So there are 96s, built in
1996.

One more thing.... John is
correct. The 96 Stealth R/T TT does have an OBD
II connector on the
plentum and 4 O2 sensors. And I have the scars on my
hands to prove it
as I reached to unplug them when removing the downpipe.

Tim...
A shop is not required,
but is certainly less frustrating. :-)
There should be a
couple threads about this in the archives. Rich LeRoy has
perfected (and
published) his technique. He can probably pull the plenum and
change all six
in less than an hour. I can do the front three in twenty
minutes. When
looking at the back three, I thin of how nice it is to work on
my Suzuki
Swift. More :-)
Looking forward...Chris

Hi Tim;
As Chris has mentioned, the 60 plug procedure
and more is availed courtesy
of Rich, at(
www.stealth-3000gt.st/60k.htm).
But what concerns me is
this...if you have not had the plugs changed in
60,000...then likely the
timing belt needs replacing as well. Given
137,000, you are well past a due
date for the timing belt change and if it
breaks, you will have a world of
hurt to contend with. Consider a new water
pump, belt tensor, and inspect
and/or replace other belts and seals at
the same time.

Hey, Tim,
You'll need a set of tools (including a
special tool) to do the 60k
service yourself. To find out what's
involved, there is a complete,
illustrated "60k How-to" by Rich
Leroy on our FAQ pages (work in
progress). Find it at:
www.stealth-3000gt.st/60k.htmBest,
Forrest

I have asked around all the shops,

that a tuneup for a '91 Dodge Stealth
is nothing but replacing the spark
plugs and air filter. Nothing has to be
done with the timing or anything
else. $350 minimum!!! Is this crazy or
what??? What can I do if I dont have

Well, you can try to do it yourself,
but you'll need at a minimum a bunch of metric sockets, socket wrenches, socket
extensions, torque wrench, each of the plenum/throttle-body gaskets, a full set
of platinum plugs and whatever other things that might need replacement while
you are in there. From a dealer, expect to pay $100 for the set of 6
plugs.
The thing is that it isn't so much the spark plugs that you should
be worried about. Every 60,000 miles the timing belt MUST be
replaced. This is much more difficult than replacing the spark plugs and
should not be attempted by a novice mechanic. Figure on spending $1000 for
a timing belt change with water pump and seals and hopefully they'll be able to
do the spark plugs at the same time and work you a deal on it. Don't have
"Joe's Garage" do it, as there is a high probability of screwing up
the timing belt job if the mechanic is not experienced in doing it.
You
bought one of the most advanced sports cars of its time, nobody ever said it
would be cheap!

Team3S: $350 TO CHANGE SPARK PLUGS??

Tim:
$350 is a bit steep.
At ~$12 each, your plugs should run you
$75 +/- (tax), plus about 2-2.5 hours
shop labor. At $65 per
hour for 2.5 hours, labor should run about $165
+/-. This
brings you up to $240. Air filters aren't pricey, and
if you
already have a K&N, ignore this cost. Are these shops
quoting
you wires as well? Maybe that's what the extra $ is
for.
With a good set of metric sockets and wrenches, along with
the
factory service manual, most anybody can do their plugs in a
couple
hours. Yes, it's a bit of a pain to pull the plenum,
but not impossible
or even particularly a brain-strain. Just
time-consuming and kinda
tough on your back. Note: be careful
when removing the EGR bolts from
the back of the plenum, as the
metal gasket *WILL* want to drop and be lost
forever. If you
take care when removing your old metal gaskets, they
can be
re-used if they are in good shape and you clean them
off.

Hi Tim, I would recommend with that many miles that you do
the following.
. Plugs
. Timing Belt
. Tensioner
. Water
pump
. 4 front cam oil seals
. Front main crank oil seal
By
replacing the water pump and oil seals you are protecting your investment
in
the timing belt. If They go then you must replace the belt
again.

Team3S: Problem has Mitsu shop foreman stumped
***This is the NEW Team3S

Hi,
(1995 Mitsubishi
3000GT VR-4)
I've got a problem that is proving hard for my Mitsubishi
service center to
figure out. Here's what happens:
Under high
torque, usually around 3500 - 4000 rpm, there is a "whining"
or
"grinding" noise. The people at the shop say the sound
sensor they hooked
up tells them the noise is coming from the rear of the
engine compartment,
so they think it "may" be the rear turbo, but
they don't know for sure and
don't want to replace it only to discover the
noise is still there. They
say that they're pretty sure it's NOT the
transmission or transfer case.
Please
help!
Thanks,
Ian

Ian...
What
you're describing sounds like a bearing noise. If they're sure it's not
the
transfer case or transmission, it can only (IMO) be one of two
things...the
bearing in the rear turbo or a rod bearing on the crankshaft.
Either way,
they should be able to isolate it with the old fashioned
stethoscope device
(they sell them at almost all car parts stores).
Looking
forward...Chris

Who out there has an EGT sensor? Where did you get it? And
if I do start
