hi all i hope you can help ive just bought a l200 warrior 52 plate and its got a rattle coming from the gearbox (ithink) when i press the clutch it stops please help it sounds really bad and i think its getting worse thanks in advance ,mark

Hi there I`ve searched but could find no answer...
1st and 2nd gear are just not there!
Is any one else familiar with this problem and how to fix it?
Is it just a dropped pin from the selector fork or something more sinister?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks Lee

hey all

i was wanting to replace my 12V 6g72 engine with a 24V 6g72 engine in my '91 model triton as the one i have currently is on its way out. is such a conversion easy and worthwhile to preform? would there be many modifications which need to be made, and also what would i require to do such a conversion? could i keep my current gas setup with the new engine? the reason i ask is that i can't find a new 12V 6g72 engine, but i can find heaps of new 24V 6g72 engines. even better though, does somebody know where i could get a 12V 6g72 engine from?

many thanks, all help is greatly appriciated,

Hi all, new on here so be gentle with me

I have a 52 plate (2002) L200 4Life and to day experienced a rather large power loss whilst towing.

I had a trailer of hay on the back, about 100 bales for the farm types amongst us , and to start with could not get above approx 40 mph, after a while the engine check lamp came on (bottom left of instrument panel, engine shaped symbol?), and power dropped enough to slow me to 20 mph. I stopped and checked the simple things like air filter and the fuel filter drain, as well as a visual inspection of the boost hoses and vacuum lines - nothing instantly recognisable as a fault.

After switching off the engine and restarting, the inspection lamp went off. The engine revs freely to the red line - no problem - so swapped loads for an empty trailer and progressed back to base. On the way back, it cruised happily at 60 mph with no problems.

Does anyone have any pointers as to where to start looking as the truck will be needed quite a lot over the next few weeks

My 92 MM start and runs for about three seconds then dies. I found the TPS bad and replaced it but it still does the same thing. If you push the gas pedal it revs up then dies. I checked the fuel pump and it is working. Any help would be great
Thanks

hi,

thanks

Hi, new to this, but can someone please tell me if it is a big job to change timing chain in a 4g54 motor. example do i need to remove head and sump or just one of these and are there any little quirks that is common doing this job? my mechanic has told me to supply new chain and tensioners and timing cover gasket and thats all. i thought if it needs head or sump removeal then i would need those gaskets as well, also he told me about six hour job. thanx in advance to all who answer and offer advice.

Hi, I have an 2003 L200 Warrior, does anyone know where I can find the VSS (Vehicle Speed Sensor) wire so that I can connect it to a sat nav system?

I have search so many sites looking for an electrical guide but I haven't been able to find a correct wiring diagram. I have checked in the workshop manual which shows the cable coming out of the ECU but that is it, it doesn't show what the colour is or where it is located (for example, is the cable present in the dash somewhere?).

Any help is much appreciated

Regards,

Joe.

I have a couple of , HOPEFULLY, minor Electrical probs.......when I put the tilly into 4X4, NO lights come on on the Dash...could this be a blown Globe, & if so, easy to replace?? Or could it be a Wire off the Gearbox or something???

Also, there is this neato setup on the Dash, with Altimeter, Angle thingie, & inside & outside Temp Gauge....WAS working, suddenly it dont....any ideas, please?? I am very new @ Tritons.....Thanx in advance....Ratt.

Hi guys, was just wondering if anyone has or knows of anyone who's fitted power steering to a 1986 L200. Is there much involved in fitting it, and can i use a power-steer setup from any mitsi vehicle or do i have to get an l200 one.

next thing on the agenda, there is a lot of play in the steering box, on inspection it's as if the gears are getting worn down, but i was told that the boxes can be adjusted. Does anyone know how to do this?

I took the heads to be milled because the person who owned it before me blew the head gaskets. So I pulled the heads and all and i spoke with this reputable machinist supposedly and asked if i should pull the cams and and gears he said" no ...when they are in the top dead center of the compression stroke the valves are out of the way enough to mill them 5 thousands". ok cool....so i take them in and when i go to get them back I get a box of parts back...... I'm like WTF? I got the heads all back together except for the cam gears.....which gear goes on which...chiltons doesn't say much except mark the sides before you pull em off......any help with the passenger side part number would be great......

Check out www.mightyd50.com for the biggest online Mighty Max/ Ram50 community. You can probably find any information your looking for by searching or asking in a thread.

I have a 91 Triton diesel with a blown gearbox, will a box from a petrol engine fit without any problems. Davo757

Hi there, im looking at getting some new wheels, and im not sure on what is the minimum and/or maximum offset i can get away with.

I have a k series (90-96 model) or whatever.

It is a 4wd double cab.

At the moment its got the standard rims on it.

Cheers, and look forward to a reply

Firstly, as a newbie to the forum, can I just say Hi to everyone - in particular those of you that may help throughout this thread.

Suppose the easiest thing to do would be to list the symptoms, any and all help appreciated as I have had 2 x local garages have a look and a Mitzi dealer, and get different answers off each,

1) Rattle / squeak from engine when idylling
2) Will not accelerate up-hill after about 40-50mph (will happily go to 70mph down-hill) very sluggish, feels like it wants to cut out
3) After about 30-40 miles of driving from cold there is a screeching noise that sounds like a slipping belt during acceleration after about 2000rpm in every gear (belts have been changed, but problem persists especially up hills
4) When screeching occurs, engine starts to overheat very quickly, but then temp falls when I leave the accelerator pedal and screeching stops

Just to add it has done 105,000 miles - dont know if that helps but I'm desperate. Need the vehicle for work.

Thanks again in advance.

Does anyone know what kind of engines if any can fit with little motification to the pickup? I have put two 2.6 in my little prized pick-up and now I am lookling to up grade or use a more relible choice. Thanks

On a 1982 4G64 motor, the service manual lists that the ignition timing should be 5 degrees BTDC but there is also a sticker on the air cleaner that says it should be 13 degrees BTDC.

Does anyone know what is should be? Perhaps I should split the difference and go for 9 degrees BTDC!

Ive got a 1984 l200 with a carbie 4g63 n/a motor. Bought it a few days ago and was starting and running fine.
Yesterday after loading the tray with dirt ( the rear end is sitting quite low)
it refuses to start. The petrol gauge is aying just under half.
If i pour fuel into the carb it will start fine but will then cut out. I pulled off the fuel line and it seems fine. Could anything else be causing this problem?

Cheers.

I have a K34T model with a 4D56T engine and I want to fit an intercooler on it...there aren't any intercooled ones where I'm from so I was wandering if it would be possible to fit an intercooler from a Pajero/Montero on it?

Tachometer has stopped working in my 97 Triton GLS V6. Need a wiring diagram or info on tacho feed to t/shoot problem.
Also has anyone fittted an aftermarket tacho and can supply fitting instructions to do this.

Hello guys,hope someone can shed some light on some glowplug issues. I have a uk 2004 l200 warrior,the glow plug system has 1 relay on the inner wing engine temp sensor and the timer controller is built into the ecu/brain. it had some good quality glow plugs recently wich have failed after 4months.
Being suspicious i tested the circuit out. When the engine is cold on ignition i get power to the glowplugs for about 16-20sec then when i start up the glowplugs stay on for around 3.5 minutes! is this correct??? worried this is abit long and will burn out plugs quickly as it is just 12v system,doesn't drop voltage down at all.Does anyone know what the time should be from cold? when the engine is warm plugs briefly come on so guess temp sensor side of things is working.
And why are the plugs so damm expensive! someone told me they have ceramic in them??

My 2008 L200, auto transmission, 3.2 DID engine, has, what seems to me, a driveline vibration which starts at about 85km/h, intensifies up to 115 km/h, reduces and then disappears at about 140 km/h. The dealer (the only one in Jamaica) looked at the problem twice, and I have had the wheels re-balanced by an independent shop, but no sussess. Has anyone experienced this problem, and is there a solution?

Hey Folks!

Does anyone have a complete list of all the recalls for the KB9T Triton L200? Is there a list available and who has had any recall fixes done on their L200's?

Dear Sirs,

I bought a L200 3.5L gasoline 2008. Just after the first oil change at 5300Km, I have heard an abnormal noise when engine is hot at idle engine speed...
Dealer replace the Auto Lash Adjusters but the noise continues.
We performed a test killing each cilinder by removal each spark plug cable...and the noise dissapear when remove the cable N° 2...My questions:
1- There is any piston problem?
2- There is any problem on engine block?
3- There is any problem on crankshaft or bearings?

Do you have any similar experience on new engine?

Thanks for your attention on this matter.

Best Regards

Hello to you all, I have an L200 2.4 diesel when I accelorate hard I don't have a problem with it but if i accelerate slowly when the rpm gets between 2000 and 2250 the truck plucks as though I were lifting my foot on and off the accelerator quickly, I wondered if anyone had experienced a similar thing and could point me in the right direction.
Thanks.

Hi guys,

I'm new here. I have a Mitsubishi L200, which we call it Storm here in Indonesia. Lately, the turbo has been making lots of whistling noises whenever it spools and I figured that the turbo is probably due for a change.

Due to limited resource in getting the right turbo, I need to find out the specific turbo this monster is using. Anyone here willing to share some information on this?

Here's more information on the vehicle:

Brand/Model: Mitsubishi Storm
Chassis Type: K74T
Engine Type: 4D56
Transmission: Auto
Manufactured Year: 2000
Manufactured Country: Thailand

Many thanks!

Where can I buy?

Thanks!

Hi all, just gone and scratched my 2005 L200 black trojan this morning, need the colour code to get some touch up paint. Where can I find the colour code. Looked under bonnett, there's 2 plates with info on, one on rt hand side and one under windscreen. Can't see which reference it would be. I've looked on internet, some places say it should be Cosmos black, which I can't find a code for, other places say it's Pyrennees Black. Any ideas, thanks, Kate

Hello,

I had a problem with my truck throwing codes. It informed me my mass airflow sensor was bad and my throttle positioning sensor was bad, same have been replaced but I still have a major issue. My truck will not go above 2000 RPM's its like theres a governor or rev limitor right at 2000 rpms and it wont accept any more gas until the engine drops below 2000 again. Has anyone heard of this problem or know what it may be? I am at my witts end and I cannot figure this out! Please help! Thank You!

We are the only owners of the truck and I met my wife in it.

The roof has mange, the bushings are gone all around and basic maintenance is showing as a need.

Could go a couple ways with the upgrades as a theme. Going to stick with reliability and safety.

So far I have,

1) Basic tune up with plugs, wires, rotor, cap, etc. (nothing fancy just OEM).
2) Front/Rear/Sway bushings, poly Energy Suspension.
3) Shocks all around, KYB GR2's.
4) $100 Sony Stereo with a couple 4" in dash speakers.
5) Door handles, Mirrors, Gate Handle, Grill, Lights, Turn Lights.

Oil changes, tire balancing, and things like this all come in-line with normal use.

I can put 140+ miles on it in a day easy in Highway miles.

The engine is sound although the exhaust gasket blew and it is causing some issues. Going to change that out soon.

Once I am done with the mechanincs then the plan is to shoot it with the same color (Panama Green) and then some kind of Armor Spray in the bed and in the cab (going to get rid of the carpet).

After reading up here, I am still unclear on the exhaust dicussions. I know I would like to do ceramic headers (wrapped if needed or if it helps) with 2.5" out to a new cat+muffler. Not sure on the combo,... I am not looking for performance outside or mileage and I do not need for it to sound throaty.

Also looking at all the bolt on style upgrades. The ignition boosters claim a lot of things, has anyone here used one and noticed mileage increases or smoother performance?

What about the air intakes? I see that I can get a whole new intake with a nice washable filter on it,... is it all looks or does the standard air box with a K&N do just about the same?

For the interior, I am thinking of building a flip up box base with 2 bucket seats instead of the bench that is in it now. This would give me a place to 'hide' some speakers as well as storage for other things.

Anyone have good suggestions on some confortable bucks with a low mount depth? The more 'box' I can build up under them the better.

Also, if anyone has suggestions for mileage/light performance/reliability upgrades then I am all ears.
