Chapter 8 PERIODIC INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
Fuel Control Link Ball Joint - Inspect
Check ball joint in the fuel control link for play. If the
amount of play is 0.1 mm [0.004 in.] or more, replace
the ball joint with the new one.
If the sealed ball joints are found loosened, contact a
dealer of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. If the seal
on the ball joint is broken, the warranty is invalidated.
If the ball joints are integrated in the control link,
replace the control link when the ball joints have loos-
ened. When installing ball joints, be sure to tighten the
nuts firmly.
