Montero Sport ES 4WD V6-3.0L SOHC (2002)
Idle Speed: Adjustments
Fixed Sas Adjustment
NOTE: The fixed speed adjusting screw (SAS) should not be moved unnecessarily; it has been precisely by the manufacturer.
NOTE: If the adjustment is disturbed for any reason, readjust as follows.
1. Loosen the tension of the accelerator cable sufficiently.
2. Back out the fixed SAS lock nut.
3. Turn the fixed SAS counterclockwise until it is sufficiently backed out, fully closing the throttle valve.
4. Turn the fixed SAS clockwise until the throttle lever is touched (i.e., the point at which the throttle valve begins to open).
From that point, turn the fixed SAS clockwise another 1-1/4 turn.
NOTE: Monitor the TPS value with the scan tool MB991502.
5. Hold the fixed SAS so that it does not move. Tighten the lock nut securely.
6. Adjust the tension of the accelerator cable.
7. Adjust the basic idle speed.
8. Adjust the throttle position sensor.
