montero flat tow
Howdy. New to forum,and Mitsubishi.
I purchased an older Montero 4x4. 1991 model with 234000 miles. Still in pretty good shape. Dead miss on one cylinder but I believe valve job will fix that. No smoke and no discolored oil. Heck of an engine in these cars.
All I could find in my search for flat tow behind RV were a couple answers.
Owners manual states with automatic its a no go. However I noticed that on a standard tranny there is a neutral position but not on the automatic.
Got er to looking and found a guy who used what he called a false neutral. Used a fold over slotted keeper to keep it there in that position. I checked and sure enough there is a neutral position between 4l and 4h.we put it there and left tranny in park and it rolled right away.
So did anybody else try this?
Seems to me its a cya thing by Mitsubishi to never let tranny turn as you go down the road.
Anyhow what a ya think?
