Good day,
Is there a good garage in Edmonton area that they are use to work on Delica?
I would like to get a full inspection and change few part on my rig for making my Delica like a new car. I have few issue with my van and I would like to invest some money to make her reliable.

Thank you.

I have developed a trust in Automotion on 111Ave. In my opinion he know's his delica's (and other diesel imports), the import parts acquisition scene, and has working relationships with delica specialists/importers. (780) 484-9269

I was able to get custom mixed spray cans @ NBR Distributors in Kamloops. They are also in Vernon and Salmon Arm. They will use their paint gun or whatever you call it to match. I also tried a number of Mitsubishi codes and most of the usual ones are in their system. They are about $25 per can and...

Hi Zh
You probably know by now rotors are proprietary and need be purchased through mitsubishi or a shop that sells their parts. All the other parts can be had through your local parts retailer, Montero and sport are the same parts. Check out prices they vary a lot.

I just imported this week a 2002 Delica Space Gear with a possible transmission issue.

This is most apparent when keeping the acceleration constant and...

Hi all,

So I managed to forget to put the extra oil filter I brought along in my van when leaving Vancouver, now in Fairbanks, AK, wondering if anyone knows if there is a parts supplier, or a filter that will work on 1995 L400 that can be purchased up here?

Thanks!

Appearantly the FRAM 8936 and the Napa 1675 will work:

I removed panels from the dash to clean up wiring from the Japanese owner and add a radio/DRL module. Everything was working great, until the SRS light started coming on the day after. Is it possible I may have bumped a connector or reset the system by disconnecting the battery?

My delica is misfiring badly and hesitates at low rpm, even died a couple times while stopped in drive. I can smell that it's running rich as well. I'm thinking it's probably the ignition coils. Would like to hear somebody else's opinion on this as well.

Are these the right ones for a 2002 Delica...
