I don't know how you can check them without pulling the crankshaft. 
I hope this isn't your problem but maybe someone near you has an old oil jet so you can see if the parts match. New ones are only $9.00 each from a Mitsusbishi dealer. Only problem is the crank must be out to change them.
Good luck. |
Thanks for the info.
