2. Electrical parts should never be struck sharply, as with a hammer, or allowed to fall on a hard surface.
Such a shock can damage an electrical part.
3. Never replace a defective electrical component without first determining what caused the failure. If the
failure was brought on by some other item or items, they too must be repaired or replaced before using
the vehicle.
4. Make sure all connectors in the circuit are clean and tight, and examine wires for signs of overheating,
fraying, etc. Wires in poor condition and bad connections will affect electrical system operation.
5. Measure coil and winding resistance when the part is cold (at room temperature).
6. All the electrical leads are either single-color or two-color and, with only a few exceptions, must be con-
nected to leads of the same color. On any of the two-color leads, there is a greater amount of one color
and a lesser amount of a second color, so a two-color lead is identified by first the primary color and then
the secondary color. For example, a yellow wire with a thin red stripe is referred to as a “yellow/red” wire.
LUBRICATION SYSTEM
FE350 engines are equipped with hydraulic lifters and a pressurized lubrication system which consists of
these components (Figure 13-1, Page 13-5 and Figure 13-3, Page 13-6):
• Inlet filter screen (2)
• Trochoid pump (3)
• Cartridge filter (5)
• Pressure relief valve (8)
