LUBRICATION AND PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE INTERVALS

Item 23 – Thermostat and

Seal

1. Thermostat

3. Cylinder Head

2. Seal

Figure 19 Typical Thermostat

Installation

Replace the thermostat and seal
every 240,000 miles (384,000 km)

on vehicle engines. On non-vehicle
engines, replace the thermostat and
seal every 4,000 hours or 24 months,
whichever comes

rst.

Item 24 – Crankcase

Breather

The steel mesh breather pad in the
valve cover/intake manifold should
be removed and washed in clean
fuel oil when the valve cover is
removed for valve lash measurement
and adjustment. These intervals are
listed in Table 22.

Item 25 – Engine Tune-Up

There is no scheduled interval for
performing an engine tune-up.
However, the valve lash

must

measured and, if necessary, adjusted at
the regular intervals listed in Table 22.

Engine Application

Valve Lash Measurement/

Adjustment Interval

Motor Coach

Every 60,000 Miles (96,000 km)

or 24 Months*

Transit Coach

Every 45,000 Miles (72,000 km)

or 18 Months*

Stationary, Construction/Industrial,

Agricultural, or Generator Set Engines

Every 1,500 Hours or 45,000

Miles (72,000 km)*

* Whichever comes first.
