Operation
8.
Check color of exhaust smoke.
•
No color or light blue - Engine is running in good
condition.
•
Black - Incomplete combustion. Check cause.
•
White or dark blue - Engine is burning engine oil.
Check cause.
9.
Check for usual engine vibration and noises. If any are
heard or felt, investigate cause.
NOTE:
If engine coolant temperature gauge pointer
moves into the red zone, the engine coolant
temperature warning light will turn "ON". Allow
the engine to run at low idle speed until the
temperature gauge registers in the white zone
again. When the white zone is reached, allow
the engine to idle for an additional three - five
minutes before shutting down the engine. If not
allowed to idle, heat surge may develop which
will damage the engine. Allowing the engine to
idle will dissipate heat. Check the coolant level,
look for a loose fan belt, inspect for debris
around radiator, and so on.
No.
