Body Lubrication
All moving points of the body, such as
door and bonnet hinges and locks, should
be lubricated each time the engine oil is
changed. Use a nonfreezing lubricant on
locks during cold weather.
Make sure the bonnet's secondary latch
keeps the bonnet from opening when the
primary latch is released.
Fuel Filter (Diesel Engine)
The fuel filter acts as a sedimentor that
separates water from fuel.
If 0.13 L (0.14 US qt, 0.11 Imp qt) of
water accumulates in this filter, the
warning light will illuminate.
When it does, drain the water:
1. Place a small tray under the fuel filter.
2. Loosen the drain plug on the underside
of the filter about one turn by hand.
3. Pump the priming pump at least 7
times to expel the water.

4. After pumping out all the water, tighten
the plug securely by hand. Use the
priming pump to inspect for leaks.
