OPERATION 127
Starting MP Engines
Use the following procedure:
1. Crank the engine until it starts.
Note:
Do NOT apply the throttle pedal during engine cranking.
CAUTION
DO NOT engage the starting motor too
soon after an incomplete start of the
engine, or the starter may be damaged.
Wait at least five seconds before attempting
to restart the engine.
If the engine does not start immediately,
limit cranking periods to 30 seconds
to avoid overheating and damaging the
starter.
DO NOT rev the engine at start-up.
Turbocharger damage may result.
Lubricants need time to establish a film
between moving parts.
2. After the engine has started, warm the engine until the coolant temperature reaches
normal operating range (77°C to 107°C; 170°F to 225°F). Once the engine reaches this
temperature, it can be operated in a normal fashion.
Note:
Warm-up time can be reduced by increasing engine idle speed between 1000 and
1200 rpm by either applying the throttle pedal or by using the Electronic Hand Throttle
feature (if equipped).
Note:
For bobtail or unloaded applications, the engine may be warmed up by moving the
vehicle with "light" throttle application after only one minute of idle.
Priming the MP Fuel System
DANGER
Before working on or inspecting a
vehicle, set the parking brakes, place the
transmission in neutral and block the
wheels. Failure to do so can result in
unexpected vehicle movement and can
cause serious personal injury or death.
