MAINTENANCE, LUBRICATION AND SERVICE
ENGINE STORAGE
If the vehicle must be parked for a
period (more than 30 days), protect it as
follows:
1 Drain the engine oil.
2 Fill up to the proper level with oil of
the recommended quality and
viscosity.
3 Fill up the fuel tanks with the
recommended grade of fuel.
4 Run the engine for two minutes
around 1000 rpm. Shut the engine
down. DO NOT drain the oil after this
run.
5 Check the coolant for proper levels
of antifreeze and inhibitor protection.
Service as necessary.
6 Seal all engine openings using
protective covers.
To return to service an engine preserved
in this manner, remove previously
installed protective covers. Check all
fluid levels and if necessary replace
engine oil contaminated by
condensation.
