MAINTENANCE
At every interval of periodic maintenance service, and
when vehicle is raised for other service, check exhaust
system as follows:
Check rubber mountings for damage, deterioration
and out of position.
Check exhaust system for leakage, loose connec-
tion, dent and damage.
If bolts or nuts are loosened, tighten them to speci-
fied torque. Refer to “ON VEHICLE SERVICE” for
torque data.
Check nearby body areas for damaged, missing, or
mispositioned part, open seam, hole, loose connec-
tion or any other defect which could permit exhaust
fumes to seep into vehicle.
Make sure that exhaust system components have
enough clearance from underbody to avoid over-
heating and possible damage to passenger
compartment carpet.
Any defect should be fixed at once.
