. ENGINE MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
.1 Inital Start Up Maintenance
The initial start up checks must be made putting the engine into
service. Please refer to the Maintenance Schedule on page ..... and
perform the initial start-up operations in the sequence shown in
column 1.
.2 Routine Maintenance
Routine maintenance provides the best solution for making sure
that the engine is ready when you are. The folowing are some
routine service points:
Make frequent checks of the engine oil and coolant levels
Repair any oil or coolant leaks immediately
Check battery condition and cables frequently
Keep the engine air filter clean
Monitor engine coolant temperature and oil pressure
Check and repair any gas leaks immediately
.3 Scheduled Preventive Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule on page ......... to ensure that
all of maintenance items listed are checked and replaced as
recommended at the hours shown.
.4 Engine Oil Level Check
The engine oil level should be checked daily. It is recommended
that the oil be checked just before the engine is started for the first
time for that day. The oil level should be between the Add and
the Full marks on the dipstick.
CAUTION:
Do not operate the engine with the oil level below the
bottom or Add mark on the dipsstick,
or above the top or Full
mark on the dipstick.
.4.1 Adding Engine Oil
It is normal to add oil in the period of time between oil changes.
The amount will meets or exceeds the recommended specification.
.4.2 Changing Engine Oil and Filter
The engine oil and filter must be changed every 200 hours or every
3 mounts whichever occurs first. Under normal operating conditions,
you do not need to change them more often if you use oil and
filters of the recommended quality.
The oil and filters should be changed more often if the engine is
operating in dusty or extremely dirty areas, or during cold weather.
No oil additivies or break-in oil changes is required.
.4.3 Oil Filter
The PSI GM
Powertrain
engines use an Ac Delco oil filter as original
equipment. An equivalent oil filte must be used when servicing the
engine (see Engine Specifications for the recommended oil filter
for your engine).
The filter protects your engine from harmful, abrasive, or sludgy
particles without blocking the flow of oil to vital engine parts.
To replace the filter, use a proper filter wrench to remove the filter.
Clean the filter mounting base and lightly coat the gasket surface
of the new filter with engine oil. Hand tighten the filter until the
gasket contacts the base, then tighten another
1
/
2
turn. Fill the
engine with the correct amount of oil, run the engine and check
for oil leaks at the drain plug and oil filter gasket. Tighten as
necessary to stop any oil leakage noted.
.5 Engine Air Cleaner
The engine air cleaner filters air entering the engine intake system
and acts as a silencer and flame arrester when assembled to the
intake system.
Air that contains dirt and grit produces an abrasive fuel mixture
and can cause severe damage to the cylinder walls and piston rings.
Damage to the cylinder walls and piston rings will cause high oil
consumption and shorten engine life.
A restricted or dirty air cleaner will also cause a rich fuel mixture.
Thus, it is extremely important that the air cleaner be serviced
properly at the recommended intervals.
CAUTION: Service the air cleaner more frequently under
severe dusty or dirty conditions.
Remove the primary air cleaner element from the air cleaner assembly
and inspect the element for foreign metarial restrictions or signs
of excessive wear or damage. Replace the element if necessary.
Remove all dust and foreign matter from the air cleaner housing.
Reinstall the air cleaner element. Reinstall the air cleaner cup, and
securely fasten the retaining clips.
Safety Elemet
If your engine is equipped with an air cleaner which utilizes a safety
element, ensure that the element is properly in place before installing
the primary element.
Change the safety element annually.
.6 Cooling System Coolant Level
Check the coolant level of the radiator daily and only when the
engine is cool. Generally a good time to do this is just prior to
starting the engine for the first time each day.
