NOTE:
Excessive white smoke and poor engine perfor-
mance will result if manifold heaters are not recycled.
•
Heat generated by the manifold heaters dissipates
rapidly in a cold engine. If more than two minutes
pass between the time the WAIT TO START light goes
OFF and the engine is started, recycle the manifold
heaters by turning the ignition OFF for at least 5
seconds and then back ON.
•
If the vehicle is driven and vehicle speed exceeds 18
mph (29 km) before the manifold heater post-heat
(after start) cycle is complete, the manifold heaters will
shut off.
•
If the engine is started before the WAIT TO START
light turns off, the preheat cycle will turn off.
•
If the engine is cranked for more than 10 seconds, the
post-heat cycle will turn off.
NOTE:
Engine idle speed will automatically increase to
1000 rpm at low coolant temperatures to improve engine
warm-up.
NOTE:
When a diesel engine is allowed to run out of
fuel or the fuel gels at low temperatures, air is pulled into
the fuel system.
You may try priming as described below.
1. Add a substantial quantity of fuel to the tank (5 to 10
gallons) or eliminate the gelled fuel condition.
2. Crank the engine for 1 to 2 seconds. If the engine does
not start, then release the key or starter button back to the
RUN position (do not turn the key back to the OFF
position). The electric fuel transfer pump will continue to
run and purge air from the system for about 25 seconds.
After 25 seconds, attempt to start the engine again.
3. Start the engine using the Normal Starting Procedure.
