Cooling System Tips
To reduce potential for engine and transmission overheat-
ing in high ambient temperature conditions, take the
following actions:
•
City Driving — When stopped, shift the transmission
into NEUTRAL and increase engine idle speed.
•
Highway Driving — Reduce your speed.
•
Up Steep Hills — Select a lower transmission gear.
•
Air Conditioning — Turn it off temporarily.
Do Not Operate The Engine With Low Oil Pressure
When the engine is at normal operating temperature, the
minimum oil pressures required are:
Idle 700 to 800 RPM
10 psi (69 kPa)
Full speed and load
30 psi (207 kPa)
CAUTION!
If oil pressure falls to less than normal readings, shut
the engine off immediately. Failure to do so could
result in immediate and severe engine damage.
Do Not Operate The Engine With Failed Parts
All engine failures give some warning before the parts fail.
Be on the alert for changes in performance, sounds, and
visual evidence that the engine requires service. Some
important clues are:
•
Engine misfiring or vibrating severely.
•
Sudden loss of power.
•
Unusual engine noises.
•
Fuel, oil or coolant leaks.
•
Sudden change, outside the normal operating range, in
the engine operating temperature.
•
Excessive smoke.
•
Oil pressure drop.
