Part C: Periodic Maintenance
Inspections
Listed in this part are inspections and services
which should be performed at least twice a
year (for instance, each spring and fall).You
should let your dealer’s service department
do these jobs. Make sure any necessary repairs
are completed at once.
Proper procedures to perform these services may
be found in a service manual. SeeService
Publications Ordering Information on page 406.
Steering, Suspension and Front
Drive Axle Boot and Seal Inspection
Inspect the front and rear suspension and
steering system for damaged, loose or missing
parts, signs of wear or lack of lubrication. Inspect
the power steering lines and hoses for proper
hook-up, binding, leaks, cracks, chafing, etc.
Clean and then inspect the drive axle boot seals
for damage, tears or leakage. Replace seals
if necessary.
Exhaust System Inspection
Inspect the complete exhaust system. Inspect the
body near the exhaust system. Look for broken,
damaged, missing or out-of-position parts as
well as open seams, holes, loose connections or
other conditions which could cause a heat
build-up in the floor pan or could let exhaust fumes
into the vehicle. SeeEngine Exhaust on
page 121.
Fuel System Inspection
Inspect the complete fuel system for damage
or leaks.
