Cleaning the Engine
*
[SV05610(ALL)04/95]
A clean engine is more efficient because the
engine is able to cool properly. A build up of
grease and dirt acts as an insulator, keeping the
engine warmer than normal.
*
[SV05620(ALL)05/95]
q
Extreme care must be used if a power washer
is used to clean the engine. The high pressure
fluid could penetrate sealed parts and
assemblies causing damage or malfunctions.
*
[SV05630(ALL)04/95]
q
In order to avoid possible cracking of the
engine block or fuel injection pump, do not
spray a hot engine or injection pump with
cold water.
*
[SV05640(ALL)06/95]
q
The alternator, distributor and air intake must
be covered. Covering these components will
help prevent water damage.
*
[SV05650(ALL)04/95]
Never wash or rinse the engine while it is
running. Water getting into the engine may
cause internal damage.

Choosing the Right Fuel
*
[SV07680(ALL)05/95]
Use only UNLEADED FUEL in your vehicle.

damaged because you used the wrong fuel.
*
[SV07690(ALL)05/95]

more responsive and maintain its good fuel
economy and emissions. It should not be

your fuel tank if you continue to use a
high-quality fuel.
