** SAE 5W-30 may be used for operation in verycold weather areas where the lowest atmos-pheric temperature is below -23°C (-10°F).SELECTION OF LUBRICANTS
ENGINE OILEngine oil should be used which conform to the requirements
of the API classification “For Service SG” or “For Service
SGKD”, and have the proper SAE grade number for the
expected temperature range.
Caution
Nondetergent or straight mineral oil must never be used.
Energy Conserving OilIn order to improve fuel economy and conserve energy new,
lower friction engine oils have been developed. These oils are
readily available and can be identified by such labels as “Energy
Conserving
II”,“Energy Saving”,
“Improved Fuel Economy”,
etc.
Oil Identification Symbol
A standard symbol appears on the top of oil containers and has
three district areas for identifying various aspects of the oil.
The top portion will indicate the quality of the oil. The center
portion will show the SAE viscosity grade, such as SAEIOW-30. “Energy Conserving
II” shown in the lower portion,
indicates that the oil has fuel-saving capabilities.

1. FUEL SYSTEM (TANK, LINES, CONNECTIONS
AND FUEL FILLER CAP) (Check for leaks)
/ 2.
FUEL HOSES (Check for leaks or damage)MWShGC
1. Check for damage or leakage in the fuel lines and
connections and looseness of the fuel filler cap.
2.Inspect the surface of fuel hoses for heat and mechanical
damage. Hard and brittle rubber, cracking, checking, tears,
cuts, abrasions and excessive swelling indicate deteriora-
tion of the rubber.
3.If the fabric casing of the rubber hose is exposed by cracks
and abrasions in the fuel system, the hoses should be
changed.

ing in fuel pipe line so that fuel will not flow out.
(I) Remove the fuel gauge cover in the luggage compartment.
(2) Disconnect the fuel pump harness connector.
(3) Start the engine and after it stops by itself, turn the ignition
switch to OFF.
(4) Connect the fuel pump harness connector.
(5) Apply the specified sealant to the rear floor pan.
Specified sealant: 3M ATD Part No. 8509 or equivalent
(6) Install the fuel gauge cover.
FUEL PUMP OPERATION CHECK
M13FDAI
(1) Set the ignition switch at OFF.
(2) Check that when the battery voltage is directly applied to
the fuel pump check terminal (black), the operating sound
of the pump can be heard.
NOTESince the fuel pump is installed in the fuel
.tank, its
operating sound cannot be readily heard. Remove the fuel
tank cap and listen to the operating sound through the filter
port.
(3) Hold the high pressure fuel hose between your fingers and
check that the fuel pressure can be felt.
