GENERAL Lubricants and Lubricant Capacities Table
Use of fuels containing alcohol is not recommended
unless the nature of the blend can be determined
as being satisfactory.
Gasohol
A mixture of 10% ethanol (grain alcohol)
and 90% unleaded gasoline may be used in your
car.
If problems are experienced as a result
of using gasohol, it is recommended that the car
be operated on gasoline.
Methanol Do not use gasolines containing
methanol (wood alcohol). Use of this type of alcohol
can result in vehicle performance deterioration and
damage critical parts in the fuel system compo-
nents. Fuel system damage and performance prob-
lems, resulting from the use of gasolines containin g
methanol, may not be covered by the new car war-
ranty.
Gasolines containing
Ether)
Unleaded gasoline containing 15% or
may be used in car. Fuel containing MTBE
over 15% vol. may cause reduced engine perfor-
mance and produce vapor lock or hard starting.
MATERIALS
TO FUEL
Indiscriminate use of fuel system -cleaning’
should be avoided. Many of these materials in-
tended for gum and varnish removal
highly active solvents or similar ingredients that
can be harmful to gasket and diaphragm materials
used in fuel system component

1.Spark plugs must spark properly to assure proper engine
performance and reduce exhaust emission
Therefore, they should be periodically with new
ones.

6. IGNITION CABLES (Replace)
The ignition cables should. be replaced periodicall y with new
ones. After replacing, make sure that the ignition cables are
routed properly and fully seated.
NOTE
When disconnecting an ignition cable; be sure to ho ld the
cable boot. If the cable is disconnected by pulling on the
cable alone, an open circuit might result.
7. TIMING BELT (Replace)

Replace the belt with a new one periodically to ass ure proper
engine performance.
For disassembly and assembly procedures; Refer to GROUP

8. DRIVE BELT (For Generator, Water Pump, Power Steering Pump) (Check condition)
Check the tension of the drive belt. Check the driv e belt
for evidence of cuts and cracks, and replace it if defective.
