LUBRICATION
AND
MAINTENANCE

• MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE
A crankcase ventilation system must be clean to
provide good operation and durability. Periodic main­
tenance is necessary. Replace the PCV valve. Re­
move residual combustion deposits from the hoses and throttle body/intake manifold passages.
The PCV valve should be replaced and the system
should be serviced at the interval specified in main­
tenance schedule. If a vehicle is routinely used for short trips, the crankcase ventilation system could
possibly require more maintenance.
CRANKCASE AIR INLET FILTER
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE Replace or clean, the air inlet filter at the interval
specified in maintenance schedule.
More frequent PCV system maintenance could be
required for:
• Vehicles routinely used for short trips
• Vehicles routinely involved in stop and go traffic
operation
• Vehicles routinely involved in extended periods of
engine idle
MAINTENANCE Clean and lubricate the crankcase air inlet filter
according to the following procedure. (1) Disconnect the fresh air hose from the port on
the crankcase air inlet filter housing (Fig. 8).
(2) Remove the air filter housing from the cylinder
head cover (Fig. 8). Clean the filter in kerosene or a similar solvent.
(3) Lubricate the filter by inverting the housing
and filling it with SAE 30 viscosity engine oil.
(4) Insert the air filter housing nipple in the cylin­
der head cover grommet. Connect the fresh air hose
to the upper port (Fig. 8).

FUEL
SYSTEM

INSPECTION The fuel system filler cap, nozzle, tubes, hoses, and
connections should be inspected periodically.
FUEL FILTER The fuel filter requires service only when a fuel
contamination problem is suspected. For proper diag­
nosis and service procedures refer to Group 14, Fuel
System.
GASOLINE ENGINE FUEL REQUIREMENTS All gasoline engines require fuel that has a mini­
mum octane rating of 87 determined by the (R +
M)/2 calculation method.
The use of a brand of unleaded gasoline that con­
tains additives is recommended. Gasoline with addi­
tives will improve fuel economy and reduce emissions.

ALCOHOL/GASOLINE
BLENDS
Many brands of blended unleaded gasoline am now
available. Unleaded gasoline is blended with oxygenated-type
fuels to produce a clean air gasoline in many areas.
The use of this type of blended fuel is recommended.
ETH ANOL—Unleaded gasoline and ethanol
blended fuels are a mixture of 10 percent ethanol and 90 percent unleaded gasoline. This is an accept­
able blend of fuel.
MTBE— MTBE blended fuels are a mixture of un­
leaded gasoline and up to 15 percent MTBE (Methyl
Tertiary Butyl Ether). Unleaded gasoline blended
with MTBE is acceptable.

INSPECTION/LUBE
OIL
LEVEL
The transmission should be checked for leaks when
other service is necessary under the vehicle. To check
the lube oil level, remove the fill hole plug (Fig. 2 ). If the level is below the bottom of the fill hole, raise
the level to the bottom of the fill hole with:
• Castrol Syntorq for NV4500 transmissions
• SAE 5W-30 engine oil (API Service SG, SG/CD or
SG/CE) for Getrag 360 transmissions.

The condition of the ATF also should be deter­
mined. If the ATF is dark in color and has a strong odor, the fluid should be changed. Also the filter should be replaced and the bands adjusted.
The following procedure must be used to check the
automatic transmission fluid (ATF) level.
(1) Position the vehicle on level ground.
(2) Operate the engine at idle speed.
(3) Apply the parking brake.
(4) Place the gear selector in N (neutral).
(5) Remove the dipstick from the tube. Wipe it
clean and determine if the ATF is hot or warm.
Hot ATF has a temperature of approximately
82°C (180°F). Warm ATF is when its temperature
is between 29-52°C (85-125°F). (6) Wipe the dipstick clean and completely insert it
into the tube. Remove the dipstick from the tube and
observe the ATF level.
(7) If the ATF is hot, the level should be in the
crosshatched area that is marked OK.
(8) If the ATF is warm, the level should be be­
tween the two dimples.

BODY
COMPONENT
MECHANISMS
LUBRICATION REQUIREMENTS
All operating mechanisms and linkages should be
lubricated when necessary. This will maintain ease of operation and provide protection against rust and
excessive wear. The door weatherstrip seals should
be lubricated to prolong their life as well as to im­ prove door sealing.

LUBRICANT SPECIFICATIONS
All applicable exterior and interior vehicle operat­
ing mechanisms should be:
• Inspected • Cleaned
• All the pivoting/sliding contact areas on the mech­ anisms should then be lubricated.
MOPAR®Multi-Mileage Lubricant or an equiva­
lent, should be used to lubricate the mechanisms.
The door weatherstrip seals should be lubricated
with silicone lubricant spray. Refer to the Body Lu­
bricant Specifications chart below for additional lu­
bricant applications.

LUBRICATION
(1) When necessary, lubricate the cab and cargo
box operating mechanisms with the specified lubri­
cants.

(2) Apply silicone lubricant to a cloth and wipe it
on door seals to avoid over-spray that can soil pas­
senger clothing. (3) Before applying lubricant, the component
should be wiped clean. After lubrication, any excess
lubricant should be removed.
(4) The hood latch, latch release mechanism, latch
striker and safety latch should be lubricated periodi­
cally.
(5) The door lock cylinders should be lubricated 2
times each year (preferably autumn and spring): • Spray a small amount of lock cylinder lubricant di­
rectly into the lock cylinder
• Apply a small amount to the key and insert it into
the lock cylinder • Rotate it to the locked position and then back to
the unlocked position several times
• Remove the key. Wipe the lubricant from it with a
clean cloth to avoid soiling of clothing.

TIRES
RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE
The condition of the tires should be inspected. The
inflation pressures tested/corrected at the same time as the engine oil is changed and the oil filter is re­
placed.
The tires/wheels should be rotated periodically to
ensure even tread wear. The tires/wheels should be
rotated at the first 12 000 km (7,500-miles) interval.
Thereafter, at each 24 000 km (15,000-miles) inter­
val.
INSPECTION
Inspect the tires for excessive wear, damage. Test
the tires for the recommended inflation pressure and adjust the pressure accordingly. Refer to the tire in­
flation pressure decal located on the left door face. Also to Group 22—Tires And Wheels for tire pres­sure charts, tire replacement, and treadwear indica­

tors.

ROTATION
Tires/wheels should be rotated according to the rec­
ommended interval. The first tire/wheel rotation is
the most important for establishing the prevention of uneven tread wear. After rotation, adjust the tire in­
flation pressure to the air pressure recommended on
the decal located on the left door face.
Refer to Group 22—Tires And Wheels for the rec­
ommended method of tire/wheel rotation.

rial surrounds each mounting hole. Excess material
can easily be wiped off. Components should be
torqued in place within 15 minutes. The use of a lo­ cating dowel is recommended during assembly to pre­
vent smearing the material off location.

ENGINE PERFORMANCE
To provide best vehicle performance and lowest ve­
hicle emissions, it is most important that the tune-up
be done accurately. Use the specifications listed on
the Vehicle Emission Control Information label found on the engine compartment hood.
(1) Test cranking amperage draw (refer to Group

8B,
Battery/Starter/Generator Service for the proper
procedures).
(2) Tighten the intake manifold bolts (refer to
Group 11, Exhaust System and Intake Manifold for
the proper specifications). (3) Perform cylinder compression test:
(a) Check engine oil level and add oil, if neces­
sary.
(b) Drive the vehicle until engine reaches normal
operating temperature. (c) Select a route free from traffic and other
forms of congestion, observe all traffic laws and
briskly accelerate through the gears several times. The higher engine speed may help clean out valve seat deposits which can prevent accurate compres­
sion readings.

CAUTION:
DO NOT
overspeed
the
engine.
(d) Remove all spark plugs from engine. As
spark plugs are being removed, check electrodes for
abnormal firing indicators - fouled, hot, oily, etc.
Record cylinder number of spark plug for future
reference.
(e) Disconnect coil wire from distributor and se­
cure to good ground to prevent a spark from start­
ing a fire.
(f) Be sure throttle blades are fully open during
the compression check. (g) Insert compression gage adaptor into the
No.l spark plug hole. Crank engine until maxi­
mum pressure is reached on gauge. Record this
pressure as No.l cylinder pressure.
(h) Repeat Step 3g for all remaining cylinders.
(i) Compression should not be less than 689 kPa
(100 psi) and not vary more than 172 kPa (25 psi)
from cylinder to cylinder.
(j) If cylinder(s) have abnormally low compres­
sion pressures, repeat steps 3a through 3h. (k) If the same cylinder(s) repeat an abnormally
low reading, it could indicate the existence of a
problem in the cylinder.
The recommended compression pressures are
to be used only as a guide to diagnosing engine
problems. An engine should NOT be disassem­ bled to determine the cause of low compression
unless some malfunction is present. (4) Clean or replace spark plugs as necessary. Ad­
just gap (refer to Group 8D, Ignition System for gap adjustment and torque).
(5) Test resistance of spark plug cables (refer to
Group 8D, Ignition System.
(6) Inspect the primary wire. Test coil output volt­

age,
primary and secondary resistance. Replace parts as necessary (refer to Group 8D, Ignition System and
make necessary adjustment).
(7) Set ignition timing to specifications (refer to
Specification Label on engine compartment hood).
(8) Perform a combustion analysis.
(9) Test fuel pump for pressure and vacuum (refer
to Group 14, Fuel System for the proper specifica­

tions).

(10) Inspect air filter element (refer to Group 0,
Lubrication and Maintenance for the proper proce­
dure).

(11) Inspect crankcase ventilation system (refer to
Group 0, Lubrication and Maintenance for the proper
procedure).
(12) For emission controls refer to Group 25, Emis­
sion Controls System for service procedures.
(13) Inspect and adjust accessory belt drives (refer
to Group 7, Cooling System for the proper adjust­
ments).

(14) Road test vehicle as a final test.

H0NIN6
CYLINDER
BORES
Before honing, stuff plenty of clean shop towels un­
der the bores and over the crankshaft to keep abra­ sive materials from entering the crankshaft area.
(1) Used carefully, the Cylinder Bore Sizing Hone
C-823 equipped with 220 grit stones, is the best tool
for this job. In addition to deglazing, it will reduce
taper and out-of-round as well as removing light scuffing, scoring or scratches. Usually a few strokes
will clean up a bore and maintain the required lim­
its.

CAUTION:
DO NOT use rigid type
hones
to remove

cylinder
wall
glaze.

(2) Deglazing of the cylinder walls may be done if
the cylinder bore is straight and round. Use a cylin­
der surfacing hone, Honing Tool C-3501, equipped
with 280 grit stones (C-3501-3810). 20-60 strokes, de­
pending on the bore condition, will be sufficient to
provide a satisfactory surface. Using honing oil C-3501-3880 or a light honing oil available from ma­
jor oil distributors.

CAUTION:
DO NOT use engine or
transmission
oil, mineral
spirits
or
kerosene.

RN861
Fig. 3 Clearance Measurement
CONNECTING ROD BEARING CLEARANCE Engine connecting rod bearing clearances can be
determined by use of Plastigage, or equivalent. The
following is the recommended procedures for the use of Plastigage:
(1) Remove oil film from surface to be checked.
Plastigage is soluble in oil.
(2) Place a piece of Plastigage across the entire
width of the bearing cap shell (Fig. 2). Position the
Plastigage approximately 6.35 mm (1/4 inch) off cen­
ter and away from the oil holes. In addition, suspect areas can be checked by placing the Plastigage in the
suspect area. (3) The crankshaft must be turned until the con­
necting rod to be checked starts moving toward the
top of the engine. Only then should the rod cap with
Plastigage in place be assembled. Tighten the rod
cap nut to 61 Nnn (45 ft. lbs.) torque. DO NOT ro­
tate the crankshaft or the Plastigage may be smeared, giving inaccurate results. (4) Remove the bearing cap and compare the width
of the flattened Plastigage with the scale provided on
the package (Fig. 3). Plastigage generally comes in 2 scales (one scale is in inches and the other is a met­
ric scale). Locate the band closest to the same width.
This band shows the amount of clearance. Differ­ ences in readings between the ends indicate the
amount of taper present. Record all readings taken (refer to Engine Specifications). (5) Plastigage is available in a variety of clearance
ranges. The 0.025-0.076 mm (0.001-0.003 inch) range
is usually the most appropriate for checking engine
bearing clearances.
REPAIR DAMAGED OR WORN THREADS Damaged or worn threads can be repaired. Essen­
tially, this repair consists of:
• Drilling out worn or damaged threads. • Tapping the hole with a special Heli-Coil Tap, or
equivalent.
• Installing an insert into the tapped hole.
This brings the hole back to its original thread

size.

CAUTION:
Be
sure
that
the tapped holes maintain
the original
center
line.

Heli-Coil tools and inserts are readily available
from automotive parts jobbers.

HYDROSTATIC
LOCK
When an engine is suspected of hydrostatic lock
(regardless of what caused the problem), follow the
steps below. (1) Perform the Fuel Pressure Release Procedure
(refer to Group 14, Fuel System). (2) Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
(3) Inspect air cleaner, induction system and in­
take manifold to ensure system is dry and clear of
foreign material. (4) Place a shop towel around the spark plugs to
catch any fluid that may possibly be under pressure
in the cylinder head. Remove the plugs from the en­

gine.

CAUTION:
DO NOT use the starter motor to
rotate

the
crankshaft.
Severe
damage
could
occur.

(5) With all spark plugs removed, rotate the crank­
shaft using a breaker bar and socket.
(6) Identify the fluid in the cylinders (i.e. coolant,
fuel, oil, etc.).
(7) Make sure all fluid has been removed from the
cylinders. (8) Repair engine or components as necessary to
prevent this problem from occurring again.
(9) Squirt engine oil into the cylinders to lubricate
the walls. This will prevent damage on restart.
(10) Install new spark plugs. Tighten the spark
plugs to 41 N#m (30 ft. lbs.) torque. (11) Drain engine oil. Remove and discard the oil
filter.
(12) Install the drain plug. Tighten the plug to 34
N-m (25 ft. lbs.) torque.
(13) Install a new oil filter.
(14) Fill engine crankcase with the specified
amount and grade of oil (refer to Group 0, Lubrica­
tion and Maintenance). (15) Connect the negative cable to the battery.
(16) Start the engine and check for any leaks.
