Key Lock Cylinders
Lubricate the key lock cylinders with the lubricant
specified in Part
D.
Body Lubrication
Lubricate all body door hinges. Also lubricate all hinges
and latches, including those for the hood, rear
compartment, console doors and any folding seat
hardware.
Part D tells you what to use. More frequent
lubrication may be required when exposed to a corrosive
environment.
Starter Switch
1. Before you start, be sure you have enough room
around the vehicle.
2. Firmly apply both the parking brake (see ‘Tarking
Brake” in the Index if necessary) and the regular
brake.
NOTE:
Do not use the accelerator pedal, and be
ready to turn
off the engine immediately if it starts.
3. On automatic transmission vehicles, try to start the
engine in each gear. The starter should work only in
PARK
(P) or NEUTRAL (N). If the starter works in
any other position, your vehicle needs service.
On manual transmission vehicles, put the shift lever
in NEUTRAL (N), push the clutch down halfway
and
try to start the engine. The starter should work
only when
the clutch is pushed down all the way to
the floor. If the starter works when the clutch isn’t
pushed all the way down, your vehicle needs service.
Steering Column Lock
While parked, and with the parking brake set, try to turn
the key to LOCK in each shift lever position.
With an automatic transmission, the key should turn
to LOCK only when the shift lever is in PARK
(P).
With a manual transmission, the key should
turn to LOCK only when
the shift lever is in
REVERSE (R).
Page 355 of 388
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine On vehicles with a key release button, try to turn the key
to LOCK without pressing the button. The key should
turn
to LOCK only with the key button depressed.
On all vehicles. the key should come out only in LOCK.
Parking Brake and Automatic Transmission PARK
(P) Mechanism Check
Park on a fairly steep hill, with the vehicle facing
downhill. Keeping your foot
on the regular brake, set the
parking brake.
To check the parking brake: With the engine running
and transmission in NEUTRAL
(N), slowly remove
foot pressure from the regular brake pedal. Do this
until the vehicle is held by the parking brake only.
0 To check the PARK (P) mechanism’s holding ability:
Shift to PARK
(P). Then release all brakes.
Underbody Flushing
At least every spring, use plain water to flush any
corrosive materials from the underbody. Take care
to
clean thoroughly any areas where mud and other debris
can collect.
