1995 CHEVROLET CORVETTE fuel reserve

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Engine Power Switch (ZR-1)
The LT5 engine in your
ZR-1 has two sets of
intake runners and fuel
injectors. The primary set
can be run alone for
normal engine power, or
both sets can be used for
full engine power.
Full power gives you extra power for highway touring
and off-road sports use and reserve power for passing.
With normal power, you’ll notice less engine and
exhaust noise. To
change the power setting, put your engine power key
into the switch. Turn the key to the setting
you want and
let go. The key will return to the center position.
Your ZR-1 is able to run at full power under the
following conditions:
0 The engine coolant and oil temperatures are greater
than
68°F (20°C) but less than 302°F (150°C).
System voltage is greater than ten volts.
The SERVICE ENGINE SOON light is not on.
You can switch the setting at engine speeds up to
4,000 rpm. When you select the FULL setting, a light
near the switch will come on.
It should go out when you
change back to the NORMAL setting. When you turn
the ignition off, the setting will go back to normal
power.

Your fuel gauge shows about how much fuel is in your
tank. The bars light up when the ignition is on or, if the
ignition is off, when
you turn on your parking lamps.
When the display
is down to the last two bars,
RESERVE will appear next to the gauge.
Here
are three concerns some owners have had about the
fuel gauge. All these situations
are normal and do not
indicate that anything is wrong with the fuel gauge.
At the gas station, the fuel pump shuts off before the
gauge reads
FULL (F).

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Run your engine only as long as you must. This saves
fuel. When you run the engine, make it go a little faster
than just idle. That is, push the accelerator slightly. This
uses less fuel for the heat that you get and it keeps the
~ battery charged. You will need a well-charged battery to
restart the vehicle, and possibly for signaling later on
with your headlights. Let the heater run for awhile.
Then, shut the engine off and close the window almost
all the way to preserve the heat. Start the engine again
and repeat this only when you feel really uncomfortable
from the cold. But do it as little as possible. Preserve the
fuel as long as you can. To help keep warm, you can get
out of the vehicle and do some fairly vigorous exercises
every half hour or
so until help comes.
