ENGINE OIL CHANGE
WARNING: NEW OR USED ENGINE OIL CAN BE
IRRITATING TO THE SKIN. AVOID PROLONGED OR
REPEATED SKIN CONTACT WITH ENGINE OIL.
CONTAMINANTS IN USED ENGINE OIL, CAUSED BY
INTERNAL COMBUSTION, CAN BE HAZARDOUS TO
YOUR HEALTH. THOROUGHLY WASH EXPOSED
SKIN WITH SOAP AND WATER. DO NOT WASH
SKIN WITH GASOLINE, DIESEL FUEL, THINNER, OR
SOLVENTS, HEALTH PROBLEMS CAN RESULT. DO
NOT POLLUTE, DISPOSE OF USED ENGINE OIL
PROPERLY. CONTACT YOUR DEALER OR GOVERN-
MENT AGENCY FOR LOCATION OF COLLECTION
CENTER IN YOUR AREA.
Run engine until achieving normal operating tem-
perature.
(1) Position the vehicle on a level surface and turn
engine off.
(2) Remove oil fill cap.
(3) Hoist vehicle. Refer to Hoisting and Jacking
Recommendations.
(4) Place a suitable drain pan under crankcase
drain.
(5) Remove drain plug from crankcase and allow
oil to drain into pan (Fig. 5). Inspect drain plug
threads for stretching or other damage. Replace
drain plug if damaged.
(6) Install drain plug in crankcase.
(7) Lower vehicle and fill crankcase with specified
type and amount of engine oil.
(8) Install oil fill cap.
(9) Start engine and inspect for leaks.
(10) Stop engine and inspect oil level.
ENGINE OIL
ENGINE OIL QUALITY
Use only oils conforming to API (American Petro-
leum Institute) quality SG/CD, or CCMC G4. Use
only Diesel engine oil meeting standardMIL-2104C
or API service classificationSG/CD or CCMM PD1.
OIL VISCOSITY
Grade 15W-40 is recommended for temperatures
between +35ÉC to ±10ÉC (95ÉF to 14ÉF). Low viscosity
oils must have the proper API quality or the CCMC
G5 designation. Low viscosity oils are preferred when
minimum temperatures consistently fall below ±12ÉC
(10ÉF).
ENGINE OIL FILTER CHANGE
(1) Position a drain pan under the oil filter.
(2) Using a suitable oil filter wrench loosen filter.
(3) Rotate the oil filter counterclockwise to remove
it from the oil filter base (Fig. 6).
(4) When filter separates from base, tip gasket end
upward to minimize oil spill. Remove filter from vehi-
cle.
(5) With a cloth, wipe clean the gasket sealing sur-
face of oil and grime.
OIL FILTER INSTALLATION
(1) Lightly lubricate oil filter gasket with engine
oil.
(2) Thread filter onto the base. When gasket
makes contact with sealing surface, hand tighten fil-
ter one full turn, do not over tighten.

SERVICE PROCEDURES (Continued)

(3) Add oil, verify crankcase oil level and start
engine. Inspect filter area for oil leaks.
TIMING PROCEDURE
CAUTION: If a timing gear is removed you must
loosen the rocker arm supports before rotating the
crankshaft or camshaft. This will prevent the valves
hitting the pistons.
For the engine components to be in proper timing
order, the timing gear marks (dots) must be aligned
as shown in (Fig. 7). To facilitate reassembly, align
the timing marks as shown in (Fig. 7), or mark the
timing gear positions before removal of any marked
gears or gear driven component(s).
VALVE AND SEAT REFACING
VALVE REFACING
(1) Use a valve refacing machine to reface the
intake and exhaust valves to the specified angle.
(2) After refacing, a margin of at least 4.52-4.49
mm (.178-.177 inch) must remain (Fig. 8). If the mar-
gin is less than 4.49 mm (.177 inch), the valve must
be replaced.
VALVE SEAT REFACING
(1) Install a pilot of the correct size in the valve
guide bore. Reface the valve seat to the specified
angle with a good dressing stone. Remove only
enough metal to provide a smooth finish.
(2) Use tapered stones to obtain the specified seat
width when required.

(9) Momentarily touch the other end of this
jumper wire to the negative terminal of the battery
for no more than 4 seconds.
(10) Place a rag or towel below the fuel line at the
quick connect to the rail.
(11) Disconnect the quick connect fitting to the
rail. Refer to Quick-Connect Fittings in this section.
(12) Return the fuel pump relay to the PDC.
(13) One or more Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's)
may have been stored in the PCM memory due to the
fuel pump relay removal. The DRB scan tool must be
used to erase a DTC. Refer to group 25, On-Board
Diagnostics.
HOSES AND CLAMPS
Inspect all hose connections (clamps and quick con-
nect fittings) for completeness and leaks. Replace
cracked, scuffed, or swelled hoses. Replace hoses that
rub against other vehicle components or show sign of
wear.
Fuel injected vehicles use specially constructed
hoses. When replacing hoses, only use hoses marked
EFM/EFI.
When installing hoses, ensure that they are routed
away from contact with other vehicle components
that could rub against them and cause failure. Avoid
contact with clamps or other components that cause
abrasions or scuffing. Ensure that rubber hoses are
properly routed and avoid heat sources.
The hose clamps have rolled edges to prevent the
clamp from cutting into the hose. Only use clamps
that are original equipment or equivalent. Other
types of clamps may cut into the hoses and cause
high pressure fuel leaks. Tighten hose clamps to 1
N´m (10 in. lbs.) torque.
QUICK-CONNECT FITTINGS
REMOVAL
When disconnecting a quick-connect fitting, the
retainer will remain on the fuel tube nipple.
WARNING: RELEASE FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE
BEFORE DISCONNECTING A QUICK-CONNECT FIT-
TINGS. REFER TO THE FUEL PRESSURE RELEASE
PROCEDURE.
(1) Disconnect negative cable from battery.
(2) Perform Fuel Pressure Release Procedure.
Refer to the Fuel Pressure Release Procedure in this
section.
(3) Squeeze retainer tabs together and pull fuel
tube/quick-connect fitting assembly off of fuel tube
nipple. The retainer will remain on fuel tube.
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Never install a quick-connect fitting
without the retainer being either on the fuel tube or
already in the quick-connect fitting. In either case,
ensure the retainer locks securely into the quick-
connect fitting by firmly pulling on fuel tube and fit-
ting to ensure it is secured.
(1) Using a clean lint free cloth, clean the fuel tube
nipple and retainer.
(2) Prior to connecting the fitting to the fuel tube,
coat the fuel tube nipple with clean 30 weight engine
oil.
(3) Push the quick-connect fitting over the fuel
tube until theretainer seats and a click is heard.
(4) The plastic quick-connect fitting has windows
in the sides of the casing. When the fitting com-
pletely attaches to the fuel tube, the retainer locking
ears and the fuel tube shoulder are visible in the
windows. If they are not visible, the retainer was not
properly installed (Fig. 12).Do not rely upon the
audible click to confirm a secure connection.
CAUTION: When using the ASD Fuel System Test,
the Auto Shutdown (ASD) Relay remains energized
for either 7 minutes, until the test is stopped, or
until the ignition switch is turned to the Off posi-
tion.
(5) Use the DRB scan tool ASD Fuel System Test
to pressurize the fuel system. Check for leaks.
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
FUEL FILTER
The fuel filter mounts to the top of the fuel tank.
The inlet and outlet tubes are permanently attached
to the filter (Fig. 13).

SERVICE PROCEDURES (Continued)

WARNING: RELEASE FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE
BEFORE DISCONNECTING QUICK-CONNECT FIT-
TINGS AT FUEL FILTER. REFER TO THE FUEL
PRESSURE RELEASE PROCEDURE.

remove filter from tank.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install fuel filter to tank.
(2) The fuel supply (to filter) tube, return tube (to
pump module) and fuel supply (to chassis fuel line)
are permanently attached the fuel filter. The ends of
the fuel supply and return tubes have different size
quick-connect fittings.
(3) Apply a light coating of clean 30 weight engine
oil to the fuel filter nipples. Install fuel tubes. Refer
to Fuel Tubes and Quick-Connect Fittings in this sec-
tion.
FUEL PUMP MODULE
WARNING: RELEASE FUEL SYSTEM PRESSURE
BEFORE SERVICING FUEL SYSTEM COMPONENTS.
SERVICE VEHICLES IN WELL VENTILATED AREAS
AND AVOID IGNITION SOURCES. NEVER SMOKE
WHILE SERVICING THE VEHICLE.
WARNING: THE FUEL RESERVOIR OF THE FUEL
PUMP MODULE DOES NOT EMPTY OUT WHEN THE
TANK IS DRAINED. THE FUEL IN THE RESERVOIR
WILL SPILL OUT WHEN THE MODULE IS
REMOVED.
REMOVAL
(1) Remove fuel filler cap and perform Fuel Sys-
tem Pressure Release procedure.
(2) Disconnect negative cable from battery.
(3) Insert fuel siphon hose into fuel filler neck and
push it into the tank.
(4) Drain fuel tank dry into holding tank or a
properly labeledGASOLINEsafety container.
(5) Raise vehicle on hoist.
(6) Use a transmission jack to support the fuel
tank. Remove bolts from fuel tank straps. Lower
tank slightly.
(7) Clean area around fuel tank module and tank
to keep dirt and foreign material out of tank.
(8) Disconnect fuel lines from fuel pump module by
depressing quick connect retainers with thumb and
fore finger (Fig. 14).
(9) Slide fuel pump module electrical connector
lock to unlock.
(10) Push down on connector retainer (Fig. 15) and
pull connector off module.
