MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Fuel Filter Replacement
Replace the engine fuel filter every.
Gasoline Engine : 60,000km (36,000 miles)
Diesel Engine : 45,000km (24,000 miles)
Spark Plug Replacement Replace spark plugs with same type.
Type : BOSCH : F8DC4
BERU : 14F-8DU4
Champion : C11YCC
Gap : 0.8 ± 0.1 mm
Spark Plug Wire Replacement Clean wires and inspect them for burns, cracks or other damage. Check the wire boot fit at the Distributor and at the spark plugs. Replace the wires as needed. Brake System Service Check the disc brake pads or the drum brake linings.
Check the pad and the lining thickness carefully. Tire and Wheel Inspection and Rotation
Check the tires for abnormal wear or damage. To equalize wear and obtain maximum tire life, rotate the tires. If irregular or premature wear exists, check the wheel alignment and check for damaged wheels. Whilethe tires and wheels are removed, inspect the brakes.
NORMAL VEHICLE USE The maintenance instructions contained in the maintenance schedule are based on the assumption that the vehicle will be used for the following reasons:
To carry passengers and cargo within the limitation
of the tire inflation prassure. Refer to “Tire and Wheel” in section 2E.
To be driven on reasonable road surfaces and withinlegal operating limits.
EXPLANATION OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE SERVICES The services listed in the maintenance schedule are
further explained below. When the following maintenance services are performed, make sure all the parts are replaced and all the necessary repairs are done before driving the vehicle. Always use the proper fluid and lubricants. Engine Oil and Oil Filter Change Always use above the API SH grade or recommended engine oil. Engine Oil Viscosity Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weather operation. Lower viscosity engine oils can provide better fuel economy and cold
weather performance; however, higher temperatureweather conditions require higher viscosity engine oils for satisfactory lubrication. Using oils of any viscosity other than those viscosities recommended could result in engine damage. Cooling System Service Drain, flush and refill the system with new coolant. Refer to “Recommended Fluids And Lubricants” in this section. Air Cleaner Element Replacement
Clean the air cleaner element every.
Gasoline Engine : 15,000km (10,000 miles)
Diesel Engine : 10,000km (6,000 miles)
Replace the air cleaner element every .
Gasoline Engine : 60,000km (36,000 miles)
Diesel Engine : 30,000km (18,000 miles)
Replace the air cleaner more often under dusty conditions.
