An emergency like this requires close attention and
a quick decision. If you are holding the steering
wheel at the recommended 9 and 3 o’clock
positions, you can turn it a full 180 degrees very
quickly without removing either hand. But you have
to act fast, steer quickly, and just as quickly
straighten the wheel once you have avoided
the object.
The fact that such emergency situations are always
possible is a good reason to practice defensive
driving at all times and wear safety belts properly.
Off-Road Recovery
You may find that your right wheels have dropped
off the edge of a road onto the shoulder while you
are driving.
If the level of the shoulder is only slightly below the
pavement, recovery should be fairly easy. Ease off
the accelerator and then, if there is nothing in the
way, steer so that your vehicle straddles the edge
of the pavement. You can turn the steering wheel
up to one-quarter turn until the right front tire
contacts the pavement edge. Then turn your
steering wheel to go straight down the roadway.

3. Remove the rubber
cap from the rear
of the chamber.
4. Put the release stud, nut and flat washer into
the chamber.
5. Turn the stud clockwise a quarter of a turn.6. Turn the stud nut
clockwise several
turns to release
the brakes.
Follow the same
procedure to
release the other
brake or brakes.
7. At the repair facility, apply air pressure of at
least 70 psi (480 kPa) to the brake chambers,
either from an external air supply or the
vehicle’s air system.
8. Turn the stud nut counterclockwise several
turns. Remove the stud from the chamber.
9. Replace the stud and washer and tighten the
nut into the side of the chamber.
10. Replace the rubber cap.

5. Open the fuel filter
vent valve by turning
the screw
counterclockwise
several full turns.
6. Repeatedly push
down on the fuel
filter primer
pump with the palm
of your hand. Let
the pump return
upward between
pushes.7. Operate the priming pump until a small
amount of fuel seeps from the vent valve.
When you see the fuel, the filter is now full of
fuel and the system should be primed.
8. Close the vent valve.
9. Clean any fuel which accumulated on the fuel
filter.
10. Start the engine and let it idle for a few
minutes.
11. Check the filter for leaks.

Priming the 7.8L Isuzu 6H Diesel Engine
If your vehicle is equipped with the 7.8L Isuzu 6H
diesel engine, use the following procedure to
prime the engine:
1. Make sure there is fuel in the fuel tank.
2. Make sure the specified fuel filter is properly
installed.
3. Make sure the fuel lines are securely
connected.
4. Make sure the fuel filter is cool to the touch.
5. Use a clean cloth to remove dirt and oil
from the fuel filter head and breather valve.6. Use the palm of your hand to repeatedly
press and release the plunger (1) at the
top of the fuel filter priming pump. Continue
until the plunger resistance becomes firm. This
may take from 20 to 100 times, depending
upon fuel tank location.
7. Turn the fuel filter breather valve screw (2)
counterclockwise several turns to open the
breather valve.
8. Use the palm of your hand to repeatedly
press and release the plunger (1) at the
top of the fuel filter priming pump until fuel
begins to seep from the breather valve.
9. Tighten the fuel filter breather screw (2) to the
specified torque, 4.9
Y(43 in. lbs).
10. Use the palm of your hand to press and
release the plunger (1) at the top of the
fuel filter priming pump about 20 more times.
This sends fuel to the engine.
11. Use a clean cloth to remove any fuel from the
fuel filter and surrounding area.
12. Start the engine and allow it to idle for a
few minutes.
13. Check the fuel filter for leakage.

Fuel Filter Replacement
If you want to change the diesel engine fuel filter
yourself, here is how to do it:
{CAUTION:
Diesel fuel is ammable. It could start a
re if something ignites it, and you could
be burned. Do not let it get on hot engine
parts, and keep matches or other ignition
sources away.
First, drain any water from the filter by following
the water draining procedure earlier in this section.
Your vehicle’s engine should be off until the end
of this procedure.
If your vehicle has the 6.6L engine, the fuel filter is
located in the engine compartment on the
driver’s side of the vehicle. If your vehicle has
either the 7.2L or 7.8L engine, the fuel filters are
located in the engine compartment on the
driver’s side of the vehicle, and on the driver’s
side frame rail in front of the fuel tank.
1. Apply the parking brake.2. Unplug the water
sensor wire
connected to the fuel
filter and unscrew
the filter element.
3. Remove the filter element. If there is any dirt
on the filter sealing surface, clean it off.
Remove and reuse the water sensor float
switch located on the bottom of the fuel filter.
4. Install the new filter element.
5. Reinstall and tighten the filter container and
reconnect the water sensor wire to the filter.
6. Use the fuel filter priming procedure earlier in
this section to prime the fuel filter.
7. Tighten the air bleed valve by turning it
clockwise until hand-tight.
8. Start your engine and let it idle for
five minutes. Check your fuel filter and air
bleed valve for leaks.

Fuels in Foreign Countries
If you plan on driving in another country outside the
United States or Canada, the proper fuel may be
hard to find. Never use leaded gasoline or any other
fuel not recommended in the previous text on fuel.
Costly repairs caused by use of improper fuel would
not be covered by your warranty.
To check the fuel availability, ask an auto club, or
contact a major oil company that does business
in the country where you will be driving.
Filling the Tank
{CAUTION:
Fuel vapor is highly ammable. It burns
violently, and that can cause very bad
injuries. Do not smoke if you are near
fuel or refueling your vehicle. Keep
sparks, ames and smoking materials
away from fuel.
The fuel cap can be on either or both sides of
your vehicle depending on option content.
To take off the cap, turn it slowly counterclockwise.
Fuel caps for all
gasoline applications,
and all diesel between
frame rail fuel tank
applicationsFuel caps for all side
mounted diesel
applications
264

{CAUTION:
If you get fuel on yourself and then
something ignites it, you could be badly
burned. Fuel can spray out on you if you
open the fuel cap too quickly. This spray
can happen if your tank is nearly full, and is
more likely in hot weather. Open the fuel
cap slowly and wait for any “hiss” noise to
stop. Then unscrew the cap all the way.
When you put the cap back on, turn it clockwise
until it is tight.
Notice:If you need a new fuel cap, be sure to
get the right type. Your dealer can get one
for you. If you get the wrong type, it may not
t properly. This may cause your malfunction
indicator lamp to light and may damage
your fuel tank and emissions system. See
Malfunction Indicator Lamp on page 174.If you have dual tanks, fill the driver’s side tank, or
forward tank, first. The fuel gage will give better
readings this way. Your gage will show the
total fuel left in both tanks.
If your vehicle is a C4/C5 model and you have
dual tanks, the engine must be off when refueling
or the fuel transfer system may become
inoperable.
If you have a single tank with dual fillers, where
there is a filler on each side of the vehicle, do not
attempt to fill the tank through both fillers at the
same time. Also, do not fill the tank with both caps
removed, as this may result in over-filling the
tank and fuel spillage.
