Owner's Manual
NOTICE:
If
there is water in your diesel fuel and the weather is warm or
humid, fungus and bacteria can grow in the fuel. They can
damage your fuel system. You’ll need a diesel fuel biocide
to
sterilize your fuel system. Your dealer can advise
you
if you ever
need this.
If
your fuel tank needs to be purged to remove water, see your
dealer or
a
qualified technician. Improper purging can damage
your fuel system.
Running
Out
of
Fuel (Diesel Engines)
If
the engine stalls and you think that you’ve run
out
of
fuel,
do
this:
First, open the fuel
filter air bleed valve.
If there is air, then
you
are probably
out
of
fuel.
To
restart your engine:
1.
If
you’re parked on
a
level surface, add at least two gallons of fuel.
However, if you’re parked
on
a slope,
you
may
need to add
up
to five
gallons
of
fuel.
10
to
15
seconds
to
crank (but not start) your engine. Keep doing this
until
you
can
just
see some clear fuel
at
the air bleed valve.
(If,
during
this step, the engine starts, turn the ignition off and close the valve
before restart.)
2.
With the air bleed valve open, turn your ignition key
to
“Start”
for
6-9
