7. Remove the jumper cables in the reverse order of their connection
(i.e. negative cable ground connection first, etc.)
Make sure the vehicle is level to assure an accurate fuel level reading. The
fuel tank is capable of holding 35.1 gallons (132,8 liters) of diesel fuel.
Fuel Types
When operating at temperatures above 32° F (0° C) use standard #2 diesel
fuel. When operating at temperatures below 32° F (0° C) use a blend of #1
& #2 diesel fuels, most commonly known as “winterized” #2 diesel. Use
ASTM #2 diesel fuel with a minimum Cetane rating of 40. #2 diesel fuel
gives the best fuel economy and performance under most operating
conditions. Fuels with Cetane ratings higher than 40 may be needed in
higher altitudes or extremely low ambient temperatures to prevent misfiring
and excessive smoke.
Fuel Cap
(Figure 33)
The locking fuel cap is conveniently located on the left side of the vehicle.
The fuel cap meets EPA standards, and a fuel key must be used to unlock
the fuel cap, however the key is not required to lock the fuel cap.
Refueling
WARNING
