See the Chassis Operator's Manual in the Owner's Informa-
tion Package for chassis fuel recommendations. The genera-
tor is designed to run on the same fuel as the chassis. Con-
sult the generator operating instructions for special cautions
about maintenance with different types of fuels.
Fuel fills are located on the left and right side of the motor
home just behind the front wheels. Modem fuel systems may
build up vapor pressure within the tank as the fuel warms
during use or hot weather.
Replace lost or damaged fuel fill caps witb caps of the same
design which are available from your Fleetwood motor home
dealer.
Clean up fuel spills immediately. Raw fuel spilled on the
motor home could damage the exterior finish, and is a seri-
ous fire hazard .
Cummins, the engine manufacturer, recommends the use of
ASTM No.2 diesel fuel. At operating temperatures below 32
. degrees, acceptable performance can be obtained by using
blends of No.2 and No. 1 diesel fuels. The use of lighter
fuels can reduce fuel economy.
Also, you should be familiar with the "summer" and "win-
ter" diesel fuel blends formulated specifically for hot and
cold climates. If you have a "summer" blend fuel in a cold
climate, additives can be added to the fuel tank to "winter-
ize" the fuel.
The fuel-water separator must be drained daily. See the
Maintenance section for fuel-water separator draining
procedures.
