Underbody Inspection
Corrosive materials used for ice, snow removal, and
dust control can collect on the underbody. If these
materials are not removed, accelerated corrosion (rust)
can occur on underbody parts such as fuel lines, frame,
floor pan, and exhaust system. At least every spring,
flush these materials from the underbody with plain
water. Take care to clean well any areas where mud
and other debris can collect. Sediment packed in closed
areas of the frame should be loosened before being
flushed.
Engine Cover Check
Check that the cab's engine cover and seal, if the
vehicle has one, are not torn or damaged. Be sure that
the cover is clamped down firmly to the floor.
