Fuel Pro Fuel Filter; Exhaust; Diesel Fuel Contamination; Lubricant Additives - MCi J4500 Operator's Manual

Do not smoke while handling fuel.

Diesel Fuel Contamination

Water is the most common contaminant. It can be
introduced through poor maintenance (loose or open
fuel tank cap), a contaminated fuel supply or
condensation.
A fuel filter with water separator is located on the
curbside of the engine. Inspect the bowl for water
accumulation and drain as required. The auxiliary
heater also has a fuel filter. Inspect and drain regularly.

Lubricant Additives

Do not use any lubricant additives.
Failure to use CJ-4 engine oil in 2016 EPA
engines will reduce component life.

FUEL PRO FUEL FILTER

The Fuel Pro extends filter change intervals and
features a clear cover that provides visual identification
of the fuel level ( Figure 55 ). When the fuel level
reaches the change filter line on the filter cartridge, the
element should be replaced at the next scheduled
maintenance interval.

EXHAUST

Exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide,
which can cause unconsciousness and
death. Strictly follow safety guidelines:
1. Do not inhale exhaust fumes.
2. If you suspect that exhaust fumes are
entering the coach, discharge passengers
and do not drive the coach. Have the cause
determined and corrected immediately.
3. The exhaust system, body and ventilation
system must be inspected and maintained
regularly.
4. Keep the tailpipe area clear of snow and
other material.
5. The exhaust system and coach body must
be inspected any time the exhaust system or
coach are damaged, or when the exhaust
system sounds different.
6. Keep the engine air inlet grille clear of
snow, dirt and other obstructions.
7. Do not run the engine inside confined
areas without using an exhaust removal
system.
8. Do not run the engine while parked in
narrow alleys.
9. If the coach must be parked with the
engine running for an extended period and is
in an unconfined area, turn the HVAC system
ON.
