Scheduled Maintenance

For information regarding routine scheduled maintenance such
as replacement of oil, filters, coolant, belts, belt tensioners, etc,
as well as inspection and adjustment of items such as valve lash,
etc. refer to the Engine Operation and Maintenance Manual
supplied with the vehicle.

Air Induction System

Perform a complete inspection of the air induction system.
Disassemble the joints of each aluminum component and
inspect for salt build up and chlorine that can cause aluminum
particles to flake off and enter the engine combustion chambers.
If corrosion is present (usually appears at the pipe connections),
use a wire brush to clean the inside of the pipes and inside
the rubber hoses. Clean all components thoroughly before
reassembly.
If the intake pipes are pitted at the joint ends, silicone RTV may
be used to seal the joints. Make sure that no excess sealant is
on the inside of the pipe that can be pulled into the engine. If the
service condition of the pipes, hoses, or clamps is questionable,
replace them.
• Check for loose hoses and clamps.
• Check for ruptured or collapsed hoses.
• Check air cleaner housing for cracks.
