STARTING AND OPERATING
32
The following procedures can be used
to confirm that the locking differential
is functioning properly:
(1) Position the vehicle so that one
wheel is on a dry paved surface and
the other on ice, snow, mud, etc.
Drive the vehicle, and observe the
operation of the locking differential.
The vehicle should not become
stuck if the differential is function-
ing properly.
(2) Depress the accelerator pedal
gradually, and then when traction is
good, depress it forcefully. If the
vehicle accelerates well, the differ-
ential is functioning properly.
!
CAUTION:
o Never start the engine with the
gearshift lever placed in the for-
ward or reverse while one of the
rear wheels is jacked up and the
other in contact with the ground;
doing so may cause the vehicle
to jump forward.
o If one of the rear wheels begins
to spin in mud, snow, etc., the
vehicle can sometimes be driven
out by depressing the accelera-
tor pedal further; however, avoid
running the engine continuously
at high rpm because doing so
could damage the locking differ-
ential.
LIMITED-SLIP DIFFEREN-
TIAL
D190A02P-GAT
(Truck)(If installed)
A limited-slip differential, if equipped,
is for the rear wheel differential only.
The features of this limited-slip differ-
ential are described below:
Just as with a conventional differential,
the wheel on one side is allowed to turn
at a different speed from the wheel on
the other side when the vehicle is
cornering. The difference between the
limited-slip differential and a conven-
tional differential is that if the wheel on
one side of the vehicle loses traction, a
greater amount of torque is applied to
the rear wheel on the other side to
improve traction.
NOTE:
In a stationary position, the L.S.D
will operate when the torque differ-
ence between the rear right wheel
and the left wheel is from 5Kgf·m to
9 Kgf·m.
