Fuel Conservation Practices
• Cold engines consume excess fuel. Utilize heat
from the jacket water system and the exhaust
system, when possible. Keep cooling system
components clean and keep cooling system
components in good repair. Never operate the
engine without a water temperature regulator. All
of these items will help maintain operating
temperatures.
