Drive Belt; Engine Air Cleaner Filter - Dodge 2007 DH Ram Owner's Manual

Disposing Of Used Engine Oil And Filter
Care should be taken in disposing of the used engine
fluids from your vehicle. Used fluids, indiscriminately
discarded, can present a problem to the environment.
Contact your local dealer, service station, or governmen-
tal agency for advice on recycling programs and where
used fluids and filters can be safely discarded in your
area.

Drive Belt

Inspection
Check the belt for intersecting cracks.
• Transverse (across the belt width) cracks are accept-
able.
• Longitudinal (direction of belt length) cracks that
intersect with transverse cracks are NOT acceptable.
Replace the belt if it has unacceptable cracks, is frayed or
has pieces of material missing.
MAINTAINING YOUR VEHICLE
The engine speed sensor, located near the damper, should
be inspected for damage if a belt is frayed.

Engine Air Cleaner Filter

CAUTION!
All air entering the engine intake must be filtered.
The abrasive particles in unfiltered air will cause
rapid wear to engine components.
The air filter housing on your Diesel Ram is equipped
with a Filter Minder™. This is an air flow restriction
gauge that will indicate when the filter element needs to
be replaced.
