A clogged filter can limit the speed at which the
vehicle may be driven, damage the emission
system and cause hard starting. If an exces-
sive amount of foreign matter accumulates in
the fuel tank, the filter may require replace-
ment more frequently.
After installing a new filter, run the engine for
several minutes, and check for leaks at the
connections. Fuel filters should be installed by
trained technicians.

Ventilation Hoses Ventilation Hoses Ventilation Hoses Ventilation Hoses Ventilation Hoses
Inspect the surface of hoses for evidence of
heat and/or mechanical damage. Hard and
brittle rubber, cracking, tears, cuts, abra-
sions, and excessive swelling indicate dete-
rioration. Particular attention should be paid to
examine those hose surfaces nearest to high
heat sources, such as the exhaust manifold.
Inspect the hose routing to assure that the
hoses do not come in contact with any heat
source, sharp edges or moving component
which might cause heat damage or mechani-
cal wear. Inspect all hose connections, such
as clamps and couplings, to make sure they
are secure, and that no leaks are present.
Hoses should be replaced immediately if there
is any evidence of deterioration or damage.
