D. Engine Fuel Level Gauge
The fuel reading will vary when cornering, accelerating, braking, and climbing or
descending hills. The fuel tank has a capacity of 60 gallons.
E. DC Voltmeter Gauge
This gauge displays the performance of the chassis DC system, especially the batteries
and alternator. With the engine off and the key switch ON it should read approximately 12
Volts. It should read approximately 13 Volts with the engine running.
F. Radio
Your AM/FM/CD radio works similarly to the system in your automobile. Please refer to
the manufacturer's manual for detailed radio operations.
G. Oil Pressure Gauge
When the engine is running, the oil pressure gauge shows the engine oil pressure in psi*
(pounds per square inch).
Oil pressure may vary with engine speed, outside temperature, oil viscosity, etc. Readings
above the low pressure zone indicate the normal operating range. A reading in the low
pressure zone may be caused by a dangerously low level of oil or other problems. When
the engine is idling, a lower reading is normal. Please consult your Workhorse owner's
manual for more details.
*Canadian vehicles are measured in kPa (kiloPascals).
WARNING: If the oil pressure drops significantly below 35 PSI while driving or 10
H. Engine Coolant Temperature
The normal operating temperature for the engine is 180º to 210º Fahrenheit. Overheating
can occur because of insufficient coolant or a problem in the cooling system. It can also
occur in hot weather with slow or stop-and-go driving. If the needle registers in the red
area on the gauge, pull over, stop the vehicle, shift into PARK, and turn off the engine as
soon as possible. If problems persist, check the coolant level.
