INTRODUCTION: REPAIR INSTRUCTION: PRECAUTION - Continued

11. FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH CATALYTIC CONVERTER

CAUTION:
If a large amount of unburned gasoline or gasoline vapors flow into the converter, it may cause overheating and create a fire hazard. To prevent this, observe the following precautions.

(a) Use only unleaded gasoline.

(b) Avoid idling the engine for more than 20 minutes.

(c) When performing spark jump tests:

(1) Perform a spark jump test only when absolutely necessary. Perform this test as rapidly as possible.

(2) While testing, never race the engine.

(d) Avoid a prolonged engine compression measurement. Engine compression measurements must be performed as rapidly as possible.

(e) Do not run the engine when the fuel tank is nearly empty. This may cause the engine to misfire and create an extra load on the converter.

12. WHEN TOWING FULL-TIME 4WD VEHICLES

(a) Use one of the methods shown below to tow the vehicle.

(1) If the vehicle has trouble in the chassis and drive train, use method 1 (flat bed truck).





NOTICE:
Do not use any towing method other than those shown above.
