Lubricants
In this section you will find the basic
information you need to do the routine
lubrication your vehicle requires.
Of course you will want to schedule service
more frequently if you are operating under
severe conditions such as extreme heat or
cold, with very heavy loads, off-road, etc.
For any special service requirements,
consult your service manuals and your
lubricant supplier. Please remember: one
key to keeping your truck running at top
economy and in prolonging its life is proper
lubrication servicing. Neglecting this
essential aspect of vehicle care can cost
time and money in the long run.
WARNING
Handle lubricants carefully. Vehicle lu-
bricants (oil and grease) can be poi-
sonous and cause death, personal in-
jury or sickness. They can also dam-
age the paint on the vehicle.
CAUTION
DO NOT mix different types of lubri-
cants. Mixing lubricants (oil and
grease) of different brands or types
could damage vehicle components;
therefore, drain (or remove) old lubri-
cants from the unit before refilling it.
Engine
Proper engine lubrication depends on the
outside temperatures where you will be
driving. Use the oil recommended for the
conditions you are most likely to be
