INTRODUCTION
Lubrication and maintenance is divided into re-
quired and recommended service tasks. The required
service tasks must be completed to verify emission
controls function correctly. The recommended service
tasks should be completed to maintain safety and
durability.
This information will assist service personnel in
providing maximum protection for each owner’s ve-
hicle.
Conditions can vary with individual driving habits.
It is necessary to schedule maintenance as a time
interval as well as a distance interval.
It is the owner’s responsibility to determine appli-
cable driving condition. Also to have vehicle serviced

FUEL REQUIREMENTS
GASOLINE ENGINES
All engines require use of unleaded gasoline to re-
duce harmful effects of lead to the environment. Also
unleaded fuel is necessary to prevent damage to the
catalytic converter/O2 sensor. Fuel must have a mini-
mum octane rating of 87.
GEAR LUBRICANTS
A dual grade is also used to specify viscosity of
multi-purpose gear lubricants.
API grade designation identifies gear lubricants in
terms of recommended usage.
MopartSynthetic Gear lube is required for use in
vehicles with a trailer towing package.

(Fig. 6).
GROUND CLEARANCE
The lifted wheels of disabled vehicle should be a
minimum of 10 cm (4 in.) off ground. Make sure there
is enough clearance at opposite end. This is critical
when towing over rough terrain. If rear wheels are
removed, secure brake drums. A 20 cm (8 in.) ground
clearance must be maintained between brake drums
or rotors and ground.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The following safety precautions must be considered
when preparing for and during a vehicle towing op-

• Remove exhaust pipe tips that interfere with tow

ENGINE BREAK-IN
After first starting a new engine, allow it to idle for
15 seconds before shifting into a drive gear. Also:
• Drive vehicle at varying speeds less than 88 km/h
(55 mph) for first 480 km (300 miles).
• Avoid fast acceleration and sudden stops.
• Do not drive at full-throttle for extended periods of
time
• Do not drive at constant speeds
• Do not idle engine excessively

ALCOHOL/GASOLINE BLENDS
Many brands of blended unleaded gasoline are now
available. This type of blended fuel is sometimes re-
ferred to as reformulated gasoline.
Unleaded gasoline is blended with oxygenated-type
fuels to produce a clean air gasoline in many areas.
The use of this type of blended fuel is recommended.
ETHANOL—Unleaded gasoline and ethanol
blended fuels are a mixture of 10 percent ethanol and
90 percent unleaded gasoline. This is an acceptable
blend of fuel.
