A daily check of the engine should be made to prevent premature engine failure. If corrective steps are taken immediately on discovery of loose or worn parts, fewer forced stops and a more economical operation will result. If any substandard readings or observations are found, be sure to report it to proper authorities. Points to be checked daily are as follows:1. Oil, air, water or fuel leaks.2. Cooling system, clean radiator core, add coolant or antifreeze as necessary. Be filler cap seal is in good condition and the cap is installed tightly.3. Unusual engine noise.4. Excessive use of crankcase lubricating oil, coolant, battery fluid or fuel.5. Fuel pressure gauge - check with engine running, change fuel filter if indicator is in red range.6. Air cleaner indicator, if so equipped - inspect with engine running. Service air cleaner when red piston remains in up position.7. Unusual turbocharger noise or vibration. The muffled high pitch whine is the normal sound.8. Dirt should not be allowed to accumulate on the engine. A few minutes spent daily in keeping it clean are well repaid in improved appearance, and greater ease and safety in operation and maintenance.
