Checking Other Engine Parts

Check the engine compartment as follows:

• Make sure the transmission is filled to the proper level with the fluid recommended by the gear manufacturer. Do not overfill.
• Make sure cable connections to the storage batteries are clean and tight.
• Check for cracks in the battery cases (1), for tightness of the cable clamps (2) at the terminals, and for corrosion of the terminals (3). Service or replace as needed.
• To provide corrosion protection, apply dielectric grease liberally to the terminal pads.
