PREPARATION BEFORE MAINTENANCE
It is necessary to prepare the truck to be serviced. A
mechanic’s initial focus while preparing the vehicle for
service should be safety. The primary preparation involves
relieving the pressure within the system BEFORE
performing any maintenance procedures.
Follow the steps as outlined to ensure that no pressure
remains.
1. Leave the Fuel Management Module Manual Shut-
Off Valve in the ‘ON’ position.
2. Turn OFF each supply tank’s valve(s) inside CNrG
Tailgate.
Figure 86. Tank Valve
3. Start the vehicle's engine, allowing it to run until the
engine shuts off. This will ensure that all CNG in the
lines has been consumed.
4. As an added safety precaution, open the system
purge valve to ensure no latent pressure remains.
5. Ensure the high pressure gauge on the fuel control
module reads 0 psi.
6. Turn off the power supply if an electrical component
of the system requires service.
7. Perform any maintenance ONLY after completing
these instructions.
See the
Compressed Natural Gas (CNG)
section of your
Service Manual for additional maintenance information.
