CLEANING AND STORAGE
Cleaning
Frequent, thorough cleaning of your vehicle will not only enhance its appearance but will
improve its general performance and extend the useful life of many components.
1 .Before cleaning the vehicle:
a. Block off the end of the exhaust pipe to prevent water entry. A plastic bag and
strong rubber band may be used.
b. Make sure the spark plug and all filler caps are properly installed.
2. If the engine case is excessively greasy, apply degreaser with a paint brash. Do not apply
degreaser to the wheel axles.
3. Rinse the dirt and degreaser off with a garden hose. Use only enough pressure to do the job.
Excessive water pressure may cause water seepage and deterioration of wheel
bearings, brakes, transmission seals and electrical devices. Many expensive repair
bills have resulted from improper high pressure detergent applications such as those
available in coin-operated car washers.
4.Once the majority of the dirt has been hosed off
,
wash all surfaces with warm
water and mild, detergent-type soap. An old toothbrush or bottle brush is handy for
hard-to-get-at places.
5.Rinse the vehicle off immediately with clean water and dry all surfaces with a
chamois
,
clean towel or soft absorbent cloth.
