13-24 Useful advice for emergencies
4. Fuel containing air bubbles comes out from the
air vent plug.
Operate the manual pump a few dozen times
more until the emerging fuel no longer contains
bubbles.
5. When fuel is bubble-free, firmly tighten the air
vent plug. Then, operate the manual pump sev-
eral more times until it becomes hard to press.
When the fuel is cold, the manual pump may not
become hard to press. Even so, you must oper-
ate the manual pump several times after tighten-
ing the air vent plug.
6. After the fuel system has been completely bled,
wipe off spilt fuel and start the engine.
7. Check that there is no fuel leakage.
If you are forced to tow the vehicle, take the follow-
ing precautions:
• Disconnect either the propeller shaft or the rear
axle shaft, whichever is easier.
If you disconnect the rear axle shaft, cover the
opening to prevent oil and grease from escap-
ing.
CAUTION
Before towing an automatic transmission vehi-
cle, disconnect the propeller shaft or rear axle
shaft. Alternatively, tow the vehicle with its rear
wheels off the ground. Towing the vehicle with-
out taking these precautions would damage the
automatic transmission.
