not damaged, use a suitable pressurizing pump in
order to pressure test the filler cap. The correct
pressure is stamped on the face of the filler cap. If
the filler cap does not retain the correct pressure,
install a new filler cap.

Diesel Particulate Filter - Clean
Wear goggles, gloves, protective clothing, and a
National Institute for Occupational Safety and
Health (NIOSH) approved P95 or N95 half-face res-
pirator when handling a used Diesel Particulate

verter/muffler and diesel particulate filter.
