The future performance and reliability of the engine depends on the care and restraint exercised during its early life. It is especially important to observe the following precautions during the initial 600 miles of vehicle operation. * After starting, do not race the engine. * Avoid prolonged vehicle operation at a constant speed. Moving parts will break in better if you vary your speed. * Avoid hard stopping, especially during the first 200 miles (320 km) of driving. * Do not drive slowly with the transmission in a high gear. * Drive the vehicle at moderate engine speeds. * Do not tow a trailer during the first 600 miles of vehicle operation. A CAUTION To minimize the possibility of catalyst or other vehicle damage: * Maintain the engine in the proper operating condition. * In the event of an engine malfunction, particularly one involving engine misfire or other apparent loss of performance, have the vehicle serviced promptly. * Do not shut off the engine or interrupt the ignition when the transmission is in gear and the vehicle is in motion. * Do not try to start the engine by pushing or towing the vehicle, or coasting down a hill. * Do not idle the engine with any spark plug wires disconnected or removed, such as during diagnostic testing. * Do not idle the vehicle for prolonged periods if idling seems rough or there are other malfunctions. * Do not allow the fuel tank to get near the empty level.

Use of leaded fuel in vehicles equipped with catalytic converters is prohibited by federal law, because lead deactivates the pollutantreducing components of the catalyst system. The converter is designed to last the life of the vehicle under normal usage and when unleaded fuel is used. No special maintenance is required on the converter. However, it is very important to keep the engine properly tuned. Engine misfiring, which can result from an improperly tuned engine, may cause overheating of 85 6-10 OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE 60A23-06090 IMPROVING FUEL ECONOMY The following instructions will help you improve fuel economy.
