TM 5-4210-230-14&P-1 VEHICLE MAINTENANCE FUEL TANK (Gasoline Engine) As  fuel  is  consumed,  air  is  drawn  through  the  vent  into  the  fuel  tank.    Under  certain  climatic  conditions,  with  a  quick  drop  in temperature and the vehicle inoperative, moisture may accumulate in the fuel tank.  Therefore, keep the fuel tank filled, as much as practical, to avoid moisture accumulation. FUEL TANK LPG LPG chassis should be operated on one tank at a time.  If both tanks are used simultaneously, the fuel will bleed into the tank having the lowest pressure and temperature.  When the fuel tank being used becomes exhausted of fuel, the operator will notice a reduction in power.  The operator will then stop the vehicle, close the liquid valve on the tank being used, and slowly open the liquid valve on the opposite tank. CAUTION To prevent severe personal injury, property damage or fatality never light matches near any type fuel tank, because the air within a radius of several feet is  permeated with a highly explosive vapor.  Keep the filler spout or nozzle in contact  with the metal of the tank to avoid the possibility of an electric spark igniting the  fuel. STEERING POWER STEERING PUMP BELT TENSION For proper belt deflection refer to Fan and Accessory Belt Adjustment under Engine. POWER STEERING PUMP FLUID RESERVOIR The fluid level in the reservoir must be maintained to the proper level on the dipstick type indicator attached to the filler cap. POWER STEERING OIL RESERVOIR FILTER (If Equipped) Remove reservoir cover and filter element.  Clean inside of reservoir with a lint-free cloth.  Install new filter element and replace cover.  Refer to the lubrication instructions. TIRES TIRE BALANCE Front wheel shimmy, wandering and cupped tires are caused by an out-of-balance condition of one or both front tires.  If the tires are changed because of a flat tire or to equalize wear, it is advised that they be checked for balance before operating the truck. 11
