TESTING:
1.
Install pressure gauge in oil manifold or in oil supply line attached to oil manifold. The minimum gauge capacity
must be 70 psi (485 kPa).
Touching exhaust system during test can cause severe burns.
CARBON MONOXIDE (EXHAUST GAS) CAN KILL YOU
Exposure to exhaust gases produces symptoms of headache, dizziness, loss of
muscular control, drowsiness, or coma. Brain damage or death can result from
severe exposure.
Fumes from engine become concentrated with poor ventilation. Operate engine
in a ventilated area only.
While running engine, be alert for fumes. If someone is overcome, expose to
fresh air; keep warm and still; give artificial respiration if needed. Seek medical
attention. Administer oxygen, if available.
GOOD VENTILATION IS THE BEST DEFENSE AGAINST EXHAUST POISONING.
NOTE
HVT (Hydraulic Variable Timing).
2.
Start engine in accordance with TM 10-4320-307-10.
