Engine Exhaust
CAUTION:
Running Your Engine While You’re
Parked (Automatic Transmission)
It’s better not to park with the engine running. But if
ever you have to, here are some things to know.
Engine exhaust can kill. It contains the gas
carbon monoxide (CO), which you can’t see or
smell. It can cause unconsciousness and death.
CAUTION:
You might have exhaust coming in if:
Idling the engine with the climate control system
off could allow dangerous exhaust into your
vehicle (see the earlier Caution under
“Engine Exhaust”).
Also, idling in a closed-in place can let deadly
carbon monoxide (CO) into your vehicle even if
the fan switch is at the highest setting. One place
this can happen is a garage. Exhaust -- with
CO -- can come in easily. NEVER park in a
garage with the engine running.
Your exhaust system sounds strange
or different.
Your vehicle gets rusty underneath.
Your vehicle was damaged in a collision.
Your vehicle was damaged when driving
over high points on the road or over
road debris.
Repairs weren’t done correctly.
Your vehicle or exhaust system had been
modified improperly.
Another closed-in place can be a blizzard.
(See “Blizzard” in the Index.)
If you ever suspect exhaust is coming into
your vehicle:
Drive it only with all the windows down to
blow out any CO; and
Have your vehicle fixed immediately.

Glad I did not have to pay for manual
So, another good reason to keep on top of pressures. Since an average dealership sale lasts a mere 5 days, it’s imperative that a
dealership’s direct mail gets into consumers’ homes as quickly as possible.
I typically come up with some fairly wild ideas for my cars and Troy by no means says no.
