Underbody maintenance
WARNING
To remove road  tar and insects, use  a
tar  remover,  not  a   scraper  or  other
sharp object.
Corrosive  materials   used  for   ice  and
snow removal  and dust control may  col-
lect on the  underbody. If these materials
are not removed, accelerated rusting can
occur  on underbody  parts  such  as  the
fuel lines,  frame,  floor pan  and exhaust
system,  even   though  they  have   been
treated with rust protection.
After washing  the vehicle,  test the
brakes while driving slowly to see if
they have been affected by water. If
braking  performance  is   impaired,
dry  the  brakes  by  applying  them
lightly while maintaining a slow for-
ward speed.
To protect the  surfaces of bright-metal
parts from corrosion, apply a coating of
wax or chrome preservative and rub to
a high luster.
During  winter  weather   or  in  coastal
areas, cover the bright metal parts with
a heavier  coating of  wax or preserva-
tive. If  necessary,  coat the  parts  with
non-corrosive petroleum  jelly  or other
protective compound.
Thoroughly flush  the  vehicle underbody
and  wheel  openings  with  lukewarm  or
cold water  once  a month,  after off-road
driving and at the end of each winter. Pay
special attention to these areas because
it is difficult to see all  the mud and dirt. It
will do more harm than good to wet down
the road  grime without  removing it.  The
lower edges of doors, rocker panels, and
frame  members  have  drain  holes   that
should not  be  allowed to  clog with  dirt;
trapped water  in these areas  can cause
rusting.
