TM 9-2320-360-20-1
(4)
Completely lubricate the chassis and all ancillary equipment in accordance with (LO 9-2320-360-12).
(5)
Check the coolant level. Test the coolant to ensure that the cooling system is protected against corrosion and
temperatures down to -30F(-34C). Add antifreeze or corrosion inhibitors compatible with ethylene glycol base antifreeze
if cooling system is not adequately protected (TB 750-651).
(6)
Change engine oil and oil filter (paras 3-3 and 3-4). Change fuel filters. (paras 4-11 and 4-13).
e.
Extended storage (vehicle inactive).
CAUTION
When vehicle is to remain inactive for more than 12 months, extended storage
procedures must be preformed to prevent damage due to rust, corrosion or
organic growth in the fluids.
NOTE
When vehicle is to remain inactive for more than 12 months, extended storage
procedures must be preformed to maintain the vehicle warranty.
(1)
Completely lubricate the chassis and all ancillary equipment in accordance with (LO 9-2320-360-12).
(2)
Engine extended storage.
(a)
Change oil and filter (paras 3-3 and 3-4). Add preservative lubricating oil (MIL-L-21260C), Grade 2.
(b)
Seal off turbocharger inlet and outlet connections with moisture resistant tape.
(3)
Transmission extended storage.
(a)
Drain oil (LO 9-2320-360-12).
(b)
Add two qt (1.9 L) of VCI-329 vapor corrosion inhibitor (MIL-L-46002B) or equivalent and then fill
transmission to operating level with transmission fluid. Add 1 teaspoon of Biobor JF (MIL-S-53021) anti-fungicide (or
equivalent) to the transmission fluid.
(c)
Run the engine for approximately five minutes at 1500 rpm with the transmission in neutral (N).
(d)
Drive the vehicle. Make sure the transmission shifts thru all ranges.
(e)
Continue running the engine at 1500 rpm with the transmission in neutral until normal operating
temperature is reached.
CAUTION
Do not allow transmission oil temperature to exceed 2250F (1070C) or damage to
transmission may result.
(f)
If normal operating temperature is less than 225F (107C), shift the transmission to forward range and stall the
converter. Do not exceed 225F (107C). Idle engine for approximately five minutes with transmission in neutral (N).
WARNING
Ensure transmission is cool before proceeding. Failure to comply may result in
injury to personnel.
(g)
When transmission is cool enough to touch, seal all openings and the breather with moisture-proof tape.
(h)
Coat all exposed, unpainted surfaces with preservative grease such as petrolatum (MIL-C-11796), Class 2.
(i)
If additional storage time is required, repeat steps (b) thru (h) at yearly intervals: except, it is not necessary
to drain the transmission each year. Just add VCI-329 (MIL-L-46002) vapor corrosion inhibitor (or equivalent) and Biobor
JF (MIL-S-53021) anti-fungicide (or equivalent).
