The issue
A PAIR OF LABELS, ONE ON EACH OF THE TWO DIESEL FUEL TANKS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN INSTALLED ON THESE VEHICLES. THE LABELS ARE INTENDED PRIMARILY TO REMIND SERVICE PERSONNEL WHO CLOSE THE VALVES ON THE FUEL TANK CROSS-OVER LINE TO REOPEN THE VALVES BEFORE VEHICLE OPERATION IS RESUMED. OPERATING THE TRUCK WITH THE VALVES CLOSED COULD RESULT IN OVER-PRESSURIZATION OF THE RIGHT HAND TANK, SPILLAGE OF DIESEL FUEL AND DEFORMATION AND POSSIBLE RUPTURE OF THE TANK. CORRECTION: LABELS AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS WILL BE SENT TO OWNERS.
