Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 3. Stop the engine. Open the radiator drain valve to drain the coolant. (Drainage
may be speeded by removing the drain plugs in the block.)
4. Close the drain valve (install block drain plugs, if removed). Add water until
the system is filled and run the engine until the upper radiator hose is hot again.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 several times until the drained liquid is nearly colorless.
6. Drain the system and then close the radiator drain valve tightly. (Install block
drain plugs, if removed.)
7. Disconnect all hoses from the coolant recovery tank. Remove the tank and
pour out any fluid. Scrub and clean the inside of the tank with soap and water.
Flush it well with clean water,
then drain it. Reinstall the tank and hoses.
8. Add enough water and ethylene glycol antifreeze (meeting GM Specification
1899-M)to provide the required cooling, freezing, and corrosion protection. Use a solution that is at least 50 percent antifreeze, but no more than 70
percent antifreeze. Fill the radiator to the base of the filler neck and fill the
coolant recovery
tank to the "Full Hot" mark. Put the recovery tank cap back
on.
9. Run the engine, with the radiator cap removed, until the upper radiator hose
is hot.
10. With the engine idling, add coolant to the radiator until it reaches the bottom
of the filler neck. Install the radiator cap, making sure the arrows on the cap line up with the overflow. tube.
It is the owner's responsibility to:
• Maintain cooling system freeze protection at _37°C (_34°F) to ensure
protection against corrosion and loss of coolant from boiling. (A SO/50
mixture of water and ethylene glycol antifreeze will provide freeze protection
to ~ 37°C ore -34°P.) You should do this even if you don't expect freezing
temperatures.
• Add ethylene glycol base antifreeze that meets GM Specification 1899-M
when antifreeze
hasto be added because of coolant loss or for more protection
' against freezing at temperatures lower than _37°C (-·J4°P).
NOTICE: Do not use alcohol or methanol-base antifreeze. or plain water alone. in your vehicle at any time. They will boil at a lower pOint than that at which the hot light indicator (or temperature gage) works. and they do not provide proper protection against corrosion.
Radiator Pressure Cap
The radiator cap, a 105 kPa(15 psi) pressure type, must be installed tightly,
otherwise coolant may be lost and damage to engine may result from overheating.
Radiator pressure caps should be checked periodically for proper operation.
If
replacement is required, an AC cap is recommended.
Thermostat
The engine coolant temperature is controlled by a thermostat. It stops coolant flow
through the radiator until a preset temperature is reached. This thermostat is
installed in
the engine coolant outlet on the engine block. The same thermostat is used in both winter and summer. When a replacement is needed, AC~Delco parts
are recommended.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine CAUTION: If the air cleaner is removed during repair or maintenance, be sure to . put It back on correctly. If the air cleaner is not correctly installed, there could be II fire In the engine compartment (if there should happen to be a backfire), or other engine malfunction.
Power Steering System
Check the 'fluid level in the power steering pump at each engine oil change. Add GM :Power Steering Fluid, (Part Number GM 1050017) as needed:
, • Ifnuid is warmed up (abo ut 66°C or lSO"F --hot to the to uch), the fluid level
should be between the "Hot" and "Cold" marks on the filler cap indicat or.
• If cool (about 21°C or 70° F), the fluid level should be between the "Add" and "Cold" marks.
This fluid
does not need ' periodic changing.
Freedom Battery
Your new vehicle has a Delco FREEDOM battery. It needs no periodic
maint enance . Its
lOp is permanently sealed (except for two small vent holes) and
has no filler caps. You will never have to add water. .
The hydrometer (test indicat or) in the top of the battery provides information for
testing purposes only.
For full power needs at repla cement time, a Delco battery with ,the same catalog
number as shown on the original banery's label
is recommended.
CAUTION: FoUow the precautions listed in the Jump Starting Cautton {see the "'n Case of Emergency''' section o"f this manual, when working on or near the battery.
Personal injury (particularly to eyes) or property damage may result from battery explosion, battery acid, or electric.1 (short circuit) burns.
Hood latches and Hood Hinge
At the interval shown in the Maintenance Schedule lubricate hood latch assembly
and hood hinge assembly as follows :
1 . Wipe off any accumulation
of dir.t or contamination on latch parts.
2. Apply Lubriplate or equivalent to latch pilaf bolts and latch loc king
plate .
3. Apply light engine oil to all pivot points in release mechanism, as well
as primary
and secondary latch mechanisms.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine LUGGAGE/CARGO LOAO CAPACITY
Maximum Luggage Compartment Load
Coupe 155 Pounds/70.2 Kilograms
Sedan 142 Pounds/64.5 Kilograms
NOTICE: Total combined weight of luggage compartment
load, luggage rack load (when-equipped) •. and passengers must not exceed the vehicle capacity weight (shown on the Tire Placard lOcated on the.left front door).
Inflation Pressure
The: cold inflation pressures listed on the Tire Placard provide for the best balance
of tire life, riding comfort. and vehicle handling under normal driving conditions.
If only one inflation pressure is recommended on the Tire Placard, this pressure
should be used for aU vehicle loading conditions. If your vehicle has two inflation
pressures listed on the placard, the "Max LDad" pressures can be used any time,
but must be used when you carry more passengers and cargo than is allowed in
the "Optional Pressures" section. The "Optional Pressures" can be used in lightly
loaded conditions by
'those who prefer the utmost in comfort. In all loading
conditions, use of the "Max Load" pressures will result in improved fuel economy.
Incorrect tire inflation pressures
can have adverse effects on tire life and_vehicle performance. Too Iowan" air pressure·"causes increased tire flexing and heat
build-up. This weakens the tire and increases the chance of damage or failure. It
can result in tire overloading, abnormal tire wear, adverse vehicle handling, and
reduced fuel mileage. 'I'oohigh
an air pressure can result in abnormal wear, harsh
ride, and also increase the chance of dar:nage from road hazards.
Tire inflation pressures should be checked (this includes the spare tire, unless it
is a stowaway spare) and whenever your vehicle is serviced. Always checJ<.,tire
inflation pressures when tires are "cold."
1. The "cold" tire inflation pressure applies to the tire pressure when a vehicle
has
not· been driven more than-one mile (1.6 kilometers) after sitting for three
hours or more.
2. It is normal for tire pressures to increase 30 to 60 kilopascals (4 to 8 pounds
per square inch)
or more when the tires become hot from driving. Do not "bleed" or reduce tire inflation pressures after driving your vehicle. Bleeding
reduces the
"cold" inflation pressure and increase tire flexing, which can
result in tire damage and failure.
3. FOr sustained driving at speeds of 75 mph to 85 mph (120 km/h to 140 km/h),in countries where such speeds are permitted by law, cold
inflation pressures must be increased
30 kPa (4 psi) above the cold inflation
pressures stated on the Tire Placard up to the maximum for each load
range stated in
the_ chart below.
Sustained speeds of 75 mph to 85 mph (120 km/h to 140 km/h) ARE
NOT ADVISED when the 30 kPa (4 psi) adjustment would require pressures greater than the maximum for each load range stated on the chart. Sustained
driving at speeds over 85 mph (140 km/h), where permitted by law. IS NOT ADVISED unless your vehicle is equipped with special high speed tires
available from many tire dealers.
4. Forproper inflation pressures when towing trailers, see page 1-11 in this
manuat

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine FUSES AND CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from short circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers; and fusible thermal links in the wiring itself. This greatly reduces
the hazard of electrically caused fires in the automobile.
The fuse junction box is located under the right side of the instrument panel.
The
headlight wiring is protected by a circuit breaker in the light switch. An electrical overload will cause the lights to go on an,d off, or in some cases to remain off. If this happens , have your headlight wiring checked right away. Besides a fuse, the windshield wiper motor is also protected by a circuit breaker. If the motor overheats, due to overloading caused by heavy snow, etc., the wiper ·will remain stopped until the motor cools. Be sure to have the cause of the over· loading corrected. Circuit breakers for power windows and power door locks are located on the bulkhead in the engine
compartment.
