the oil level at regular intervals (such as every 'o ther fuel stop) and keep it above
th e "Add" line. Rem ember, your engine may use more oil when it is new .
• The best time to check the engine oil level is when the oil is warm, such as
during a fuel stop. First, wait about 5 minutes for the oil to drain back to
the oil pan, Then, pull out the dipstick, wipe
it clean, and push it back down
all the way . Now , pull out.th e dipstick and look at the oil-level on the dipstick.
Some
dipSlicks have "Add" and "Full" lines , Others are marked "Add! Qt" ­
and "Operaling Range." In all cases, keep the oil level above the
"Add" line. Push· the dipstick back down all the way after taking the
reading. _ A ·dd oil , if needed.
• If you check the oil level when the oil is cold, do no t run the engine first. The cold oil wilJ not drain back to the pan fast enough to give a true oil level.
Engine Oil Additives
There are many extra engine oil additives (or helpers) for sale. Your engine should
not need these extra additives if you use SE-quality or SF·quality engine oil and
change
it as suggested. If you think your engine has .an oil-related problem, talk
to your authorized dealer.
If needed, your dealer can provide you with a tested
and approved oil additive called "GM Engine Oil Supplement."
AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE FLUID RECOMMENDATIONS
Use the Proper Fluid Use only automatic transmission fluid labe led DEXRON-®II. You can buy this
fluid from your Chevrolet dealer or
othe~,'service outlets.
Check the Fluid Level with care Check the automatic transmission fluid level at each engine oil change. Before
checking the fluid level, set the parking brake and then start the engine. AppJy
the regular brakes and then
'mov e the shift lever through all of the gear ranges,
ending in
"P '·(Park). You must check the fluid level with the engine funning at
slow idle and the car level.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine NOTICE: You cannot read the correct fluid level if you have just driven the car for a long time at high speed, in city traffic in hot weather, or if the car has been pulling a trailer. Wait. until the fluid has cooled down (about 30 minutes).
Remove the dipstick located on the driver's side forward of the cowl. Carefully
touch the wet end of the dipstick to find out if the fluid is cool, warm or hot. Wipe
it clean and push it back in until the cap seats. Pull
out the dipstick and read the
fluid level.
• If it felt cool or warm (about room temperature), the level should be
between the dimples above the "Full" mark.
• If it was too hot to hold. the level should be at or in the hatched area.
Add just enough DEXRON-®n fluid to fill the transaxle. It takes only 0.5 liter
(one pint)to raise the level from "Add" to "Full" with a hot transaxle.
Do not overfill the transaxle. Overfilling can cause foaming and loss of fluid, which
could result in transaxle damage.
Automatic Transaxle Drain Intervals
Change the transmission fluid and change the filter (or clean the screen) as
outlined in Section
A of the Maintenance Schedule folder.
ELECTRIC FAN
CAUTION: Keep hands, tools, and clothing away from the angine cooling fan to help prevent personal injury. This fan is electric and can come on whether or not the engine is running. The fan can start automatically in response to a heat sensor when the ignition is in the "Run" position.
ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM
The coolant recovery system is standard. The coolant in the radiator expands with
heat, and the overflow collects in the recovery tank. When the system cools down,
the coolant
is drawn back into the radiator.
The cooling system was filled at the factory with a quality coolant that meets
GM Specification 1899-M. The cooling system is designed to use coolant (a mixture
of water and ethylene glycol antifreeze) rather than plain water. The coolant
solution should be used year round. It has many advantages, such as:
• provides freezing protection down to _37°C, (-34°P)
•
provides boiling protection up to 128QC, (262°P)
•
protects against rust and corrosion in the cooling system,
• maintains the proper engine temperature for efficient operation and emission
control, and
• allows proper operation of the coolant temperature light (or gage).
See Section A of the Maintenance Schedule folder to find out when the coolant
must
be replaced.
COOLING SYSTEM CARE
Check the cooling system at regular intervals, such as during fuel stops. You
usually do not need to remove the radiator cap to check the coolant level. Lift
the engine hood and look at the "see through" coolant recovery tank. When the
engine
is cold, the coolant level -should be at or slightly above the "Full Cold"
mark on the tank. When the engine has fully warmed up, the level should be at ')r slightly below the "Full Hot" mark on the tank. If the coolant level is low,
