WHEEL & TIRE SPECIFICATIONS
Tire specifications are imprinted on the tire side wall. The
recommended cold tire inflation pressures are listed on a label
attached to the rear face of the driver's door. These pressures
provide the best combination of ride comfort, tire wear and stability
under normal conditions.
CAUTION: DO NOT mix tires of different design such as radial ply
with bias or bias-belted tires. Mixing tire types will
adversely affect road handling and may lead to loss of
vehicle control. When using snow tires, they must be used
in set of four for maneuverability and safety. DO NOT use
tire chains on front wheels.

CAUTIONS & WARNINGS
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) AIR BAG SYSTEM
NOTE: See the AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEM article in the
ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT Section.
The SRS has no user-servicable parts. Always have servicing
done by an authorized dealer.
When performing maintenance on air bag equipped vehicles
always observe proper safety precautions.
WARNING: To avoid injury from accidental air bag deployment, read and
carefully follow all warnings and service precautions. See
appropriate AIR BAG RESTRAINT SYSTEM article in the
ACCESSORIES/SAFETY EQUIPMENT section.
CAUTION: Disconnect negative battery cable before servicing any air
bag system, steering column or passenger side dash
component. After any repair, turn ignition key to the ON
position from passenger's side of vehicle in case of
accidental air bag inflation
ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS)
CAUTION: Never mix different diameter tires. On loose or uneven
surfaces, the ABS system may require longer stopping
distances than conventional brake systems. Exercise caution
when removing mud or snow from the wheels so as not to
damage the ABS wiring or speed sensors.
BATTERY WARNING
WARNING: When battery is disconnected, vehicles equipped with
computers may lose memory data. When battery power is
restored, driveability problems may exist on some vehicles.
These vehicles may require a relearn procedure. See
appropriate COMPUTER RELEARN PROCEDURES article in the
GENERAL INFORMATION section below.
REPLACING BLOWN FUSES
Before replacing a blown fuse, remove ignition key, turn off
all lights and accessories to avoid damaging the electrical system. Be
sure to use fuse with the correct indicated amperage rating. The use
of an incorrect amperage rating fuse may result in a dangerous
electrical system overload.
BRAKE PAD WEAR INDICATOR
Indicator will cause a squealing or scraping noise, warning
that brake pads need replacement.

2) Disconnect air intake hose and vacuum hoses. Remove air
hose and air outlet housing. Remove heat protectors. Disconnect
exhaust pipe. Remove power steering oil pump and bracket. Remove
engine hanger bracket. Disconnect oil inlet pipe.
3) Disconnect coolant hose and tubes. Remove nuts and bolts
securing exhaust manifold. Remove exhaust manifold and gaskets.
Disconnect oil return pipe. Remove turbocharger assembly.
Removal (Stealth & 3000GT Front)
1) Disconnect negative battery cable. Drain engine oil and
coolant. Remove radiator. Disconnect exhaust pipe. Remove air intake
hose, air hoses and air pipe. Remove alternator and belt. Remove oil
dipstick guide.
2) Remove heat protector. Disconnect oxygen sensor electrical
connector. Remove oil return pipe. Remove turbocharger support bracket
and remove turbocharger from exhaust manifold. See Fig. 10.

Removal (Stealth & 3000GT Rear)
1) Disconnect battery cables and remove battery. Drain engine
oil and coolant. Remove accelerator cable. Remove air hose, air pipe
and heat protectors. Disconnect clutch booster vacuum hose. Remove air
touching a metal ground point on the vehicle prior to
servicing any ESD sensitive component.
ENGINE OIL
CAUTION: Never use non-detergent or straight mineral oil.
FUEL SYSTEM SERVICE
WARNING: Relieve fuel system pressure prior to servicing any fuel
system component (fuel injection models).
HALOGEN BULBS
Halogen bulbs contain pressurized gas which may explode if
overheated. DO NOT touch glass portion of bulb with bare hands. Eye
protection should be worn when handling or working around halogen
bulbs.
POWER STEERING FLUID
When adding power steering fluid, avoid spilling. Damage to
alternator, located beneath power steering reservoir, could result.
RADIATOR CAP
CAUTION: Always disconnect the fan motor when working near the
radiator fan. The fan is temperature controlled and could
start at any time even when the ignition key is in the OFF
position. DO NOT loosen or remove radiator cap when cooling
system is hot.
RADIATOR FAN
WARNING: Keep hands away from radiator fan. Fan is controlled by a
thermostatic switch which may come on or run for up to 15
minutes even after engine is turned off.
