things that have caused skin ..
,cancer in laboratory animals. Don't
let used oil stay.on your .skin for

with soap and water, or a good
hand cleaner. Wash or properly

determine when
to replace the air filter.
Used
oil can be a real threat to the
environment. If you change your own
oil, be sure to drain all free-flowing oil
from the filter before disposal. Don't
ever dispose of oil by pouring it on the
ground, into sewers, or into streams or
bodies
of water. Instead, recycle it by
taking it to a place that collects used oil.
If you have a problem properly
disposing
of yo-ur used oil, ask your:
dealer, a service station or a local
recycling center €or
help.

Replacing Brake System Parts
The braking system on a modern
vehicle is
complex. Its many parts have
to be
of top quality -and work well
together if the vehicle is to haye really
good braking. Vehicles we design and
test have top-quality GM brake-parts in
the&, as
your Corvette does when it is
new. When you replace parts of your
braking 'system-for example, when
your brakelinings wear down and you
have to have new ones put in-be sure
you get new genuine GM replacement
parts. If.you don't, your brakes may no
longer work properly. For example, if
someone.puts
in b.r&e linings that are
wrong for your vehicle, .the balance
between your
front and rear brakes can
change, for the worse. The braking
performance
you've come to expect can
change in many other ways if.-someone
puts
in the wrong replacement brake
parts.
