Oils with these words on the container will help you save fuel.
This doughnut-shaped logo (symbol) is used
on most oil containers to help
you select the correct oil.
You should look for this on the oil container, and use
only those oils that
display the logo.
GM Goodwrench@ oil (in Canada, GM Engine Oil) meets all the requirements
for your vehicle.
Engine Oil Additives:
Don’t add anything to your oil. Your GM dealer is ready to advise if you think
something should be added.
When to Change Engine c)k
See if any one of these is true for you:
Most trips are less than 4 miles (6 km).
It’s below freezing outside and most trips are less than 10 miles
(16 km).
The engine is at low speed most of the time (as in door-to-door delivery,
You tow a trailer often.
or in stop-and-go traffic).
Most trips are through dusty places.
The vehicle is frequently operated off-road.
If any one of these is true for your vehicle, you need to chang\
e your oil and
filter every 3,000 miles (5000 km) or 3 months-whichever comes first.
If none of them are true, change the oil every 7,500 miles (12 500 km) or
12 months-whichever comes first. Change the filter at the first oil change
and at every other oil change after that.
If your vehicle has 4-wheel drive, you ,will have a remote oil filter located
under the hood.
It is mounted to the front left inner fender, behind the
headlights.
Engine Block Heater:
An engine block heater can be a big help if you have to park outside in very
cold weather,
-0°F (-18°C) or colder. If your vehicle has this option, see
“Engine Block Heater” in the Index.

Loading Your Vehicle

The CertificationRire label is found on the drive~r's door lock pillar. The label
shows t'he size of your original t'ires and the inflation pressu8res ne-eded to
obtain the gross vehicle weight capac-ity of your vehicle. This
is called the
GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating). The- GVWR includes the weight of the
vehlicle, all occupants, fuel and cargo.
The Certifi'cationKtre label also tells you the maximum weights for the front
and rear axles, called Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR). To find out the
actual
loads on your front and rear axles, you need to go to a weigh station
and weigh your vehicle. Your dealer can help you with this. Be sure to
spread out your load equally
on both sides of the centerline.
Never exceed the GVWR for your vehicle, or the Gross Axle Wei\
ght Rating
(GAWR) for either the front or rear axle.
And,
if you do have a heavy load, you should spread it out.
I CAUTION
In case of a sudden stop or collision, things carried in the bed\
of
I [I! your truck could shift forward and come into the passenger are\
a
injuring you or others.
If you put things in the bed of your truck,
should make sure they are properly secured.

The camper’s center of gravity should fall within the center of gravity zone for
your vehicle’s cargo load.
You must weigh any accessories, trailer hitches or other equipment you add
to your vehicle. Then, subtract this extra weight from the CWR,
This extra
weight may shotten the center of gravity zone for your vehicle. Your dealer
can help you with this.
If your slide-in camper and its load weigh less than the CWR, the center of
gravity zone for your vehicle may be larger.
Your dealer can help you make
a good vehicle-camper match. He’ll also help
you determine your CWR.
After you’ve loaded your vehicle and camper, drive to a weigh station and
weigh on the front and rear wheels separately. This will tell you the loads on
your
axles. The loads on the front and rear axles shouldn’t be more th\
an
either
of the GAWRs. The total of the axie..loads should not be more than
the GVWR.
Open your driver’s door and look at the door lock pillar f\
or the CertificationKire label to find out your GWAR and GWVR.
If you’ve gone over your weight ratings, move or take out some\
things until
all the weights fall below the ratings. Of course, you should always tie down
any loose items when you load your vehicle or camper.
When you install and load your slide-in camper, check the manufacturer’s
instructions.

Inflation-Tire Pressure
The Certification/Tire label, which is on the driver’s door \
lock pillar, shows the
correct inflation pressures for your tires, when they’re cold\
. “Cold’’ means your
vehicle has been sitting for at least three hours or driven n\
o more than a mile.
I NOTICE I
When to Check: Check your tires once a month or more. Don’t forget \
your
compact spare tire (if
so equipped). It should be at 60 psi (420 kPa).
How to Check: Use a good quality pocket-type gage to check tire pressure.
Simply looking at the tires will not tell you the pressure, e\
specially
if you
have radial tires-which may
l’ook properly inflated even if they’re
underinflated.
If your tires have valve caps, be sure
to put them back on. They help
prevent leaks by keeping out dirt and moisture.
Ere lnspection and Rotation
To make your tires last longer, have them inspected and rotated a\
t the
mileages recommended in the Maintenance Schedule. See Scheduled
Maintenance Services in the Index.
