A Word About Maintenance
We at General Motors want to help you keep your vehicle in good working
condition. But we don’t know exactly how you’ll drive it. You may drive ve\
ry
short distances only a few times a week. Or you may drive lo\
ng distances all
the time in very hot, dusty weather. You may use your vehicle in making
deliveries. Or you may drive
it to work, to do errands, or in many other ways.
Because of all the different ways people use their GM vehicles, maintenance
needs vary. You may even need more frequent checks and replacements than
you will find in the schedules in this section.
So please read this section and
note how you drive. If you have any questions on how
to keep your vehicle
in good condition, see your
GM dealer, the place many GM owners choose
to have their maintenance work done. Your dealer can be relied upon to use
proper parts and practices.
Your Vehicle And The Environment
Proper vehicle maintenance not only helps keep your vehicle in good working
condition, but it also helps the environment.
All recommended maintenance
procedures are important. Improper vehicle maintenance or the re\
moval of
important components can significantly affect the quality of the air we breathe.
Improper fluid levels or even the wrong tire inflation can inc\
rease the level of
emissions from your vehicle. To help protect our environment, and to help
keep your vehicle in good condition, please maintain your vehicle properly.
A
Performing maintenance work on a vehicle can be dangerous. In
trying to
do some jobs, you can be seriously injured. Do your own
maintenance work only
if you have the required know-how and the
proper tools and equipment for the job.
If you have any doubt, have
a qualified technician
do the work.
b
If you are skilled enough to do some work on your vehicle, you will probably
want to get the service information
GM publishes. You will find a list of
publications and how to get them in Section
8, ‘Customer Assistance
Information”. See “Service Publications” in the Index.
The Maintenance Record provides a place for you to record the maintenance
performed on your vehicle. Whenever any maintenance is performed\
, be sure
to write
it down in this section. This will help you determine when your next
maintenance should be done. In addition, it is a good idea to keep your
maintenance receipts. They may be needed to qualify your vehicle for
warranty repairs.

Explanation Of Scheduled Maintenance Services
Below are explanations of the services listed in the maintenance charts.
The proper fluids and lubricants to use are listed in this se\
ction. Make sure whoever services your vehicle uses these. All parts should be \
replaced and all necessary repairs done before you or anyone else drives th\
e vehicle.
1. ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTER CHANGE* -ALWAYS USE SG OR SG/CE QUALITY, ENERGY CONSERVING
II OILS OF THE PROPER
VISCOSITY. To determine the preferred viscosity oil for your vehicle’s
engine (e.g. SAE 5W-30). See “Engine Oil” in the Index.\

2. CHASSIS LUBRICATION -Lubricate the front suspension, ball joint,
steering linkage, clutch, and transfer case shift linkage, parki\
ng brake

maintenance
schedule, or at every engine oil change, whichever comes first.\
On
vehicles without hydraulic clutches, lubricate the clutch cross \
shaft every
30,000 miles
(50 000 km).
Ball joints should not be lubricated unless their temperature i\
s 10°F
(-12°C) or higher. When the weather is cold, let them war\
m up before

Also, be sure to check all the vehicle fluid levels at this \
time.
3. CLUTCH FORK BALL STUD LUBRICATION (4.3L ENGINES ONLY)
-Lubricate the clutch fork ball stud through the fitting on th\
e clutch housing. Lubricant must be added “sparingly” to the fittin\
g, as only

Ib. (.003 kg) is required to lubricate the ball stud surface\
. Do not add
lubricant more often than the intervals recommended in the Main\

deteriorated. Tighten all hose clamps. Clean the outside of the radiator
