The proper fluids and lubricants to use are
listed
in Section D. Make sure whoever
services your vehicle uses these. All parts
should be replaced and all necessary
repairs done before you or anyone else
drives the vehicle.
NOTE: To determine your engine’s
displacement and code, see
“Engine Identification”
in the

1 Engine Oil and Filter Change” -
Always use SH or SG Energy
Conserving I1 oils of proper
viscosity. The
“SH” or “SG”
designation may be shown alone
or
in combination with others,
such as “SH/CD,”
“SH, SG,
CD,” “SG/CD,” etc. To deter-

“Engine Oil”
in the Index.
Chassis Lubrication
- Lubricate
the suspension and steering
linkage. Lubricate the
transmission shift linkage.
Tire and Wheel Rotation and
InsDection
- For proper wear
and maximum tire life, rotate
your tires following the
instructions
in this manual. See
“Tires, Inspection and Rotation”
in the Index. Check the tires for
uneven wear or damage. If you
see irregular or premature wear,
check the wheel alignment.
Check for damaged wheels also.
Engine Accessory Drive Belt(s)
Inspection
- Inspect the belt(s)
for cracks, fraying, wear and
proper tension. Replace as needed. (Belts can have many
small cracks
in individual ribs
without affecting performance.)
ITEM
NO. SERVICE
5 Cooling System Service* -
Drain, flush and refill the system
with new or approved recycled
coolant conforming to
GM
Specification 1825M. Keep
coolant at the proper mixture as
specified. See “Coolant”
in the
Index. This provides proper
freeze and boil protection,
corrosion inhibitor level and
maintains proper engine
operating temperature.
Inspect hoses and replace
if they
are cracked, swollen or deterior-
ated. Tighten screw-type hose
clamps. Clean the outside
of the
radiator and air conditioning
condenser. Wash the pressure
cap and neck.
To help ensure proper operation,
we recommend a pressure test of
both the cooling system and the
pressure cap.

WHAT SHOULD BE DONE
Check the transmission fluid level; add if needed. See “Manual Transmission” in the Index.
A fluid loss may indicate a problem. Check the system and repair if needed.
Check the gear lubricant level in the rear axle and add if needed. See “Rear Axle” in the Index.
A fluid loss may indicate a problem. Check the axle and repair it
if needed. If your vehicle
is used to pull a trailer, have the rear axle gear lubricant changed every
7,500 miles
(12 500 km).
Inspect the complete system. Inspect brake lines and hoses for proper hookup, binding, leaks,
cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect disc brake pads for wear and rotors for surface condition. Also
inspect drum brake linings for wear and cracks. Inspect other brake parts, including drums,
wheel cylinders, calipers, parking brake, etc. The parking brake is self-adjusting and
no manual
adjustment is required. You may need to have your brakes inspected more often if your driving
habits or conditions result in frequent braking.
NOTE: A low brake fluid level can indicate worn disc brake pads which may need to be serv-
iced. Also, if the brake system warning light stays on or comes on, something may be wrong
with the brake system. See “Brake System Warning Light” in the Index.
If your anti-lock brake
system warning light stays on, comes on or flashes, something may be wrong with the anti-lock
brake system. See “Anti-Lock Brake System Warning Light” in the Index.
