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

for cracks, fraying, wear and
proper tension. Replace as needed. (Belts can have many
small cracks

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.
