Explanation of Scheduled
Maintenance Services
Following are explanations of the
services listed in Schedule
I and
Schedule 11.
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.
ITEM SERVICE
NO.
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
determine the preferred viscosity for
your vehicle’s engine (e.g., SAE 5W-
30 or SAE 10W-30), see
Engine Oil
in the Index.
the suspension and steering linkage.
Lubricate the transaxle shift linkage.
Inspection - For proper wear and
maximum tire life, rotate your tires
following the instructions in this
manual. See
Tires, Inspection G
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.
2. Chassis Lubrication - Lubricate
3. Tire and Wheel Rotation and
4. 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.)
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 deteriorated.
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.

Section C: Periodic Maintenance Inspections
Listed below are inspections and services which should be performed at least twice a year (for instance, each spring and fall). You should let
Jour
GM dealer’s service department or other qualified service center \
do these jobs. Make sure any necessary repairs are completed at once.

WHAT SHOULD BE DONE
Now and then, make sure all your belts, bucltles, latch plates, retractors, anchorages and
reminder systems are worlting properly. Look for any loose parts or damage. If you see anything
that might keep a restraint system from doing its job, have it repaired.
Inspect the front and rear suspension and steering system for damaged, loose or \
missing parts,
signs of wear, or lack
of lubrication. Inspect the power steering lines and hoses for proper hook-
up, binding, leaks, cracks, chafing, etc. Clean and then inspect the drive axle boot seals for
damage, tears or leakage. Replace seals if necessary.
~ ~~~~~~
Inspect the complete exhaust system. Inspect the body near the exhaust system. Look for broken,
damaged, missing or out-of-position parts as well as open seams, holes, loose connections, or
other conditions which could cause a heat build-up in the floor pan or could let exhaust fumes
into the vehicle. See
Engine Exhaust in the Index.
Inspect the throttle linkage for interference or binding, and for damaged or missing parts.
Replace parts as needed.
.-
Check the transaxle fluid level; add if needed. See Manual Transaxle in the Index. A fluid loss
may indicate a problem. Check the system and repair if needed.
Inspect the complete system. Inspect brake lines and hoses for proper hook-\
up, binding, leaks,
cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect disc brake pads for wear and rot\
ors for surface condition. Also inspect
drum brake linings for wear and cracks. Inspect other brake parts, including drums, wheel
cylinders, calipers, parking brake, etc. Check parking brake adj\
ustment. 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 serviced.
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.
