With anti-lock, this light will come on
when you start your engine and it will
stay on for three seconds. That’s
normal.
If the light doesn’t come on,
have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn
you if there is a problem.
If the light stays on, turn the ignition
off. Or, if the light comes on and stays
on when you’re driving, stop as soon
as
possible and turn the ignition off. Then
start the engine again to reset the
system. If the light still stays on, or
comes on again while you’re driving,
your Chevrolet needs service.
If the
regular brake system warning light isn’t
on,
you still have brakes, but you don’t
have anti-lock brakes. If
the regular brake system warning
light is also on, you don’t have anti-lock
brakes and there’s a problem with your
regular brakes. See
Brake System
Warning Light
earlier in this part. If
the anti-lock brake system warning light
ever flashes, your anti-lock brake
system is still working but needs service
as soon as possible.

Adding Coolant -3. IL V6 Engine

level should be at
FULL COLD, or a
little
higher.

proper
mix at the surge tank.

Radiator Pressure Cap
NOTICE:
Your radiator cap is a 15 psi (105
kPa) pressure-type cap and must be
tightly installed to prevent coolant
loss and possible engine damage
from overheating. Be sure the arrows
on the cap line up with the overflow
tube on the radiator filler neck.
When
you replace your radiator
pressure cap, a
GM cap is recommended.
Thermostat
Engine coolant temperature is
controlled by a thermostat in the engine
coolant system. The thermostat stops
the flow of coolant through the radiator
until the coolant reaches a preset
temperature.
When
you replace your thermostat, an
AC@ thermostat is recommended.

Wheel Alignment and Tire Balance
The wheels on your vehicle were
aligned and balanced carefully at the
factory
to give you the longest tire life
and best overall performance.
In most cases, you will not need to have
your wheels aligned again. However, if
you notice unusual tire wear or your
vehicle pulling one way or the other, the
alignment may need
to be reset. If you
notice your vehicle vibrating when
driving on
a smooth road, your wheels
may need to be rebalanced.
Wheel Replacement
Replace any wheel that is bent, cracked
or badly rusted.
If wheel nuts keep
coming loose, the wheel, wheel bolts,
and wheel nuts should be replaced.
If
the wheel leaks air, replace it (except
some aluminum wheels, which can
sometimes be repaired). See your
Chevrolet dealer if any
of these
conditions exist.
Your dealer will know the kind of wheel
you need.
Each new wheel should have the same
load carrying capacity, diameter, width,
offset, and be mounted the same way as
the one it replaces.
If you need to replace any of your
wheels, wheel bolts, or wheel nuts,
replace them only with new
GM
original equipment parts. This way, you
will be sure
to have the right wheel,
wheel bolts, and wheel nuts for your
Chevrolet model.
I NOTICE:
The wrong wheel can also cause
problems with bearing life, brake
cooling, speedometer/odometer
calibration, headlight aim, bumper
height, vehicle ground clearance,
and tire or tire chain clearance to
the body and chassis.
