is in the
acceptable range,
push the dipstick
back in all the
way; then flip the
handle down to
lock the dipstick
in place.
How to Add Fluid
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine what kind of transmission
fluid to use. See “Recommended Fluids and Lubricants”
in the Index.
If the fluid level is low, add only enough of the proper fluid to bring the
level up to the COLD area for a cold check or the
HOT area for a hot check.
It doesn’t take much fluid, generally less than a pint.
Don’t overfill. We
recommend you use only fluid labeled DEXRON@-I11 or DEXRON@-IIE,
because fluids with that label are made especially for your automatic
transmission. Damage caused by fluid other than DEXRON@-I11 or
DEXR0N’-IIE is not covered by your new vehicle warranty.
0 After adding fluid, recheck the fluid level as described under “How to
Check.”
0 When the correct fluid level is obtained, push the dipstick ba\
ck in all
the way; then flip the handle down to lock the dipstick in place.
Manual Transmission Fluid
When to Check
A good time to have it checked is when the engine oil is changed. However,
the fluid in your manual transmission
doesn’t require changing.
How to Check
Because this operation can be a little difficult, you may choose to have this
done at a
GM dealership Service Department.
If you do it yourself, be sure to follow all the instructions\
here, or you could get a false reading.

Accelerator Control System
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine how often the a\
ccelerator linkage pivot points must be lubricated and what type
of lubricant to use.
Accelerator cables and cruise control cables should not be lubr\
icated. Any
cables that are worn or are hard
to pull should be replaced.
When cleaning the engine compartment with water or steam, avoid\
directing the flow onto the throttle linkage
in a manner that would cause moisture to
enter the cables.
Hood Latches and Hood Hinge
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine how to lubricate\
the hood
latch and hood hinge assembly.
Propeller Shaft Slip Splines/Universal Joints
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine how often the slip and
universal joints must be lubricated and what type
of lubricant to use.
Body
Normal use of your vehicle will cause metal to metal wear at some points on
the cab and body if they are not lubricated.
For exposed surfaces, such as door checks, door lock bolts, lock s\
triker
plates, dovetail bumper wedges, etc., a thin film
of engine oil should be
applied.
Where oil holes are provided in the body or cab, a dripless oil can be used.
The seat adjusters and seat track should be lubricated with chassis\
grease.
Door weatherstrips and rubber hood bumpers should be wiped clea\
n with a wet cloth and lightly coated with a rubber lubricant.
Never use too much
of any lubricant and be sure to wipe up any extra
lubricant when you are finished.
Window regulators and controls are inside the doors. They are lubricated
with a long lasting grease.
If lubrication is required your dealer should
perform this service.
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine how often to lubricate
these items and what type of lubricant to use.

Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine
how often to lubricate them
and what type
of lubricant to use.
You should not use penetrating oils because they could wash out the factory
installed lubricant and cause
the lock to bind. De-icers which contain
alcohol could
also wash away the lubricant, so be sure to lubricate the lock
after using a de-icer of this type.
Tailgate Handle
The tailgate handle pivot points on your vehicle should be lubricated to keep
the handle working smoothly.
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule to determine
how often to lubricate them
and what type
of lubricant to use.
Exhaust System

your vehicle if you notice:
Engine misfiring
Loss of performance
Other unusual operating conditions
Have your engine and exhaust system serviced regularly.
Three- Way Catalytic Converter
Your vehicle's three-way catalytic converter is designed to reduce the
pollutants in your vehicle's exhaust. Use only unleaded fuel in your vehicle.
If you use leaded fuel, you could damage your three-way catalytic converter
and other engine components.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (SERVICE ENGINE SOON )
This light on your instrument panel lets you know when your emission
system needs service. The light will come on briefly when you start your
engine to let you know that the system
is working. If it does not come on
when you start your engine, or if it comes on and stays on while you're
driving, your system may
need service. Your vehicle should still be
driveable, but you should have your system serviced right away.

This system has an oxygen (02) sensor that helps keep your engine’s
air-fuel mixture at a proper level. Use only unleaded fuel in your vehicle.
If
you use leaded fuel, you could damage your oxygen (02) sensor and affect
your vehicle’s emissions.
Loading Your Vehicle
The CertificatiodTire label is found on the driver’s door lock pillar. The
label shows the size of your original tires and the inflation pressures needed
to obtain the
gross weight capacity of your vehicle. This is called the
GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating). The GVWR includes the weight of
the vehicle,
all occupants, fuel and cargo.
The CertificatiodTire label
also tells you the maximum weights for the
front and rear axles, called Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR). To find out
the actual
loads on your front and rear axles, you need to go to a weigh
station and weigh
your vehicle. Your dealer can help you with this. Be sure
to spread out your load equally
on both sides of the centerline.
Never exceed the GVWR for your vehicle, or the Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR) for either the front or rear axle.
And, if you do have a heavy load, you should spread it out.
