Refer to the Maintenance
Schedule to determine
how often you should
check the fluid level in
your clutch master
cylinder reservoir and
for the proper fluid. See
“Owner Checks and
Services” and
“Recommended Fluids
and Lubricants” in the
Index.
How to Check
You do not need to check the fluid level unless you
suspect a clutch problem. To check the fluid level, take
the cap
off. If the fluid reaches the step inside the
reservoir, the fluid level
is correct.
Engine Coolant
The following explains your cooling system and how to
add coolant when it is low.
If you have a problem with
engine overheating, see “Engine Overheating” in the
Index.
The proper
coolant for your Chevrolet will:
0 Give freezing protection down to -34°F (-37°C).
Give boiling protection up to 262°F (128°C).
Protect against rust and corrosion.
0 Help keep the proper engine temperature.
0 Let the warning lights work as they should.

If you need more coolant, add the proper mix at the
surge tank, but only when the engine is cool.
When your engine is cold, the coolant level should be at
the FULL
COLD mark.
See “Low Coolant Light”
in
the Index. When replacing
the pressure
cap, make sure it is tight.
Surge Tank Pressure Cap
NOTICE:
Your surge tank cap is a 18 psi (124 kPa)
pressure-type cap and must be tightly installed to
prevent coolant loss and possible engine damage
from overheating.
If this light comes on, it means you’re low on engine
coolant. When
you replace your surge tank pressure cap, a GM
cap is recommended.
