1995 CHEVROLET TAHOE spare tire

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine NOTICE:
Don’t let anyone tell you that underinflation or overinflation is
all right. It’s not.
If your tires don’t have enough air
(underinflation) you can get:
Too much flexing
0 Too much heat
Tire overloading
Bad wear
Bad handling
0 Bad fuel economy.
If your tires have too much air (overinflation), you can get:
Unusual wear
Bad handling
Rough ride
Needless damage from road hazards.
When to Check
Check your tires once a month or more. Also, check the tire pressure of the
spare tire.
How to Check
Use a good quality pocket-type gage to check tire pressure. Simply looking
at the tires will not tell you the pressure, especially if you have radial tires
- which may look properly inflated even if they’re underinflated.
If your tires have valve caps, be sure
to put them back on. They help prevent
leaks by keeping
out dirt and moisture.
Tire Inspection and Rotation
Tires should be inspected every 6,000 to 8,000 miles (10 000 to 13 000 km)
for any signs
of unusual wear. If unusual wear is present, rotate your tires as
soon as possible and check wheel alignment. Also check for damaged tires
or wheels. See “When it’s Time for New Tires’’ and “Wheel Replacement”
later
in this section for more information.

Key Lock Cylinders
Lubricate the key lock cylinders with the lubricant specified in Part D.
Body Lubrication
Lubricate all fuel door, body hood and body door hinges, rear compartment
hinges, tailgate and tailgate handle pivot points, tailgate mounted spare tire
carrier pivot points, latches, locks, and folding seat hardware. Part
D tells
you what to use. More frequent lubrication may be required when exposed
to a corrosive environment.
Starter Switch
1. Before you start, be sure you have enough room around the vehicle. It
should be parked on a level surface.
2. Firmly apply both the parking brake (see “Parking Brake” in the Index
if necessary) and the regular brake.
NOTE:
Do not use the accelerator pedal, and be ready to turn off the
engine immediately
if it starts.
3. On automatic transmission vehicles, try to start the engine in each gear.
The starter should work only
in PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N). If the
starter works
in any other position, your vehicle needs service.
On manual transmission vehicles, put the shift lever
in NEUTRAL (N),
push the clutch down halfway and try to start the engine. The starter
should work
only when the clutch is pushed down all the way to the
floor. If the starter works when the clutch isn’t pushed all the way
down, your vehicle needs service.
