2007 CHEVROLET KODIAK oil type

A non-scrubbing action, wet-type cleaner which
uses a cassette with a fabric belt to clean the tape
head can be used. This type of cleaning cassette
will not eject on its own. A non-scrubbing action
cleaner may not clean as thoroughly as the
scrubbing type cleaner. The use of a non-scrubbing
action, dry-type cleaning cassette is not
recommended.
After the player is cleaned, press and hold the
eject button for three seconds to reset the
CLN indicator. The radio will display --- to show
the indicator was reset.
Cassettes are subject to wear and the sound
quality may degrade over time. Always make sure
the cassette tape is in good condition before
the tape player is serviced.Care of Your CDs
Handle CDs carefully. Store them in their original
cases or other protective cases and away from
direct sunlight and dust. The CD player scans the
bottom surface of the disc. If the surface of a
CD is damaged, such as cracked, broken,
or scratched, the CD will not play properly or not
at all. If the surface of a CD is soiled, take a
soft, lint free cloth or dampen a clean, soft cloth in
a mild, neutral detergent solution mixed with
water, and clean it. Make sure the wiping process
starts from the center to the edge.
Do not touch the bottom side of a CD while
handling it; this could damage the surface. Pick up
CDs by grasping the outer edges or the edge of
the hole and the outer edge.

What Fuel to Use in Canada
Canadian fuels are blended for seasonal changes.
Diesel Type “A” fuel is blended for better cold
weather starting (below 0°F or−18°C); however,
you may notice some power and fuel economy
loss. If Type “A” fuel is used in warmer
temperatures, stalling and hard starting may
occur. Diesel Type “B” fuel is blended for
temperatures above 0°F (−18°C).
It is important that diesel-powered trucks are
refueled only with ultra low-sulfur fuel. The
emission control system requires the use of diesel
fuel with ultra low-sulfur (0.0015% by weight, or
15 ppm, maximum) content. Both ultra low-sulfur
and higher sulfur diesel fuels are available in
the United States. Use of fuels with higher-sulfur
content will affect the function of the emission
components and may cause reduced performance,
excessive smoke, and unpleasant odor.
At a minimum, the diesel fuel you use should
meet the latest version of specification
CAN/CGSB-3.517 (Low Sulfur Diesel) in Canada.
In addition, the Engine Manufacturers Association
(EMA) has identified properties of an improved
diesel fuel for better engine performance and
durability (FQP-1A). Diesel fuels corresponding tothe EMA description could provide better starting,
less noise, and better vehicle performance. If
there are questions about the fuel you are using,
contact your fuel supplier.
If your vehicle has the 6.6L engine, it is acceptable
to use diesel fuel containing up to 5% biodiesel
(B5), but the final blended fuel must meet the same
specification, CAN/CGSB-3.517 (Low Sulfur Diesel)
in Canada, as other fuels used in your vehicle, and
the biodiesel used for making this fuel must meet
the latest version of ASTM specification D 6751.
Biodiesel is produced from vegetable oils or animal
fat that have been chemically modified to reduce
the possibility of damage to your fuel system and
engine. Higher concentration (i.e., greater than B5)
biodiesel-containing fuels or the use of unmodified
bio-oils blended into diesel fuel at any concentration
is not recommended and could damage your fuel
system and engine. Such damage would not be
covered by your warranty. If there are questions
about the biodiesel-containing fuels you are using,
contact your fuel supplier.

Other Service Items
Fuel Filter
Fuel Filter/Pressure Regulator
(Gasoline Engines)
The steel fuel filter/pressure regulator is located
near the engine compartment on the driver’s
side frame rail. If your vehicle has a rear steel fuel
tank, the fuel filter/pressure regulator is located
near the rear fuel tank, on the driver’s side frame
rail. SeeScheduled Maintenance on page 363
for recommended service intervals.
If your vehicle is equipped with the optional Davco
spin-on type filter, it is located on the driver’s
side frame rail.
Fuel Filter (Diesel Engines)
If you have a diesel engine, your fuel filter is
located in the engine compartment on the driver’s
side of the vehicle, or along the driver’s side
frame rail. See “Fuel Filter Replacement” earlier in
this section for further information.
Also seeScheduled Maintenance on page 363for
recommended service intervals.
Primary Fuel Filter and Water
Separator
If you have a diesel
engine, you may have
this spin-on filter. It
is located on the driver’s
side frame rail.
It has a clear plastic drain bowl at the bottom.
Check the drain bowl occasionally for any water or
particles.
To drain the bowl, do the following:
1. Shut off the engine.
2. Partially open the drain valve at the bottom of
the filter.

(22)= Wheel bearing service:
•Grease type — Clean, inspect, and lubricate
with the proper wheel bearing grease at
designated intervals or when hubs are
removed. SeePart C: Recommended Fluids
and Lubricants on page 397.
•Oil-filled type — Some wheel bearings are
lubricated by axle lubricant. When you
have oil-filled hubs, use lubricant identical
to that used in the axle. Lubricant change
intervals are the same for front and rear
axles. However, you must maintain the proper
oil level between change intervals. See
Front Wheel Bearings with Oil-Filled Hubs
on page 319andPart C: Recommended
Fluids and Lubricants on page 397.
(23)= Check the air intake system installation
to see that gaskets are seated properly and
all hose connections, fasteners, and other
components are tight. Tighten connections
and fasteners or replace parts as required.(24)= Evaporative Control System Service,
if equipped: Check all fuel and vapor lines and
hoses for proper connections and correct routing
(or every 24 months, whichever occurs first).
Replace parts as needed.
(25)= Replace spark plugs. Inspect wires for
damage. Check the wire boot and boot heat
shield fit at spark plugs and coil. Replace parts
as needed.
(26)= Check the fuel tank, fuel cap and fuel lines
for damage which could cause leakage. Inspect
fuel cap for correct sealing ability and any
indications of damage. Check fuel cap gasket
for even filler neck imprint. Replace parts as
needed.
(27)= Check Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR)
system as described in the service manual.
