2009 CHEVROLET KODIAK oil type

What Fuel to Use in Canada
Notice:Use of diesel fuel other than Ultra Low
Sulfur Diesel (15 ppm sulfur maximum) or engine oil
other than low ash CJ-4 oil will cause permanent
damage to the DPF and related components.
This damage would not be covered by your
warranty.
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 Diesel and Low
Sulfur Diesel fuels are available in the United States and
Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel fuel is available in Canada. In
Mexico, Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel fuel is not available in all
regions.
At a minimum, the diesel fuel you use should meet the
latest version of specification CAN/CGSB-3.517 (ULS)
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 to the
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.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 might 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 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 (ULS) 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 the 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 the 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.

First, use these pictures to decide what kind of wheels
you have.
Then, refer to the following steps for the wheels
you have.Hub-Piloted Wheels, 8-Hole or 10-Hole
The studs and nuts used with these wheels have
right-hand threads.
1. With intermittent pilot pads, position a pad at
12 o’clock to center the wheel and reduce run-out.
2. Put the tire and rim assembly on the axle hub.
Install the outer rear tire and rim assembly so
that its valve stem is exactly opposite the valve stem
on the inner tire and rim assembly.
3. Put on the wheel nuts.
4. Finger-tighten the nuts.
5. Oil the surfaces (B)
between the nuts (C)
and washers (A). Do
not oil the studs or the
threads of the nut. Hub-Piloted Type,

(14)= Adjust tire pressures as indicated on the
Certification or Tire Information label for optimum tire
life. SeeTires on page 5-76for further details.
Check tires for excessive or abnormal wear or damage.
Also check for damaged wheels. Replace wheels
and/or tires as needed.
(15)= Check spring-to-axle U-bolts and shackle bolts
for proper torque. See the service manual for torque
sequence and specifications. When parts are replaced,
the torque must be checked and adjusted more often
during the first 6,000 miles (10 000 km). Check torque at
500 miles (800 km) and 2,000 miles (3 000 km) after
first use of parts.
(16)= Check complete exhaust system, including DPF
pressure lines, and cab areas near the exhaust system
for broken, damaged, missing, or out-of-position parts.
Also inspect for open seams, holes, loose connections, or
other conditions which could let exhaust fumes seep into
the driver compartment. Needed repairs should be made
at once. To help maintain system integrity, replace
exhaust pipes whenever a new muffler is put on.
(17)= Check all gasoline engine drive belts for cracks,
fraying, and wear. Replace as needed.
(18)= Adjust valve lash. Incorrect valve clearance will
result in increased engine noise and reduced engine
output.(19)= With the engine off and below normal operating
temperature, check to see that the thermostatically
controlled engine cooling fan can be rotated by hand on
viscous-operated drives. Replace as needed.
(20)= Check shields and underhood insulation for
damage or looseness. Adjust or replace as needed.
(21)= Inspect parking brake drum and linings for wear
or cracks and check linkage and adjustment.
(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 6-31.
•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.
SeeFront Wheel Bearings with Oil-Filled Hubs on
page 5-75andPart C: Recommended Fluids
and Lubricants on page 6-31.
(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.
