About
Maintenance
We at General Motors want to help you
keep your vehicle in good working
condition. But we don’t know exactly
how you’ll drive it. You may drive very
short distances only a few times a week.
Or you may drive long distances all the
time in very hot, dusty weather. You
may use your vehicle in malting
deliveries. Or you may drive it to work,
to do errands
or
in many other ways.
Because of all the different ways people
use their GM vehicles, maintenance
needs vary. You may even need more
frequent checks and replacements than
you will find in the schedules in this
part.
So
please read this part and note
how you drive. If you have any
questions on how to keep your vehicle
in good condition, see your Chevrolet
dealer, the place many
GM
owners
choose to have their maintenance work
done. Your dealer can be relied upon to
use proper parts and practices.

Your Vehicle and the Environment
Proper vehicle maintenance not only
helps to keep your vehicle in good
working condition, but also helps the
environment. All recommended
maintenance procedures are important.
Improper vehicle maintenance or the
removal of important components can
significantly affect the quality of the air
we breathe. Improper fluid levels or
even the wrong tire inflation can
increase the level
of
emissions from
your vehicle.
To
help protect our
environment, and to help keep your
vehicle in good condition, please
maintain your vehicle properly.
How
This
Part is Organized
The remainder of this part is divided
into five sections:
“Section A: Scheduled Maintenance
Services” shows what to have done and
how often. Some
of
these services can
be complex,
so
unless you are technically
qualified and have the necessary
equipment, you should let your dealer’s
service department or another qualified
service center do these jobs.
If you are skilled enough to do some
work on your vehicle, you will probably
want to get the service information GM
publishes. You will find a list of
publications and how
to
get them in
this manual. See
Service Publications
in the
Index.
“Section
B:
Owner Checks and
Services” tells you what should be
checked whenever you stop for fuel. It
also explains what you can easily do to
help keep your vehicle in good
condition.
“Section
C:
Periodic Maintenance
Inspections” explains important
