Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Here are things some owners ask about. None of these indicate a problem
with your fuel gage:
0 At the gas station, the gas pump shuts off before the gage r\
eads full.
The fuel tank will take either a little more or a little less fuel to fill up
than the gage shows.
The gage moves a little when you turn a corner or speed up.
The gage doesn’t go back to empty when you turn off the ignition.
For your fuel tank capacity, see the Index under “Fluid Capacities.”
Oil Pressure Gage
Standard Cluster Digital Cluster
The oil pressure gage shows the engine oil pressure in psi (pounds pe\
r
square inch) when the engine is running. Canadian vehicles indicate
pressure in
kPa (kilopascals). Oil pressure may vary with engine speed,
outside temperature and oil viscosity, but readings above the low pressure
zone indicate the normal operating range.
A reading in the low pressure zone may be caused by a dangerous\
ly low oil
level or other problems causing low oil pressure.
On the digital cluster, a box around the oil pressure symbol \
will begin to
flash when the oil pressure
is low.

Pull out the dipstick and clean it with a paper towel or cloth, then push it
back in all the way. Remove it again, keeping
the tip lower.

When to Add Oil
If the oil is at or below the ADD line, then you’ll need to add some oil. But
you must use the right kind. This section explains what kind of oil to use.
For crankcase capacity, see “Capacities and Specifications” \
in the Index.
L
NOTICE:
Don’t add too much oil. If your engine has so much oil that the
oil level gets above the cross-hatched area that shows the pro\
per
operating range, your engine could be damaged.

Not all air conditioning refrigerants are the same. If the air conditioning
system in your vehicle needs refrigerant, be sure the proper refrigerant is
used. If you’re not sure, ask your
GM dealer. For additional information, see
your “Warranty and Owner Assistance Information” booklet.

will cause
compressor failure, refrigerant oil sludge, or poor air conditioning system performance.
