Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The above cleaners are EXCEL­
LENT CLEANERS when used
properly according to directions on
containers and are available
through the G.M. Parts System.
Never use gasoline, nail polish
remover
or acetone, lacquer thin­
ners, bleaches, etc.
Some basic
steps should be remembered before
the cleaning
is attempted:
1. Remove stains as quickly as pos­
sible before they become
"set."
2. Use a clean cloth or sponge and
change to a clean area fre­
quently. ( A
soft brush may be
used
if stains persist.)
3. Use solvent type cleaners in a
well ventilated area, also, do not
saturate the stained area.
4. If a ring should form after spot
cleaning, the entire area of the
trim assembly should be cleaned
immediately.
5. Follow instructions on the label
> of the cleaner.
Cleaning General Soilage or
Water
Spots from Fabric
Type Trim with Foam Type
Cleaner .
G.M. Multi-Purpose Powdered
Cleaner
is excellent for this type
cleaning and for cleaning a panel
section where a minor cleaning
ring may be left from spot cleaning.
Vacuum area thoroughly to re­
move excess loose dirt.
AL WAYS
clean a full trim assembly or com­
plete trim section-mask adjacent
trim along stitch
or welt lines. Mix
Multi-Purpose Powdered Cleaner
in strict accordance with directions
on label of container-mix propor­
tionally for smaller quantities.
USE

IMPORTANT-IM­
MEDIA TEL Y AFTER WIPING,
FORCE-DRY FABRIC WITH
AIR
HOSE, HEAT DRYER OR
HEAT LAMP. (Use caution with
heat dryer or heat lamp to prevent
damage to fabric.) When trim ma­
terials with a sheen or luster finish
are dry, wipe fabric lightly with a
soft,
dry clean cloth to restore
sheen or luster.
Spot Cleaning Fabric Type
Trim
Materials with Solvent
Type Cleaner
Before attempting to remove
spots or stains from fabric, deter­
mine
as accurately as possible the
nature and age of the spot or stain.
Some spots or stains can be re­
moved satisfactorily with water
or
mild soap solution (refer to ac­
companying
"Removal of Specific
Stains"). For best results , spots or

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine stains should be removed as soon
as possible. Some types of stains
or soilage such
as lipsticks, some
inks, certain types of grease etc.,
are extremely difficult and, in some
cases, impossible to completely re­
move. When cleaning this type
of'
stain or soi'lage, care must be taken
not to enlarge the soiled area.
It is
sometimes more desirable to have
a small stain than an enlarged stain
as a result of careless cleaning.
G.M. Fabric Cleaner (Solvent
Type)
is excellent for spot cleaning
stains containing grease, oil or fats
from fabric type trim. Excess stain
should be gently scraped off trim
material with a clean
DULL knife
or scraper.
USE VERY LITTLE
CLEANER, light pressure, and
clean cloths (preferably cheese
cloth). Cleaning action should be
, from outside of stain FEATHER­
ING towards center of stain and
constantly changing to a clean sec- tion
of cloth. When stain
is cleaned
from fabric, immediately dry area
with an air hose, heat dryer or
heat lamp to help prevent a clean­
ing ring (use caution with heat
dryer or heat lamp to prevent dam­
age to fabric material).
If a ring
forms,
immediately repeat the
cleaning operation over a slightly
larger area with special emphasis
on
FEATHERING towards center
of area.
If ring still persists, mark
off adjacent trim sections and clean
entire affected trim panel section
with G.M. Multi Purpose Pow­
dered Cleaner as previously de­
scribed under
"cleaning general
soilage
or water spots with foam
type
cleaner."
Removal of Specific Stains
Grease or Oil Stains -In­
cludes grease, oil, butter, marga­
rine,
shoe· polish, coffee with
cream, chewing gum, cosmetic
43
creams, vegetable oils, wax crayon,
tar and asphalts. Carefully scrape
off excess stain; then use Fabric
Cleaner (Solvent Type)
as pre­
viously described.
Shoe polish, wax
crayons, tar and asphalts will stain
if allowed to remain on trim; they
should be removed
as soon as pos­
sible-use caution
as cleaner will
dissolve them and may cause them
to bleed.
Non-Greasy Stains-Includes
catsup, coffee (black), egg, fruit,
fruit juice, milk, soft drinks,
wine,
vomit and blood. Carefully scrape
off excess stain; then sponge stain
with cool water.
If stain remains
use
Multi-Purpose Powdered
Cleaner (Foam Type) as previ­
ously described.
If odor persists
after cleaning vomitus or urine,
treat area with a water-baking soda
solution
(1 teaspoon baking soda
to 1 cup of tepid water)-finally, if
necessary, clean lightly with fabric

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine "HOT" MARK
"COLD" MARK
>-f.. __ "AOO"
If at operating temperature (ap­
proximately
150° F-hot to the
touch), fluid should be between
"HOT" and "COLD" marks. If at
room temperature (approximately
70° F), fluid should be between
"ADD" and "COLD" marks. Fluid
does not require periodic changing.
Hood Latches
Every 4 months or 6,000 miles,
. whichever occurs first, lubricate
hood latch assembly and hood
hinge assembly
as follows:
1. Wipe off any accumulation of
dirt or contamination on latch
parts.
2. Apply Lubriplate or equivalent
to latch pilot bolts and latch
locking plate.
3. Apply light engine oil to all
pivot points in release mecha­
nism,
as well as primary and
secondary latch mechanisms.
4. Lubricate hood hinges.
5. Make hood hinge and latch
mechanism functional check to
assure the assembly
is working
correctly.
Air Conditioning
Have your Chevrolet Dealer
check your Air Conditioning
sys­
tem at some time during the winter
months to
be sure there has been
no loss in cooling output. During
the summer,
see your Chevrolet
Dealer immediately if you suspect
the system
is not performing as it
should.
53
NOTE: On vehicles equipped
with a Four Season Air Condi­
tioning System, the system will not
operate below ambient tempera­
tures of
30°F. regardless of con­
trol position.
Cooling System Care
Check the coolant level at each
engine · oil change.
Engine Cooling System
The recovery type cooling sys­
tem is standard on all Chevrolet
passenger cars and
is designed to
maintain the engine at proper op­
erating temperatures.
The recovery
tank collects coolant that expands
with rising temperature that would
otherwise overflow from the
sys­
tem. When · the system temperature
drops, the coolant
is drawn from
the recovery tank back into the
radiator by the suction created by
coolant contraction. The cooling
system has been filled at the fac-

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Important Facts You Should
Know About Gasoline
Mileage and How to
Improve It
How you drive, where you drive,
and when you drive
all have an
effect on how many miles you can
get from a gallon of gasoline. The
careful attention you give your car
as far as maintenance and repairs
are concerned will also contribute
importantly to fuel economy.
Fuel Selection
Your vehicle is designed to op­
erate on unleaded or low-lead fuels
>of at least 91 Research Octane.
These fuels minimize spark plug
fouling and emission system
de­
terioration. Your engine does not
require premium fuel. Therefore,
its use would be an unnecessary
additional expense.
If the service
station gas pump has a symbol similar
to the following, use
un­
leaded or low-lead gasoline with a
symbol of 2. A higher number
is
satisfactory but not required.
"Jackrabbit" Starts
Gasoline can be conserved (and
engine and tire life prolonged) by
avoiding unnecessarily rapid
ac­
celeration away from lights and
stop signs.
Stop-And-Start Driving
Frequent stops and starts during
a. trip really cut down on your
64
miles per gallon. Plan even your
short shopping trips to take
advan­
tage of through streets to avoid
traffic lights.
Pace your driving like
the professional drivers to avoid
unnecessary stops.
Speed Versus Mileage
Excessive speed on the highway
raises your gas consumption
dras­
tically. Statistics prove that you
might save
as much as 19% on
your fuel bill by driving
50 MPH
instead of 70 MPH.
Excessive Idling
An idling engine uses gasoline,
too, (especially after a cold engine
start).
If you're faced with more
than a
few minutes wait you're
better
off to "turn off" and start
again later.
Sudden Stops
Sudden stops themselves don't

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine valve moves freely and is not stuck . (Don 't mistake normal spring
tension for a stuck valve.) Top the side of the carburetor sharply several times with a light tool such as a screwdriver handle or pliers. Replace the air cleaner and attempt to start the engine in the normal manner. IE) If the cor will start but stalls when hot or has a rough idle,
you can suspect a faulty IDLE ADJUSTMENT, a malfunctioning AUTOMATIC CHOKE or on extremely dirty and blocked AIR CLEANER ELEMENT. Replace paper element air cleaner if neces­sary. Idle' adjustment or automatic choke service (other than that outlined in paragraph 0 above) should be performed by your Chevrolet Dealer. If the above Fuel System checks and the checks suggested under the Electrical System following do not correct the malfunction, it is recommended that you return to your Authorized Chevrolet Dealer for further checks, adjustments or repairs.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM • If, when the ignition key is turned to "Start", the engine will not
turn over, you have good reason to suspect electrical trouble. NOTE: Never remove Delcotron bat lead without first disconnecting
baHery ground cable.
, (F) When there is no response at all to attempts to start the car, check the obvious-your AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SELECTOR LEVER must be in Neutral or Park position (manucil transmission
must have clutch depressed all the way to floor) before the engine can be started. Turning the IGNITION SWITCH rapidly back and forth several times will sometimes correct a poor internal switch contact. (G) The BATTERY may be discharged. If so, lights will be dim and the horn will have a poor tone if it will blow at all. Usually a garage recharge will be necessary to return the bottery to operation. Occasionally, however, a long drive will recharge the battery.
68
NOTE: If the battery is determined to be dead, and for no apparent reason, have your Authorized Chevrolet Dealer check the
baHery, the GENERATOR and the VOLTAGE REGULATOR.
GENERATOR trouble should already have been indicated by the generator indicator light on the instrument panel.
POOR BATTERY CONNECTIONS may be suspected if the car has operated properly a short time before and now not even the horn will operate. Check both ends of both battery cables. If the con­nections are corroded, a cor may sometimes be restored to opera­tion by removing all cable ends, scraping all contacting surfaces clean with a pen knife, and reassembling. If the cables are broken, they must be replaced. The power supply should now be restored unless the battery is dead.
(H) If, however, the lights and horn work properly but the starter will still not turn over, check the STARTER connections. A "dick" from the starter solenoid indicates that the wiring to the starter is properly installed. If the wiring seems to be clean and tightly in­stalled, the trouble is probably in the starter itself and should be referred to your Authorized Chevrolet Dealer.
When the engine will "turn over" but will not start, the following
items may be checked along with the Fuel Systems Checks listed
previously.
(I) With a clean dry cloth, wipe the ceramic portions of the spark plugs dry. In particularly damp or rainy weather dampness may be the cause of not starting, espe­cially when the engine is cold.
(J) Check the cables at the top of the distributor and coil as well Distributor and Coil Cables

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine FUSES AND CIRCUIT BREAKER:
The head lamp circuit s are protected by a circuit breaker in the light switch.
An electrical overload on the breaker will cause the lamps to go on and off, or
in some cases to remain off. If this condition develops, have your wiring circuits checked immediately.
Fuses, located in the Junction Block beneath the dash on the driver's side are:

An Air Conditioning high blower speed fuse, 30 amp. is located in an
In-line fuse holder running from junction block to Air Conditioning relay.
Do not use fuses of higher amperage rating than those recommended above.
Fusible Links are incorporated into the wiring system. These are wires of such a gauge that they will fuse (or melt) before damage occurs to an entire
wiring harness in the event of an electrical overload. See your Chevrolet Dealer if fusible link replacement becomes necessary.
