How to Add Coolant to the Coolant
Recovery Bank
If yon .haven’t found a problem yet, but
the COOhint level isn’t at ur above the
“FULL COLD” mark, add a 50/50
mixture of clew wata (preferably
distilled) and a proper antifreeze at the
coolant‘rtyxwery ta&. (see “~nginef
Coolant” in the Index for more infor-
mation about the prop coolaat mix.)
c
I
NOTICE:
I
In cold weather, water can freeze and
crack the engine, radiator, heater core
and other parts. Use the warn-
mended coolant.
When the coolant in the coalant recovery
tank is at or above the “FULL GOLD”
mark, .start your vehicle.
If the overheat warning continues, there’s
one more thing you can try. You can add
the proper coolant mix directly to the
radiator, but be sure the cooling system is
cool before you do it.

1. You can remove the radiator pressure
cap when
the cooling system,
including the radiator pressure cap anc
upper radiator hose, is no longer hot.
Turn the pressure cap
slowly to the
left until it first stops. (Don’t press
down while turning the pressure cap.)
If you hear a hiss, wait for that to stop
A hiss means there is still some
pressure left.
~. Then keep turning the pressure cap,
but
now push down as you turn it.
Remove the pressure cap.
3. After the engine cools, open the air
bleed valves on the heater return hose
and water pump inlet.

See if any one of these is true for you:
0 Most trips are less than 4 miles
(6 km).
It’s below freezing outside and most
trips are less than
10 miles (1 6 km).
The engine is at low speed most of the
time (as in door-to-door delivery, or
in
stop-and-go traffic).
0 You tow a trailer often.
@ Most trips are through dusty places.
If any one
of these is true for your
vehiclej
then you need to change your oil
and filter every 3,000 miles (5 000 km) or
3 months - whichever comes first.
If none of them is true, change the oil
every
7,500 miles (12 500 km) or 12
months - whichever comes first. Change
the filter at the first oil change and at
every other oil change after that.
Engine Coolant Heater (Engine Block
Heater):
An engine coolant heater can be a big
help
if you have to park outside in very
cold weather,
0” F (- 18 “C) or colder. If
your vehicle has this option, see “Engine
Coolant Heater”
in the Index.
What to Do with Used Oil:
Did you know that used engine oil
contains elements that may be unhealthy
for your skin and could even cause
cancer? Don’t let used oil stay on your
skin for very long. Clean your skin and
nails with soap and water, or a good hand
cleaner. Wash or properly throw away
clothing or rags containing used engine
oil. (See the manufacturer’s warnings
about the use and disposal
of oil
products.)
Used oil can be a real threat to the
environment. If
you change your own oil,
be sure to drain all free-flowing oil from
the filter before disposal. Don’t ever
dispose of oil by putting it in the trash,
pouring
it on the ground, into sewers, or
into streams
or bodies of water. Instead,
recycle it by taking it to a place that
collects used oil. If you have a problem
properly disposing of your used oil, ask
your dealer, a service station or a local
recycling center for help.

Engine Coolant
The following explains your cooling
system and how to add coolant when
it
is low. If you have a problem with
engine overheating or if you need
to add
coolant to your radiator, see “Engine
Overheating” in the Index.
The proper coolant for your Chevrolet
will:
0 Give freezing protection down to
Give boiling protection up to 262°F
Protect against rust and corrosion.
0 Help keep the proper engine
Let the warning lights work as they
-34°F (-37°C).
(128°C).
temperature.
should.
What to Use:
Use a mixture of one-half clean water
(preferably distilled) and one-half
antifreeze that meets “GM Specification
1825M,” which won’t damage aluminum
parts.
You can also use a recycled coolant
conforming to GM Specification
1825M
with a complete coolant flush and refill. If
you use
this mixture, you don’t need to
add anything else.
NOTICE:
If you use an improper coolant mix,
your engine could overheat and be
badly damaged. The repair cost
wouldn’t be covered by your war-
ranty.
Too much water in the mix can
freeze and crack the engine, radiator,
heater core and other parts.
