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,
see the Index under
Engine Overheating.
The proper coolant for your Chevrolet
will:
Give freezing protection down to
Give boiling protection up to 262°F
Protect against rust and corrosion.

should.
What to Use: Use a mixture of one-half
clean water (preferably distilled) and
one-half antifreeze that meets "GM
Specification 1825-M," which won't
damage aluminum parts.
You can also
use a recycled coolant conforming to
GM Specification 1825-M with a
complete coolant flush and refill.
If you
use this mixture, you don't need to add
anything else.
If you have a 2.2L LA engine, your
engine coolant system will have a
coolant recovery
tank. If you have a
3.1L V6 engine, your engine coolant
system will have a coolant surge
tank.
There are important differences between
these two cooling systems. Read this section carefully.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Headlight Wiring
The headlight wiring is protected by a
circuit breaker in the fuseblock. An
electrical overload will cause the lights
to go on and
off, or in some cases to
remain
off. If this happens, have your
headlight system checked right away.
To access the headlight circuit breaker,
squeeze the plastic clip together and
remove.
Windsheld Wipers
The windshield wiper motor is protected
by a circuit breaker and a fuse.
If the
motor overheats due to heavy snow, etc.,
the wiper will stop until the motor
cools.
If the overload is caused by some
electrical problem, have it fixed.
Power Windows and Other
Power Options
Circuit breakers in the fuse panel protect
the power windows and other power
accessories. When the current load is
too heavy, the circuit breaker opens and
closes, protecting the circuit until the
problem is fixed.
