oil capacities CHEVROLET EXPRESS CARGO VAN 2007 1.G Owners Manual

When to Add Engine Oil
If the oil is below the cross-hatched area at the
tip of the dipstick, you need to add at least
one quart/liter of oil. But you must use the right
kind. This section explains what kind of oil to use.
For engine oil crankcase capacity, seeCapacities
and Specications on page 398.
Notice:Do not add too much oil. If the
engine has so much oil that the oil level gets
above the cross-hatched area that shows
the proper operating range, the engine
could be damaged.SeeEngine
Compartment Overview
on page 302for
the location of the
engine oil fill cap.
Be sure to add enough oil to put the level
somewhere in the proper operating range.
Push the dipstick all the way back in when
you are through.
