Radiator Pressure Cap
214
Your radiator cap is a 15 psi
(105 Wa) pressure-type cap and
must be tightly installed to prevent
coolant loss and possible engine
damage
from overheating. Be su
the arrows on the cap line up wi
the overflow tube on the radiato
filler neck.
When you replace your radiator
pressure cap, an
AC@ cap is
recommended.
Thermostat
Engine coolant temperature is
controlled by a thermostat in the engine
coolant system. The thermostat stops
the flow
of coolant through the radiator
until the coolant reaches a preset
temperature.
When you replace your thermostat, an
AC@ thermostat is recommended.
Power Steering Fluid
How To Check Power Steering Fluid:
Unscrew the cap and wipe the dipstick
with a clean rag. Replace the cap and
completely tighten it. Then remove the
cap again and look at the fluid level
on
the dipstick.
When the engine compartment is hot,
When the engine compartment is cool,
the
level should be at the
H mark.
the level should be at the
C mark.

Section C: Periodic Maintenance Inspections
Listed below are inspections and services which should be performed at least twice a year (for instance, each spring an\

You should let your GM dealer’s service department or other qualified service center do these jobs. Make sure any necessary
repairs are completed at once.

WHAT SHOULD BE DONE
Inspect the front and rear suspension and steering system for damaged, loose or missing parts,
signs of wear, or lack of lubrication. Inspect the power steering lines and hoses for pro\
per
hookup, binding,
leaks, cracks, chafing, etc. Clean and then inspect the drive axle boot seals for
damage, tears or leakage. Replace
seals if necessary.
Inspect the complete exhaust system. Inspect the body near the exhaust system.
Look for broken,
damaged, missing or out-of-position parts as well as open seams, holes, loose connections, or
other conditions which could cause
a heat build-up in the floor an or could let exhaust fumes
into
the vehicle. See the Index under Engine Exhaust.
Inspect the throttle linkage for interference or binding, and for damaged or missing parts.
Replace parts as needed.
-~~
Inspect the complete system. Inspect brake lines and hoses for proper hookup, binding, leaks,
cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect disc brake pads for wear and rot\
ors for surface condition. Inspect
other brake parts, including calipers, parking brake, etc. Check parking brake adjustment. You
may need to have your brakes inspected more often
if your driving habits or conditions result in
frequent braking.
NOTE: A low brake fluid level can indicate worn disc brake pads which \
may need to be
serviced.
Also, if the brake system warning light stays on or comes on, something may be wrong
with the brake system.
See the Ida under Brake System Warning Light. If your vehicle is
equipped with anti-lock brakes and the anti-lock brake system w\
arning light
stays on, comes on
or flashes, something may be wrong with the anti-lock brake system. See the
Index under Anti-
Lock Brake System Warning Light.
