maintenance CHEVROLET TRACKER 1995 Repair Manual

Throttle Linkage Inspection
Inspect the throttle linkage for interference or binding,
and for damaged or missing parts. Replace parts as
needed. Accelerator and cruise control cables should
not
be lubricated.
Rear Axle (All) and Front Axle
(Four-Wheel Drive) Service
Check the gear lubricant level and add if needed. See
“Rear Axle” and “Four-Wheel Drive”
in the Index. A
fluid loss may indicate a problem. Check the system(s),
and repair the system(s) if needed. Refer
to “Scheduled
Maintenance Services,” earlier
in this section, to
determine when to change the lubricant.
Brake System Inspection
Inspect the complete system. Inspect brake lines and
hoses for proper hookup, binding, leaks, cracks, chafing,
etc. Inspect disc brake pads for wear and rotors for
surface condition. Also inspect drum brake linings for
wear and cracks. Inspect other brake parts, including
drums, wheel cylinders, 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.
Clutch System Service
Check clutch pedal free travel and adjust as necessary.
See “Clutch Adjustment’’ in
the Index.

Service Manuals
Service manuals contain diagnosis and repair
information for all chassis and body systems. They
may
be useful for owners who wish to get a greater
understanding of their vehicle. They are also useful
for
owners with the appropriate skill level or training who
wish
to perform “do-it-yourself’ service. These are
authentic General Motors service manuals meant for
professional, qualified technicians.
Service Bulletins
Service bulletins covering various subjects are regularly sent to all General Motors’ dealerships. GM monitors
product performance in the field. When service methods
are found which promote better service on GM vehicles,
bulletins are created to help the technician perform better service. Service bulletins may involve any number of
vehicles. Some will describe inexpensive service; others will describe expensive service. Some will advise
of new
or unexpected conditions, and others may help avoid
future costly repairs. Service bulletins are meant for
qualified technicians. In some cases they refer to service manuals, specialized tools, equipment and safety
procedures necessary to service the vehicle. Since these
bulletins are issued throughout the model year and
beyond, an index
is required and published quarterly to
help identify specific bulletins. Subscriptions are
available. You can order an index at the toll-free numbers
listed previously, or ask a GM dealerhetailer to see
an
index or individual bulletin.
Owner Publications
Owner’s manuals, warranty folders and various owner
assistance booklets provide owners with general
operation and maintenance information.
