Removing Engine Oil
Dipstick
To check the level, remove the oil level dipstick
located inside the left front access door, wipe it
clean and reinsert it fully for accurate reading.
The oil level dipstick is marked "FULL" and
"ADD." The oil level should be maintained with-
in the margin, neither going above the "FULL"
line nor below the "ADD" line. Reseat the dip-
stick firmly after taking the reading. One (1)
quart will raise the oil level from "ADD" to
"FULL."
NOTE:
The oil dipstick is also marked "USE
SE ENGINE OIL," as a reminder to use only
SE oils.
TRANSMISSION
The transmission dipstick and fill tube is lo-
cated under the engine access cover on the left
side of the engine.
Use only automatic transmission fluids identi-
fied with the mark DEXRON® II. These fluids
have been specially formulated and tested for
use in your automatic transmission, and are
available from your GMC MotorHome dealer or
local service station.
Check the fluid level at each engine oil change
period. To make an accurate fluid level check :
1. Drive vehicle several miles, making fre-
quent starts and stops, to bring transmission
up to normal operating temperature (approx .
190-200° F.) .
2. Park vehicle on a level surface .
3. Apply parking brake.
4. Place selector lever in "PARK" and leave
engine running.
5 . Open all but the two rear windows, then
remove engine cover.
