         MAINTENANCE SERVICE INFORMATION

         SEVERE & NORMAL SERVICE DEFINITIONS

NOTE:    Use the Severe Service schedule if the vehicle to be serviced
         is operated under ANY (one or more) of these conditions:

         Service is recommended at mileage intervals based on vehicle
operation. Service schedules are based on the following primary
operating conditions:

         Normal Service

      *  Driven More Than 10 Miles Daily
      *  No Operating Conditions From Severe Service Schedule

MAINTENANCE INFORMATION 

      *  Short Trips In Freezing Temperatures
      *  Towing Or Heavily Loaded
      *  Severe Dust Conditions
      *  Hot Weather, Stop-And-Go Driving
      *  Extensive Idling

         CAMSHAFT TIMING BELT

CAUTION: Failure to replace a faulty camshaft timing belt may result
         in serious engine damage.

         The condition of camshaft drive belts should always be
checked on vehicles which have more than 50,000 miles. Although some
manufacturers do not recommend belt replacement at a specified
mileage, others require it at 60,000-100,000 miles. A camshaft drive
belt failure may cause extensive damage to internal engine components
on most engines, although some designs do not allow piston-to-valve
contact. These designs are often called "Free Wheeling".
         Many manufacturers changed their maintenance and warranty
schedules in the mid-1980's to reflect timing belt inspection and/or
replacement at 50,000-60,000 miles. Most service interval schedules in
this manual reflect these changes.
         Belts or components should be inspected and replaced if any
of the following conditions exist:

      *  Cracks Or Tears In Belt Surface
      *  Missing, Damaged, Cracked Or Rounded Teeth
      *  Oil Contamination
      *  Damaged Or Faulty Tensioners
      *  Incorrect Tension Adjustment

         Inspect camshaft timing belt condition every 20,000 miles.
Replace belt as necessary.
