TURBO INDUCTION TUBE MAY CONTACT W/UNDER HOOD BLANKET

TURBO INDUCTION TUBE CONTACT WITH HOOD BLANKET

VEHICLES AFFECTED: 1987 J-CAR WITH 2.0L TURBO ------------------ ENGINE (VIN CODE M)

Some 1987 Sunbird turbo vehicles may experience turbo induction tube contact with the inner hood surface. The tube's surface finish will indicate contact by paint discolouration or finish abrasion. A tube with P/N 10106030 is available from General Motors Service Parts which will eliminate this hood contact problem.

When installing the tube, the connecting hoses should be free from any foreign material and be clamped securely to provide a good seal.

Use applicable labour operation and time.

General Motors bulletins are intended for use by professional technicians, not a "do-it-yourselfer". They are written to inform those technicians of conditions that may occur on some vehicles, or to provide information that could assist in the proper service of a vehicle. Properly trained technicians have the equipment, tools, safety instructions and know-how to do a job properly and safely. If a condition is described, do not assume that the bulletin applies to your vehicle, or that your vehicle will have that condition. See a General Motors dealer servicing your brand of General Motors vehicle for information on whether your vehicle may benefit from the information.
