Towing
Your
Vehicle
Try to have a GM dealer
or
a
professional towing service tow your
Geo. The usual towing equipment is
a
sling-type
(A)
or a wheel-lift (B) or car carrier (C) tow truck.
If your vehicle has been changed or modified since it was factory-new by adding aftermarket items like fog lamps, aero skirting, or special tires and wheels, these instructions and illustrations may not be correct.
Before you do anything, turn on the hazard warning flashers.
When you call, tell the towing service:
A
dolly must be used when towing from the front.
That your vehicle has rear-wheel drive, or that it has the four-wheel-drive option.
The make, model, and year of your vehicle.
Whether you can still move the shift levers for the transmission and transfer case,
if
you have one.
If there was an accident, what
was
damaged.
When the towing service arrives, let the tow operator know that this manual contains detailed towing instructions and illustrations. The operator may want to see them.

Problems on the Road
Don’t have your vehicle towed with the rear wheels in contact with the ground.
If a vehicle must be towed from the front with sling-type or wheel lift equipment, the rear wheels must be supported on a dolly.
If your vehicle has four-wheel drive, don’t have it towed on the front wheels unless you must. If a vehicle with four-wheel drive must be towed on the front wheels, set your manual, free-wheeling hubs to

Steam Is Coming from Your
Engine:
If you get the overheat warning but see or hear no steam, the problem may not be too serious. Sometimes the engine can get a little too hot when you:
Climb a long hill on a hot day.
Stop after high speed driving.
Idle for long periods in traffic.
Tow a trailer.
If you get the overheat warning with no sign of steam, try this for a minute or so:
1.
If you have an air conditioner, turn it off.
2.
Turn on your heater to full hot at the highest fan speed and open the window
as
necessary.
3.
If you’re in a traffic jam, shift to
N
(Neutral).
If you no longer have the overheat warning, you can drive. Just to be safe, drive slower for about ten minutes. If the warning doesn’t come back on, you can drive normally.
If the warning continues, pull over, stop, and park your vehicle right away.
If there’s still no sign of steam, you can idle the engine for two or three minutes while you’re parked, to see if the warning stops. But then, if you still have the warning, TURN
OFF
THE
ENGINE
AND
OUT
OF THE VEHICLE until it cools down.

How to Add
Coolant to the Coolant
Recovery Tank
If you haven’t found a problem yet, but the coolant level isn’t at or above
FULL,
add a
50/50
mixture of
clean water
(preferably distilled) and the proper antifreeze at the coolant recovery tank. (See “Engine Coolant” in the
Index for more information about the proper coolant mix.)
A
Adding only
plain water
to

can be
dangerous. Plain water,
or some
other liquid, like
alcohol, can

before the proper coolant
mix
will.

How to
Add Coolant
to the
Radiator
1.
You can remove the radiator pressure cap when the cooling system, including the radiator pressure cap and upper radiator hose, is no longer hot. Turn the pressure cap slowly to the left until it first stops. (Don't press down while turning the pressure cap.)
If
you hear a hiss, wait for that to stop.
A
hiss means there is still some pressure left.
2.
Then keep turning the pressure cap, but now push down as you turn it.
Remove the pressure cap.
3.
Fill the radiator with the proper mix, up to the base of the filler neck.
4.
Then fill the coolant recovery tank to the
FULL
mark.
5.
Put the cap back on the coolant recovery tank, but leave the radiator pressure cap off.
6 .
Start the engine and let it run until you can feel the upper radiator hose getting hot.
Watch out for the engine fan.
By this time, the coolant level inside the radiator filler neck may be lower.
If the level is lower, add more of the proper mix through the filler neck until the level reaches the base of the filler neck. r
Problems on the Road
Then replace the pressure cap. Be sure the ears on the pressure cap line up like this.

Tire
Goes
Hut
It’s unusual for a tire to “blow out’’ while you’re driving, especially if you maintain your tires properly. If air goes out of a tire, it’s much more likely to leak out slowly. But if you should ever have a “blowout,
” here are a few tips about what to expect and what to do:
If a front tire fails, the flat tire will create a drag that pulls the vehicle toward that side. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal and grip the steering wheel firmly. Steer to maintain lane position, then gently brake to a stop well out of the traffic lane.
A
rear blowout, particularly on a curve, acts much like a skid and may require the same correction you’d use in a skid.
In any rear blowout, remove your foot from the accelerator pedal. Get the vehicle under control by steering the way you want the vehicle to go. It may be very bumpy and noisy, but you can still steer. Gently brake to a stop, well off the road if possible.
If your tire goes flat, the next section shows how to use your jacking equipment to change a flat tire safely.
ChanginQ a
Flat lire
If a tire goes flat, avoid further tire and wheel damage by driving slowly to a level place. Turn on your hazard warning flashers.
..

208
CAUTION
A
Changing a tire can cause an injury. The vehicle can slip off the jack and roll over you or other people. You and they could be badly injured.
Find a level place to change your tire. To help prevent the vehicle from moving:
1.
Set the parking brake firmly.
2.
Put the shift lever in
P
(Park).
3.
Shift a manual transmission to
1
(First) or
R
(Reverse).
4.
If you have a four-wheel-drive vehicle, be sure the transfer case is in a drive gear
N
(Neutral).
5.
Turn off the engine.
To be even more certain the vehicle won’t move, you can put chocks at the front and rear of the tire farthest away from the one being changed. That would be the tire on the other side of the vehicle, at the opposite end.
I
The following steps will tell you how to use the jack and change a tire.
The equipment you’ll need
is
under the front seats.
The jack and wheel wrench are under the passenger’s seat.

Insert your key into the wheel lock and pull the wheel lock off.
Remove wheel nuts with the wheel wrench.
Remove the spare tire from the mounting bracket and place it near your flat tire.
Attach the jack handle to the jack bolt.
Rotate the jack handle clockwise (to the right). That will raise the lift head a little.
Using the wheel wrench, loosen all the wheel nuts. Don’t remove them yet.

If
You’re Stuck: In
Sand,
Mud,
Ice or
Snow
What you
don’t
want to do when your vehicle is stuck is to spin your wheels.
The method known as “rocking” can help you get out when you’re stuck, but you must use caution.
‘
If
you let your tires spin at
4 2
high speed, they can explode and you or others could be injured.
And, the transmission and other parts
of
the vehicle can overheat.
That could cause
an
engine compartment fire or other damage.
When you’re stuck, spin the wheels as little
as
possible. Don’t spin the wheels above
35
mph
(55
km/h) as shown on the speedometer.
Spinning
your
wheels can destroy parts of your
vehicle as well as
th
tires. If you
spin
the wheels
too fast while shifting your transmission
back
and forth,
you
can destroy your transmission.
Problems on the Road
Rocking
your vehicle to get
it
out:
First, turn your steering wheel left and right. That will clear the area around your front wheels. Then shift back and forth between
R
(Reverse) and a forward gear (or with a manual transmission, between First or
Second gear and Reverse), spinning the wheels as little as possible. Release the accelerator pedal while you shift, and press lightly on the accelerator pedal when the transmission is in gear.
If that doesn’t get you out after a few tries, you may need to be towed out. Or, you can use your recovery hooks. If you do need to be towed out, see
‘‘Towing
Your
Vehicle” in the Index.
Using the Recovery Hooks
If you ever get stuck in sand, mud, ice, or snow, your Tracker is equipped with recovery hooks. The recovery hooks are provided at the front and rear of your vehicle. You may need to use them if you’re stuck off-road and need to be pulled to some place where you can continue driving.
The recovery hooks when used, are under a lot of force.
Always pull the vehicle straight out. Never pull on the hooks at a sideways angle. The hooks could break off and you or others could be injured from the chain or cable snapping back.
I
Never
use
the recovery hooks to tow the vehicle.
Your
Tracker could be damaged and it would no1 be covered by warrant]
