Service Procedure, ID Label & Claim Information
SERVICE PROCEDURE1. The transaxle in each involved vehicle is to be replaced using the procedures listed in the appropriate Service Manual, including observing the CAUTIONS and making the adjustments required.
Refer to the 1990 Pontiac Grand Am and Sunbird Service Manuals, Section 7B, Page 7B-14, for an improved procedure to remove and replace the manual transaxle assembly.
2. Install a Campaign Identification Label.
CAMPAIGN IDENTIFICATION LABEL
Each vehicle modified in accordance with the instructions outlined in this Product Campaign Bulletin will require a "Campaign Identification Label." Each label provides a space to include the campaign number, the five digit dealer code of the dealer performing the campaign service, and the date the vehicle was campaigned. This information may be inserted with a typewriter or ballpoint pen. Install the label only on a clean, dry surface of the radiator baffle where it is readily visible. (Additional campaign labels are available on stationery order as Form 7901-709).
