GOODWRENCH SERVICE REPLACEMENT ENGINES Section V Page 100 August 2004 88894118 262 CID New 4.3L 2001-02 Chevrolet, GMC G2,3 (L35)(4.3W) MT1 Engine-Specific Content: Harmonic Balancer, Balance Shaft, Oil Pan, Front Cover, and Rocker Covers Replaces: 12570473 Replaced By: 89017322 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Instruct customer that the first service interval including an oil and filter change should be between 300 and 500 miles. Replacement of oil related parts: If the original engine failed either catastrophically or due to bearing failure, the engine oil cooler MUST BE REPLACED and the oil lines and remote filter adapter MUST BE REMOVED from the vehicle and thoroughly flushed or replaced. Ingestion of fibers and grit from conditioning pads (i.e. Scotch Brite) is the number one cause of 4.3L engine failure. Intake Manifold: For some engine assemblies (see service manual), sealer (part number 12346004) or equivalent MUST BE APPLIED to lower intake manifold bolts when installing the lower intake manifold. Failure to do so will usually result in increased oil consumption by allowing oil from the engine valley to be drawn into the intake manifold plenum. Since the plenum drain holes empty into cylinder #3 and #4, oil fouling will be greater on the spark plugs in these cylinders. Front Covers: 4.3 blocks with ten-bolt front cover provisions accept either ten-bolt metal covers or, after removing dowel pins, accept six-bolt plastic covers. On OBD II equipped engines, reluctor ring must also be transferred. CAUTION: The oil pump in this engine must be primed before starting engine. DAMAGE WILL RESULT IF ENGINE IS STARTED WITHOUT OIL OR IF OIL PUMP IS NOT PRIMED. 89017321 262 CID New 4.3L 2001-02 Chevrolet, GMC CK1 (L35)(4.3W) 2001-02 Chevrolet, GMC S1 (L35)(4.3W) 2001-02 Chevrolet, GMC G1,2 (L35)(4.3W) M30 2002 Chevrolet, GMC CK1 (LU3) Engine-Specific Content: Light Duty Shallow Oil Pan, Oil Pump, Front Cover, and Rocker Covers Replaces: 12570472, 88894116 Replaced By: Notes: Swap Oil Pan from original engine or buy new (12555653) as required for Oil Level Switch.
