Service of the Steering Column Upper Shaft Bearing Lock Nut, as described in the 1988 Cutlass Supreme Service Manual in Sections 3B4A, B, C & D, is no longer applicable.
Therefore, use 1989 Section 3F1 instead of the 1988 sections.
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.
