Question 1997 GMC Jimmy

Sep 01, 2005 4 Replies

I just bought a 97 Jimmy and it was missing the owners manual. I had 2 questions...



1/ What gas grade should i be using? In my old Ford i always used the cheapest stuff but a couple people have told me i need to use the "best" in the Jimmy. Also, i have read a few things about there being trouble with the ABS braking if you don't have the "right" tires on it. Should i just get whatever tires the tire guy has or should i get a better grade name brand? Thanks alot!! Kimberly

Regular is fine.

You can put different size tires on the vehicle, as long as they are all the same. Most of the GM vehicles can be reprogrammed to deal with larger tires. You need to reprogram for correct speedo operation, and the ABS also needs to be able to recognize the larger tires on most of the systems.
