Is there any maintnence you can do to your 1992 Pontiac Bonneville supercharger to make it perform correctly like some kind of supercharger tune up or do you have to replace the entire supercharger?
Maintenence on a supercharger is to check the oil level every 30,000 miles or 36 months. CAUTION:do not remove the oil plug when engine is warm.Removing the oil plug at warm engine temperatures can cause hot oil to overflow.this could result in oil lossand possible personal injury. Notice: the oil level should be maintained to the bottom of the plug threads.Do NOT use petroleum based oil.When adding oil use GM part #12345982 synthetic oil.Failure to do so may cause supercharger failure. Remove the wiring harness shield to access the oil plug. Doc J
What type of super charger fluid do you stick in a 1998 Pontiac gtp?
Use GM Supercharger Oil part number 12345982. It comes in 4 ounce bottles and takes two to refill the resouvoir after removing the old oil. While the manual does not specify a change interval at all you should change it every 30K miles. I use a meat injector to remove and replace the oil.
How often does the supercharger oil in a 1998 Pontiac grand prix gtp have to be changed and is it harmful to the supercharger if it has not been changed for a long time?
Usually you should plan on changing your supercharger oil once a year or every 20-30,000 miles. And yes it can be harmful to the supercharger to not change the oil in it, just as not changing the oil in the engine would be not to change it. Folks the oil cooling the superchargers I am aware of is the same oil from the same reservoir as in the engine. So when you change oil in the engine you are changing oil in the Supercharger as well. If this is not the case, someone please tell me as well. The oil in the supercharger is not the same as engine oil. Do not use regular engine oil in the supercharger on the GTP, it requires special oil. It is not connected to the same resevoir, it is totally separate. The last comment informing that the Supercharger oil is entirely different and not connected to the engine oil completely correct. Regarding charing the supercharger oil, the owner's manual states the following: "Unless you are technically qualified and have the proper tools, you should let your dealer or a qualified service center perform this maintanence." The owners manual then goes on to state that the oil in the supercharger should be every 30,000 miles or 36 months - whichever is sooner. To check your oil on the supercharger, do the following: 1. Make sure your engine is cold - i.e. at least 2-3 hrs after running. 2. Clean the area around the fill plug on the supercharger so no debris or impurities get in the system. 3. Remove the oil fill plug w/ a 3/16" allen/hex wrench. 4. The oil level is correct when it just reaches the bottom threads on the inspection hole. 5. Repleace the oil plug w/ the O-ring in place. 6. Torque to 88lb-in. The type of oil for the supercharger is Supercharger Oil GM Part No. 12345982. -gz1
Supercharger oil for a Buick riviera?
depends on the year. but for a series 1 motor its all one piece. no need to drain the supercharger cuz it all comes out with the sythentic oil. i would upgrade the oil pump to a high volume one. for 1995 to 1999 models: If the reservoir is low, top it off with GM Supercharger oil P/N 12345982 (a special 5W-30 synthetic oil). Do not open the drain plug when the engine is hot. Let it cool at least two hours so hot oil does not spray out of the reservoir. The oil level should be at the bottom of the inspection threads in the drain plug hole. Supercharger oil can be purchased an any GM dealer or online at gmpartsdirect.com
What type of oil is used in the grad prix gtp supercharger?
gm supercharger oil for the supercharger. any oil you prefer for the engine oil.
Do you need to change the oil in the supercharger everytime you change the engine oil?
Normally, the supercharger will pull oil from the engines oil pan meaning that when you change the engine oil it also changes the oil in the S/C. However, the supercharger may have either its own reservoir or have an independent drain of its own. Due to the high temperatures this part may incur, I recommend a change when you change the engine oil sense the part is so expensive to replace and it has such strain placed on it.
Where at on the engine does the supercharger fluid go?
Depending on the supercharger, it will require a special blend of synthetic oil. This synthetic oil normally is located in the supercharger itself. Most superchargers will have a hex nut located on the front of the supercharger. This area is used to drain and fill up the supercharger oil. You cannot use just any synthetic oil, you will have to use "Supercharger Oil"
