SUMMARY OF LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE SERVICES
Maintenance and lubrication service recommenda-
tions for the
1965 Chrysler Corporation-built Plym-
outh vehicles have been compiled to provide maxi-
mum protection for the car owner’s investment
against allreasonabletypes of drivingconditions.
Since these conditions vary with the individual car
owner’s drivinghabits,the area in which the car is op-
erated and the type bf service to which the car is sub-
jected, it is necessary to prescribe lubrication and
maintenance service on a time frequency as well as
mileage interval basis.
To assure the car owner the benefits to which he is
entitled, the mileage intervals and time frequencies
atwhichthevarious lubricationand maintenanceserv-
ices should be performed are clearly defined and
carefully outlined in Certified Car Care Maintenance
Services.
Informationconcerningthe types of lubricants spec-
ified, the quantities required and the location of the
various points of application are shown in Lubrica-
tion and MaintenanceCharts (Figs.
1 and 2).
HOISTING
Special care should be taken when raising the ve-
hicle on a frame contact type hoist. The hoist must be
equipped with the proper adapters in order that the
vehicle will be supported in the correct locations (Figs.
3, 4 and 5).
Conventional hydraulic hoists may be used after de-
termining that the adapter plates will make firm con-
tact with the lower control arms and the rear axle
housing.
A regular
floor jack may be used under the rear
axle housing, or under the frontsuspension lower con-
trol arms,
however, a floor jack must never be used
on any partsof the underbody.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to raise one entire side
of the vehicle by placing
a jack midway between a

permanent damage to the body.

CLASSIFICATION OF LUBRICANTS
Oils and lubricantsare classified and graded accord-
ing to standards recommended by the Society of Auto-
motive Engineers (SAE),the American Petroleum In-
stitute (API) and the National Lubricating Grease In-
stitute (NLGI).
hgine Oil
The SAE grade number indicates the viscosity of
engine oils, for example SAE 30, which is a single
grade oil. Engine oils are also identified by a dual
number, for example SAE
1OW-30, which indicates a
multigrade oil.
The API designation indicates the classification of
engine oils for use under certain operating conditions.
Only engine oils designated “For Service MS” should
be used. These oils contain sufficient chemical addi-
tives to provide maximum engine protection. Both
the SAE grade and the
API designation must be found
on the container.
Gear Lubricants
The SAE grade number also indicates the viscosity
of Multi-Purpose Gear Lubricants, defined by MILL-
2105B. An example is SAE 75, which is a light viscosity
lubricant.
Lubricants-Grea
Semi-solid grease IUUI-IWILS, such as specified for
propeller shaft universal joints, bear the NLGI desig-
nation. They are further classified as grades
“0” or
“2.”
Information pertaining to the lubrication and main-
tenance points is shown on Lubrication and Main-
tenance Charts (Figs.
1 and 2).

sure equipment to prevent damaging or rupturingthe
seals.
Stop filling the ball joints when the lubricant
begins to
flow freely from the bleed areas at the base
of the seal, or if the seal begins to balloon. Remove
the fittings and reinstallthe threaded plugs.
Steering Linkage Ball Joints
The four tie rod end ball joints and the steering
gear arm ball joint (Figs.
8 and 9) are semi-permanent-
ly lubricated with a special lubricant at the factory.
They should be inspected and lubricated in accord-
ancewith the Certified Car Care Schedule.
When inspecting ball joints, clean accumulated dirt
and lubricant from the outside surfaces of the seals to
permit thorough inspection. Damaged seals or joints
should be replaced immediately to prevent contami-
nation

FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS
When an inspection of the wheel bearings indicates
the lubricant
is low in quantity,or contaminated with
dirt or water to produce a milky appearance,the bear-
ings should be cleaned, inspected and relubricated if
serviceable.
CAUTION: To avoid possible contamination of the
lubricant by mixing lubricantsthat are not compat-
ible,do not add lubricant to the bearings.
Thoroughly clean the old lubricant from the bear-
ings and hubs. Repack the bearings and hubs with Au-
tomotive Multi-Purpose Grease, NLGI grade 2. When
repacking hubs, (Fig. 21) make sure all surfaces of the
hub and outer grease cup interiors are covered with
lubricant to minimize condensation and lubricant
travel out of the bearing.
DO NOT OVER FILL.
Adjust the bearings as follows:
(1) Tighten wheel bearing adjusting nut (Fig. 22) to
70 inch-pounds on AV-1, AV-2 models and 90 inch-
pounds on AR-1, AR-2, AP-1, AP-2 models, while ro-
tating the wheel.
(2) Position nut lock on adjusting nut
so one pair
of cotter pin slots align with the hole in the spindle
(Fig. 22).
(3) Back
off the adjusting nut and nut lock to the
next slot and install thecotter pin.
(4) Install wheels, tighten wheel nuts to 55 foot-
pounds on AV-1, AV-2 models and
65 foot-pounds on
AR-1, AR-2, AP-1, AP-2 models. Install the wheel cov-
ers.
TIRES
Tires, includingthe spare,should be rotated accord-
ing to tire rotation diagram (Fig. 23), to provide uni-
form wear, long
tire life, and to retain comfortable
riding qualities.
Tires should be examined for unusual wear pat-
terns, foreign material and proper inflation pressures.
Fig. 22-Front Wheel Bearing Adjustment
Unusual wear conditions may reflect unusual driving
habits or indicate that mechanical corrections may be
necessary.
Refer to Lubrication and Maintenance Charts (Figs.
1 and 2),forrecommended inflation pressures.
COOLING SYSTEM
Inspect the coolant level every two months. The
cooling system should be drained, flushed and re-
filled with the proper coolant in the spring and in the
fall. When necessary to remove accumulations of
rust
and other deposits, maximum cleanliness can be re-
stored by using a reliable Cooling System Cleaner,
according
to the directionson the container.

Refill the cooling system with water and protect
against corrosion by adding Cooling System Rust Re-
sistor, Part Number 2421778, or refill with water and
Permanent Type Anti-Freeze, Part Number 1316209,
depending upon the season. All models are equipped
with 180 degree thermostats. With this thermostat,
only permanent type anti-freezeshould be used. If an
alcohol-type anti-freezeis used, a 160 degree thermo-
stat should be installed.
CAUTION: The 180 degree thermostat must be used
on cars equippedwith air conditioning.
Except for AV-1, AV-2 models equipped with the
recirculating type air conditioning unit, all vehicles
equipped with air conditioning should have the cool-
ing system protected with permanent type anti-freeze
to a temperature of -15°F. to prevent freezing in
the heater core.
In the winter, the cooling system of
all vehicles
equipped with air conditioning, should have sufficient
anti-freeze to provide protection to the lowest antici-
pated temperature range.
FREQUENCY OF OIL CHANGES
The engine oil should be changed every three (3)
months, or 4,000 miles, whichever comes first.
SEVERE OPERATING CONDITIONS, such as fre-
quent driving on dusty roads, or in sandy geographic
areas, or unusually short trip driving in cold weather
may reasonably require oil changes more frequently
than every three months. Under these conditions,
consult and follow the advise of any Chrysler Motors
CorporationAuthorized Dealer’s Service Manager.
TAXI AND POLICE DUTY, severe service such as
taxiand city police driving,which areprincipally short
trip operations including frequent and prolonged
id-
ling, require more frequent oil changes on a regular
schedule.
Fw this service, it is recommended that
engine oil be changed at least every
2,000 miles, with
filter changes at least every 2nd oil change. In addi-
tion, for this type of service,the crankcase ventilation
system should be serviced at each oil change. A sug
gested practice for taxi and police operations is to
maintain spare valves, installing a clean valve at each
oil change. Valves
so removed can be cleaned by soak-
ing overnight in carburetor cleaner, followed by dry-
ing with compressed air.
During Break-in
Cars should be driven moderately during the first
300 miles. After the initial 50 miles, speeds up to
50 to 60 mph are desirable. While cruising,brief full-
throttle accelerations contribute to a good break-in.
Wide-open throttle accelerations in low gear can be
detrimental and should be avoided for at least 500
miles.
The oil installed in the engine at the factory
is a
high quality lubricant, classified “For Service
MS,”
and should be retained until the first regularly sched-
uled three-month or 4,000-mile oil change, whichever
comes first. If it becomes necessary to add oil during
this initial period, an oil with the “For Service MS”
classification and of the proper viscosity grade should
be used.
Nondetergent or straight mineral oils must
never be used.
Frequently, a new engine will consume some oil
during its first few thousand miles
of operation. This
should be considered as a normal part of the break-
in and not to be interpreted as an indication of diffi-
culty.
ENGINE OIL-SELECTION OF
For best performance, and to provide for maximum
protection of all engines for all types of operation,
only those lubricants should be selectedwhich:
(a) Conform to the requirements of the API classi-
fication “FOR SERVICE MS.”
(b) Have the proper SAE grade number for the ex-
pected temperature range.
Oil Viscosity Recommendations
Low viscosity oils make engine starting easier in
cold weather. Modern SAE 5W-20grade oils have been
subjected to extensive engineeringevaluation and may
be safely used as recommended. As stated in the ac-
companying chart, when
minimum temperatures are
expected to be consistently below +1O0F., oils of the
SAE 5W-20 viscosity may be used.
M ulti-Grades
SAE 2OW-40 Where temperatures are consistently above
+32OF.
SAE 1OW-30 Suitable for year long operation in many
pah
of the U.S.; may be used where temperatures
occasionally drop
as low as - 10°F.
Recommended where minimum temperatures are
consistently below
+ 10OF.
SAE 5W-20
Single Grudes
SAE 30 Where temperatures are consistently above
SAE
1OW Where temperatures range between +32OF.

and -1OOF.
In order to help determine whether your region
“consistently reaches minimum temperatures of
+ 1O0F.,”the accompanying weather map (Fig. 24) is
provided. If your region is in the shaded area, SAE
5W-20 oil should be used duringthe winter months.
Lubricants which do not have both an SAE grade
number and an MS Service classification on the con-
tainer
should not be used.

ENGINE OIL FILTER
All engines are equipped with full-flow, throw-
away oil filters (Figs.
25 and 26) to provide efficient
filtering of the engine oil for maximum engine pro-
tection.
Since filters vary widely in quality, when replacing
the filter, it is recommended that Engine Oil Filter,
Part Number
1851658, be installed to assure most
efficient service.
CRANKCASE VENTILATION SYSTEM
Periodic service of the positive crankcase ventila-
tion system (Fig.
27) is required to prevent the mal-
function of the system because of combustion pro-
ducts deposited in the valve, hose and carburetor pas-
sages.
