Foster Parent Week
October 21-27

In British Columbia, there are more than 3000 foster
families providing caring, stable homes for children
temporarily in need.

This year, 10 of those families received the Lieutenant
Governor's Foster Families Award, in recognition of their
outstanding contributions.

For the rest, the rewards are less public - a smile here, a
hug there. But this is Foster Parent Week, and we're
going public now with a heartfelt thank you to alll the foster
families of British Columbia

Most people already have the basic knowledge and skills
to be a foster parent. It also takes patience and
commitment to meet the challenge

Wt you've got what it takes . .. please call us.

ce 1984, with the rear fascia taking on
the ZR-1

to
shifts in buying patterns toward
‘economy, mid-size, sporty and luxury
cars.
Highlights for 1991 include:

° The new Lumina Z34 coupe,
scheduled for a mid-year introduc-
tion, which features the new high-
performance 3.4-litre Dual Twin Cam
V6 dhgine. The Lumina Z34 is

complement the Caprice sedan, which
made its debut as a 1991 model in the
spring of 1990.

© Chevrolet's mainstay cars in the
subcompact (Cavalier) and compact
(Corsica/Beretta) segments, which
feature all-new interior treatments
and improved ride and handling

characteristics.

The compact 1991 Chevrolet S-10
and GMC Sonoma pickup have
received a variety of evolutionary
changes to their powertrain and
chassis since their introduction early
in 1990.

An improved 2.5-litre (L38) four-
cylinder engine replaces the 2.5-litre
(LN) engine as the standard power
plant for two-wheel drive models.

The new engine has undergone @
variety of improvements including a
new intake manifold, cylinder head
and crank-shaft bearings; revised air
induction components and exhaust
system; and improved Quantum
spark plugs for longer life and better

redesigned 1991 Park Avenue and
Park Avenue Ultra and the 1991
Regal sedan.

The advanced 3800 V6 engine with
tuned port injection, first introduced
as an exclusive option in the Oshawa-
built 1990 Regal coupe, is the stan-
dard engine in the 1991 Park Avenue,
Park Avenue Ultra, Riviera, Reatta
and Regal Gran Sport.

This engine, which substantially
boosts mid-range torque and delivers
170 horsepower and 220 Ib. ft. of
torque (compared with 165 hp and
210 Ib. ft. of torque in the regular
3800), continues as optional in other

proved 220 series throttle body injec-
tion (TBI) on the 4.3-litre V6 engine.
The system has longer throttle return
springs and improved fuel mixture
distribution. The changes are
designed to improve engine starts, idle
quality and overall engine reliability
and durability.

A new Thermac III modified air
cleaner system and Quantum spark
plugs have been added in 1991 to help
improve cold starts and over-all
engine reliability. A lighter, more
durable starting motor is also new.

In addition, a “‘hardened”* 72 mm
distributor has been added to make
the ignition system less susceptible to

Other 1991 powertrain im-
include the use of an im-

ce from other electrical components.
Suspension improvements include
revisions to the front stabilizer bar
bushings and shock absorber valving
for better ride quality and durability.

Roadmaster Estate Wagon
features an all-new aerodynamic
shape, with flush glass and door han-
dies for improved efficiency. The 5.0-

jection deliver 170 horsepower.

* LeSabre has structural improve-

© The 2.5-litre Tech 4 engine, stan-
dard in the compact Skylark and mid-
size Century, has a new dual
resonator induction system to reduce
noise and engine vibration.

Pickups get new engine

Single-stage rear spring rates have
been revised for better ride quality
and durability. Rear shock absorbers
have also been revalved.

Power steering is now included as
standard equipment on/éxtended cab
models.

Two cab versions — standard or an
extended Chevrolet “*Maxi-
Cab’’"/GMC ‘‘Club Coupe’? — are
available. The standard cab can be
ordered with a choice of either a six-
foot or a large capacity 7.5-foot bed.

Net cargo ratings vary from vehicle
to vehicle but range between 1,190
pounds (540 kg) and 1,915 pounds
(870 kg). Maximum towing capacity is
6,000 pounds (2,720 kg) for two-
wheel drive and 5,500 pounds (2,500
