All About 1985 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Drivetrain Service

Your Delta 88 drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Oldsmobile, from the axles to the transmission.

When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1985 Oldsmobile Delta 88, you help maintain your vehicle's power. Follow Oldsmobile's recommendations for lubricating bearings/gears and checking/changing differential fluids to minimize repairs over time.
