Looks like an incomplete random collection of service manual pages with technical service bulletins mixed in, all in random order. This is nothing like what their site advertises.

I see that key engine, transmission, brake and suspension sections are extremely incomplete or completely missing.

Very disappointing.

I will dispute this with my credit card, and I will lodge a complaint with the various authorities, and I am going to show this to my attorneys, they are going to have fun with these goons.

The manual seems to be complete and was easy to download. The pages are images, however, and not searchable.

The download I received was a complete waste of my money. Was not even close to what it was represented as. I thought I was getting a proper service repair manual. What I got was a collection of service bulletins. I sent an email to your company right after I looked through it requesting my money back. Have yet to hear a response. Terry Muich

More detailed than I thought, still trying to navigate through it, not what I thought it would be, thought it would be more like the Haynes manual.

It was much larger than i expected. 5 documents at 12k pages each. Its not something ill actually be able read but its easy enough to find what you need..
The Ford F250 manual is much easier to navigate at just over 8000 pages.
If i spend the money for Adobe Acrobat Professional ill be able to break it down into manageable bits.
Both manuals area great value for the money.

Excellent. Now I can actually start working on my cars again with confidence. YouTube videos really are inadequate.

Schematics were not high resolution making the markings and names difficult to read when zoomed in. Improvement is needed. Otherwise it is a good document.

I wasn’t sure why I needed this to be a PDF, but it was apparent once I got it. It includes what would be thousands of pages if it were in print. The links take you to wherever you need to go in the text.

I didn’t realize I would have a link in an email to click to get another email with another link to download.

This factory service and repair manual for the 1982 Chevrolet C10 has to reach across four engines fitted to one body. A 4.1L inline-six of 250 cubic inches sits at the bottom, the 5.0L and 5.7L gasoline V8s of 305 and 350 cubic inches in the middle, and a 6.2L diesel V8 of 379 cubic inches apart from all of them, every engine overhead-valve and naturally aspirated. The truck itself is a two-door standard cab pickup in Custom, Scottsdale or Silverado trim, so fuel and ignition work splits by engine while the frame, driveline and brake sections apply throughout.

Engines covered

  • 5.0L V8 (305 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 4.1L inline-six (250 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 6.2L V8 (379 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, diesel
  • 5.7L V8 (350 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 2-door standard cab pickup

Trims covered

  • Custom
  • Scottsdale
  • Silverado

Known issues on the 1982 C10. Three recalls sit on the federal record. One concerns a replacement oil filter that can seal poorly, bleed engine oil and set up a fire risk. Another involves rear brake drum balance weights fouling the aluminum wheels, which can back the lug nuts off until a stud fails and the wheel separates from the truck. The third covers a locking screw that can work loose in the differential and let the pinion shaft shift, jamming the gears or cutting drive to the rear wheels. Four owner complaints exist, spread thinly across tires, the electrical system and the fuel system.

NHTSA #83V04500027/04/1983Component: POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DIFFERENTIAL UNIT

THE LOCKING SCREW THAT RETAINS THE PINION SHAFT IN PLACE IN THE DIFFERENTIAL COULD COME LOOSE. THE PINION SHAFT TURNS THE GEARS INSIDE THE DIFFERENTIAL THAT ROTATE THE DRIVE AXLES

Remedy

THE DEALER WILL REPLACE THE DIFFERENTIAL LOCK SCREW AT NO CHARGE.
