1982 Chevrolet C15 Service and Repair Manual

This factory service and repair manual for the 1982 Chevrolet C15 belongs to a plain working truck: a two-door standard cab pickup in Cheyenne or Custom trim, with two inline-sixes of 4.1L and 4.8L, 250 and 292 cubic inches, and a 5.7L V8 of 350 cubic inches, all overhead-valve, naturally aspirated and burning gasoline. Two of the three engines carry their cylinders in a row, which changes manifold, ignition and accessory drive work enough that the tune-up specifications and torque sequences are given separately for each rather than pooled.
