1982 GMC C6000 Service and Repair Manual
This factory service and repair manual for the 1982 GMC C6000 has to hold five engines in one book. Three are gasoline — the 6.0L overhead-valve V8 of 366 cubic inches, the 5.7L V8 of 350 cubic inches and the 4.8L overhead-valve inline-six of 292 cubic inches — and two are naturally aspirated diesels, a 10.4L V8 of 636 cubic inches and an 8.2L V8 of 501 cubic inches. The chassis appeared as a conventional cab and chassis, a medium conventional tractor truck and a medium conventional straight truck, under two trim codes.

Known issues on the 1982 C6000. Nothing is recorded against the 1982 C6000 on the federal record: no recalls and no owner complaints. With five engines to look after, that puts the weight on the reference sections. Gasoline and diesel specifications sit side by side here, from the 292 inline-six through to the 636-cubic-inch diesel V8, and each engine has its own procedures, torque values and diagnostic steps. Chassis coverage follows the same pattern across the tractor, straight-truck and cab-and-chassis versions, wiring diagrams included.
