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 1984 Chevrolet Caprice has three bodies, one trim and three engines to account for. The Classic came as a two-door coupe, a four-door sedan or a four-door wagon; underhood sat the 231-cubic-inch 3.8-liter V6, the 305-cubic-inch 5.0-liter V8, or the 350-cubic-inch 5.7-liter V8 in diesel form. Every one is an overhead-valve design, but the diesel carries its own fuel system procedures alongside the gasoline material rather than sharing them.

Engines covered

  • 5.0L V8 (305 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 3.8L V6 (231 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 5.7L V8 (350 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, diesel

Body styles covered

  • 4-door wagon
  • 2-door coupe
  • 4-door sedan

Trims covered

  • Classic

Known issues on the 1984 Caprice. Two recalls appear on the federal record. One involves replacement oil filters that may not seal, allowing oil loss and a fire risk; the other concerns a nylon bushing in the cruise control servo that can slip free, producing unexpected rises in engine speed or a throttle that stays open. Seven owner complaints were logged, two on the power train and one each on service brakes and engine cooling. Throttle linkage, transmission and brake work all have their own diagnostic and torque specifications in this manual.
