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 1987 Chevrolet G20 addresses a three-body range, extended passenger van, standard cargo van and extended cargo van, in Beauville, Chevy and Sportvan trim. Four naturally aspirated overhead-valve engines are documented: the 4.3L V6 of 262 cubic inches, the 5.0L V8 of 305, the 5.7L V8 of 350 and the 6.2L diesel V8 of 379. Because the same shell takes both gasoline and diesel power, the fuel, exhaust and cooling sections branch by engine while the body procedures stay common.

Engines covered

  • 5.0L V8 (305 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 6.2L V8 (379 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, diesel
  • 4.3L V6 (262 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline
  • 5.7L V8 (350 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

  • 3-door extended passenger van
  • 3-door van standard cargo van
  • 3-door van extended cargo van

Trims covered

  • Beauville
  • Chevy
  • Sportvan

Known issues on the 1987 G20. Three recalls sit on this year's federal record, and two of them are about fuel escaping. Replacement fuel filters can seal poorly at the connection and weep gasoline, which near an ignition source becomes a fire. The lower fuel tank filler pipe can carry small holes at its spot welds and spill fuel during refueling or while turning. The third involves oil filters that lose their seal and drain the engine. Ten complaints are recorded, led by two on the steering and two on the structure, and steering linkage and fuel system service are both covered here.
