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

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.

would rather have a maintenance manual. have a parts manual from parts vu company. only difference is that your parts manual has all together whereas the parts vu had to download the differsections individually.

Our original order was supposed to be for our 2014 Subaru Outback, yet the manual came up as Forester. We did have to purchase a new manual in order for them to send us the correct manual. We hope it will help us repair our Subaru.

Everything went just as expected. Good experience thanks for being so prompt.

This factory service and repair manual for the 1988 Chevrolet C2500 spans four engines that have little in common beyond their overhead-valve layout: a 4.3L V6, the 5.0L and 5.7L gasoline V8s, and a 6.2L diesel V8. Two cab configurations are covered, standard and extended, across Base, Cheyenne, Scottsdale and Silverado trim. A pickup like this gets bought for work, so the driveline, brake, suspension and charging sections are written to be used on a truck that is still earning.

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

  • 2-door standard cab pickup
  • 2-door extended cab pickup

Trims covered

  • Base
  • Cheyenne
  • Scottsdale
  • Silverado

Known issues on the 1988 C2500. Two recalls are on the federal record, and both trace back to replacement parts rather than to the truck as built. One covers a gasoline filter that may not seal at its connection, letting fuel weep out where an ignition source can find it. The other covers an oil filter that can seal badly and lose engine oil, again with fire as the outcome. One owner complaint stands for the year, on tires. Fuel line routing, sealing specifications and torque values are given here, as are wheel and hub procedures.
