Known issues on the 1988 K2500. The 1988 K2500 has a clean federal record, with no recall action against it and no complaint entered by an owner. The manual's value is therefore in the range it documents. Each of the four engines has its own procedures, specifications, torque values and diagnostics, gasoline and diesel handled apart, and the chassis chapters cover the brakes, steering, suspension and driveline that a working truck wears out first. Wiring diagrams complete it, drawn separately for the standard and the extended cab.
