This factory service and repair manual for the 1989 GMC Tracker covers the first year of the small two-door sport utility, sold in a single Base trim with one engine: a naturally aspirated 1.6L single-overhead-cam inline-four of 98 cubic inches. It is a simple vehicle by design, and the book matches it — engine mechanical work, fuel and ignition, the transfer case and axles, brakes, steering and body, each with its removal and installation procedures, published specifications, torque values and the wiring diagrams that go with the circuits involved.

Known issues on the 1989 Tracker. The federal record for this first year is clean: no recalls and no owner complaints logged with NHTSA. That leaves the manual to do the ordinary work, and on a light four-wheel-drive vehicle of this age that means the four-wheel-drive system as much as the engine. Transfer case and axle procedures, brake and steering service, published specifications and torque values, and diagnostics supported by wiring diagrams are all here for the 1.6L inline-four and the chassis around it.
