1990 GMC K3500 Service and Repair Manual
Regular price
$29.99 USD
Unit price
This factory service and repair manual for the 1990 GMC K3500 lists the 7.4L gasoline V8, the 6.2L diesel V8 and the 5.7L gasoline V8, three naturally aspirated engines shared between a standard cab pickup, an extended cab pickup and a cab & chassis. The trim range is Sierra, Sierra SLE and Sierra SLX. What varies between two trucks of this year is body configuration and equipment rather than mechanical layout, so the wiring diagrams do as much work as the engine specifications.

Known issues on the 1990 K3500. Of the four recalls on the federal record, three describe distinct failure paths. Replacement fuel filters can seal imperfectly at the connection and allow a fuel leak near an ignition source. Transmission fluid can be forced out of the vent tube by unanticipated heat and ignite on contact with something hot. And incorrect rear lap-shoulder belt adjustment instructions were supplied with some trucks, so a belt set by them may not restrain an occupant in a sudden stop. One owner complaint is logged with NHTSA, on the electrical system, which is where the wiring diagrams earn their place.
