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 1991 GMC Safari drops to a single engine, the naturally aspirated 4.3L V6 of 262 cubic inches with overhead valves and gasoline fueling. What multiplies instead is the bodywork: extended and standard cargo vans and extended and standard passenger vans, each with three doors, sold as Base, SLE or SLT. With one powerplant to describe, the engine, driveline and electrical sections carry a single set of specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams and diagnostic procedures that apply straight across the range.

Engines covered

  • 4.3L V6 (262 cu in) — OHV, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

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

Known issues on the 1991 Safari. Four recalls appear on the federal record. Brake rotors can corrode where the stamped center meets the cast outer section, and the two can separate under braking. A rear seat belt anchorage bar could not sustain the load the restraint standard requires. Recliner bolts bearing on trapped foam lose torque, fatigue and break, letting a seatback fall away under the occupant. Replacement fuel filters may not seal at the connection, leaking fuel near an ignition source. Owner complaints total 52, and 18 of them are about the service brakes, with four each on the steering and the seats.
