1992 Chevrolet Caprice Service and Repair Manual
This factory service and repair manual for the 1992 Chevrolet Caprice has three overhead-valve gasoline engines to specify: a 4.3-liter V6 of 262 cubic inches alongside the 5.0-liter and 5.7-liter V8s of 305 and 350. Sedan and wagon bodies continue, in Base, Classic and Classic LTZ trim. A six-cylinder sitting in the same range as two V8s means the engine mechanical, fuel and emissions sections branch, and the torque and clearance tables have to be read against the engine actually in the car.

Known issues on the 1992 Caprice. Eight recalls stand on the record. Aftermarket lamp assemblies missing amber side reflectors account for several. The serious mechanical ones are a rear lower control arm that can crack at the stabilizer bar attachment and fracture through, and steel wheels that develop fatigue cracks around the lug nut mounting surface until the wheel can separate from the axle. Another covers an electrical ground-out capable of melting the junction block and burning wiring. Complaints total 114, heaviest on the service brakes at thirty-one, then air bags at fifteen and seat belts at thirteen.
