1996 GMC C1500 Service and Repair Manual
Regular price
$29.99 USD
Unit price
This factory service and repair manual for the 1996 GMC C1500 lists four engines: the 4.3L V6, the 5.0L and 5.7L gasoline V8s and the turbocharged 6.5L diesel V8. The truck came as a two-door standard cab, a two-door extended cab or a three-door extended cab, in Sierra SL, Sierra SLE, Sierra SLT or Sierra Special trim. With a turbocharged diesel in the range, the manual keeps boost, injection and cooling data separate from the gasoline engines' fuel and ignition work, giving each its own torque values and clearances.

Known issues on the 1996 C1500. Twenty-three owner complaints are logged with NHTSA for this model year, with the service brakes and visibility tied at four entries each and structure close behind at three. That is a spread rather than a single fault, so the useful response is method: the brake, glass and body sections here all carry step-by-step procedures, the specifications and torque values that go with them, and diagnostic sequences that separate a worn component from an adjustment that has drifted out of range.
No active recalls
The 1996 GMC C1500 has no recalls on file with NHTSA.
