1997 GMC Safari Service and Repair Manual
Regular price
$29.99 USD
Unit price
This factory service and repair manual for the 1997 GMC Safari takes in both wheelbases again: three-door standard and extended passenger vans and three-door standard and extended cargo vans, offered as Base, SL, SLE, SLT or SLX. Only one engine appears, the 4.3L V6 displacing 262 cubic inches, with overhead valves and no forced induction. Since the powertrain is constant and the bodies are not, the sheet metal, glass and interior sections do most of the varying, and each system carries its own procedures, specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams and diagnostics.

Known issues on the 1997 Safari. Six recalls are on the federal record. Belt webbing on the right rear bucket seat can tear apart under crash loads, and integrated child seats may lack a retractor spring, so the belt will not lock or will not release. Cracked solder joints in the wiper motor controller can leave the blades dead in rain. Of 162 owner complaints, 22 name visibility, 19 the steering and 18 the power train. Wiper motor circuits, steering linkage specifications and transmission diagnostics are each covered, with the torque values that go with them.
ON CERTAIN MINIVANS, PICKUP TRUCKS, AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES WITH CERTAIN MODEL-ENGINE COMBINATIONS, THE WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR MAY FAIL DUE TO CRACKED SOLDER JOINTS ON THE CONTROLLER CIRCUIT BOARD.
