2000 GMC Savana 1500 Service and Repair Manual
This factory service and repair manual for the 2000 GMC Savana 1500 addresses the Base and SLE versions of the three-door standard cargo van and the three-door standard passenger van. Three engines carry the range: the 305-cubic-inch 5.0L V8, the 262-cubic-inch 4.3L V6 and the 350-cubic-inch 5.7L V8, all overhead-valve gasoline engines without forced induction. Because two of them are V8s of similar architecture, the manual keeps their specifications and torque values clearly separated, and the same discipline runs through the chassis, brake and electrical diagnostics.
