2004 Chevrolet Venture Service and Repair Manual
This factory service and repair manual for the 2004 Chevrolet Venture reflects a trimmed-down lineup: Base, LS, LT and Plus, one four-door mini passenger van body, and the familiar 3.4L OHV V6 of 207 cubic inches, naturally aspirated and gasoline-fueled. With the engine unchanged, the most useful part of the book is the diagnostic material, which reads a symptom through to a component, states what a circuit should measure, and gives the figure a fastener should be torqued to, identically across all four trims.
