2006 Chevrolet C8500 Service and Repair Manual
Regular price
$29.99 USD
Unit price
This factory service and repair manual for the 2006 Chevrolet C8500 has five configurations to keep apart — C8C042, C8C064, C8E042, C8V042 and C8V064 — spread over a straight truck cutaway, a medium conventional straight truck and a four-door crew cab straight truck. The engines behind them are a turbocharged 7.8L diesel inline-six of 475 cubic inches, a turbocharged 7.2L diesel inline-six of 441, and a naturally aspirated overhead-valve 8.1L gasoline V8 of 496. That spread is why the chassis and wiring sections are written to cover every version rather than one.
