2012 Chevrolet Express 1500 Service and Repair Manual
This factory service and repair manual for the 2012 Chevrolet Express 1500 documents two engines that ask for different fuel strategies: the 5.3L V8 of 325 cubic inches, built for flex-fuel, and the naturally aspirated 4.3L V6 of 262 on gasoline. Both are overhead-valve V-engines. The vans come as three-door and four-door cargo and passenger bodies in Base, LS and LT trim, and the wiring diagrams, torque values and diagnostic charts are organized so each configuration can be traced on its own.
