This factory service and repair manual for the 2012 Chevrolet Spark is a single-configuration book: one engine, the naturally aspirated 1.2L DOHC inline-four of 74 cubic inches; one body, a four-door hatchback; one trim, Base. For a technician that removes the usual first step of establishing which version is on the lift, and it means the fuel, ignition, cooling and emissions figures apply directly, as do the chassis torque values and the wiring diagrams for the body electrical system.
