The 1983 Chevrolet Light Duty Truck Shop Manual for the 10–35 Series covers diagnosis, maintenance and adjustment, on-vehicle service and, unlike earlier editions, unit repair of major components, all in one book. It applies to C and K pickups, chassis-cabs, crew cabs, Blazer and Suburban, G vans and P forward-control chassis, with the 4.1 and 4.8 liter in-line sixes, small-block V8s, the 7.4 liter Mark IV and the 6.2 liter diesel. Sections follow GM's numbering from 0A General Information to 9 Accessories, with sub-sections for each steering unit, axle, carburetor and transmission. Specifications and special tools close each section; wiring diagrams are noted as being at the rear of the book.
