In 1972, Cadillac was celebrating their 70th anniversary of building world class automobiles. After all those years of luxury, engineering and superior levels of quality, they hadn't lost their touch. Coming off a beautiful, fresh restyle the year before, the 1972 models sported stylish body lines and elegant trim. Not only are these great-looking cars, but they were equipped with plenty of muscle (from their enormous V8 engines) to motivate them smoothly down the road. Sure, they average around the high single digits when it comes to miles per gallon (MPG), but people didn't really care, as gas only cost about 36 cents per gallon at the time. The factory solution to poor MPG cars at that time was as simple as installing a bigger tank. Those were the days!

The public loved these gigantic luxury machines too, which was evident by tremendously strong sales figures. There's no doubt that these Cadillac models make quite a statement. Long known as the "standard of the world", Cadillac provided excellent value with an outstanding attention to detail. That's precisely what you'll find in this excellent, reprinted service manual. It's clean and new and retains all of the material from the original source. Keep your '72 running like new, with this 1972 Cadillac shop manual.

Did you know that when it comes to the Turbo Hydra-matic automatic transmission, a vacuum modulator is used to sense engine torque input to the transmission automatically? Well, you would if you owned this guide and flipped to section 7-1. You'd be advised that the vacuum modulator transmits the signal to the pressure regulator, which controls line pressure, so all the torque requirements of the transmission are met and proper shift spacing is obtained at all throttle openings. This book covers all of the transmission components, oil flow, service information, diagnosis, troubleshooting, removal and installation instructions and more.

The great news is, this entire manual contains that high-level of detail, so if you're wrenching on that massive 472 cubic inch engine, or even its bigger brother (hard to believe there's a BIGGER brother), the humongous 500 cubic inch powerplant, this book has you covered from front to back.

In 1972, singer Don McLean had a big hit with the song American Pie. While it may have been a song about musicians and the changing music scene, it also seems like a great way to describe the '72 Caddy line-up. These cool cars are like rolling slices of 70s Americana. Why take your Chevy to the levy, when you could ride in a Cadillac? Who cares if it doesn't rhyme?! These gentle beasts are some of the last Detroit Iron machines to roll out before oil embargoes, and many other automotive manufacturer challenges came along and changed everything. If you're lucky enough to own one, be sure to use the ultimate source to get (and keep) it rolling proudly down the road...this guide. Order yours today!

This factory-written shop manual is perfect for service, repairs, restoration and rebuild projects. Clear illustrations and photos show exploded views, as well as component details, plus specifications on engine data, engine torque, carburetion and more.
