In 1973, Cadillac was still making big, BIG cars. They may have been outrageously large, but Cadillac wasn't about to underpower these beasts. How serious were they? The fact that their monster-sized 472 cubic inch V8 wasn't even "the big engine" in their line-up, should tell you all you need to know. That's right. The Eldorado was armed with a mind-blowing 500 cubic inch power plant. Just when you start to come to grips with that, you have to also remember that these 500 cubic inch machines are front wheel drive! That might sound somewhat normal these days, but in 1973, it was not at all common, and the fact that they could make a workable drivetrain to smoothly harness all of that torque definitely says something great about those Cadillac engineers. When it comes time for you to get to work on your big, bad Caddy V8 (regardless of size), this is the guide to have. It's loaded with all of the factory-correct specifications and instructions you'll need to get the jobs done right.

Did you know that the Guide-Matic system allows the driver to select the automatic switching of vehicle headlight beams in response to light from approaching vehicles headlights? Well, you would if you owned this guide and flipped to 15-26. There is a provision for the driver to have manual control or constant low beam if desired. Guide-Matic was available as optional equipment on all '73 Cadillac cars. You'd learn that the system consists of a photo-amplifier, power relay, foot switch, sensitivity control (driver control) and interconnecting wire harness. The book goes into great detail for outlining the system and all of the related components (including multiple excellent visual aids). It walks you through operation-automatic, operation-manual, operation-low beam, diagnosis and service information. What's even better is that this high-level of detail is employed throughout this 1973 Cadillac shop manual.

When Cadillac created the print ads to announce their new 1973 line-up, they cleverly stated, "Cadillac presents the class of '73." There's no doubt that a big and beautiful Cadillac from 1973 is the definition of "class". Be sure to keep yours running at its best by using the helpful material contained in this magnificent service manual.

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.
