Q: How much is a 1992 Chevrolet Blazer S-10 with a locked motor worth?
I know it’s not worth a lot and I don’t expect a lot. I just need an estimated value. My neighbor wants to buy it and see if he can rebuild the motor in his spare time but I have no idea what a fair price would be.

A: I would go with a couple hundred. It will cost more to fix the motor than the vehicle is worth.

Q: How easy is it to replace the multi-function switch on my 1997 Chevrolet S-10 Blazer?
Specifically, do I need to remove the steering wheel with a puller or is everything easilly accessible?

A: Pull the steering wheel using a puller. Remove the lock plate using a lockplate compressor to get the lock ring out of your way. Both these tools can be borrowed from autozone after leaving a small deposit. Unscrew the multi-switch. trace the wires down the steering column and unplug them. Then fish them up through the column and remove. Installation is the reverve of the removal, so be sure to take note of where everything goes.

Q: 1991 Chevrolet S-10 Blazer?
I purchased a 91 Chevrolet Blazer (S-10) on the 3rd of April, I had the oil changed on the 5th of April, 08. This morning, while on the way to take my kids to school, i noticed the oil pressure gauge was registering very low. Though the truck wasn’t running any different. I stopped and checked the oil level and it was fine. Isn’t there an Oil pressure sending unit or something like that that controls the gauges? It has been a long time since i had a vehicle of this age and type. (Though i am female i am not stupid so please if you answer don’t give any “oh shes a female” answers). I don’t mind getting my hands dirty and if i can do the work myself i will. Any possibilities will be appreciated. Thanks to all.
It has a 6cyl 4.2 engine. The oil pressure gauge has 0, 40, and 80 on it. It has been staying between just below 40 and just above it. Now, when i slow down and stop it fluctuates between 0 and about 20 and the “Check Gauges” light flashes.

A: Its running perfectly fine, just below 40 is fine,I have the same truck

Mine has 273,000 miles on it,Ive had it for 3 years now and put 40K miles a year on it, the thing you have to watch out for is the bearings,they go! The truck will give you fair warning too,it will start to sound like you have big knobby truck tires on it when the bearings need replacing. By the way,this has been the best vehicle ive ever owned!!

Good luck!

The check engine light goes on and off in mine too,and its never been a problem for years!

Q: Can anyone lead me to a good source for finding info. on my 1987 Chevrolet S-10 Blazer?
I am in need of a transmission for this vehicle, the problem is I need to find out if it is or is not with the aux. valve body, I would like to do this by not having to pull the pan and look. I went to the local Chevy dealer and he looked in his records and could not tell me because two different trans. were installed in that vehicle that year. I would think with the Vin# someone will know, could use advice on how to find this out.

A: yea good old gm the later it was in the year the more you will have a aux v/b if memory serves me right look at he month i think anything later than 6/87 you will have the aux v/b but if you want to make sure pull the pan and if you see the tube that runs from the pump to the back of the v/b into the servo then it will be the aux v/b

Q: I have a 1993 chevrolet s-10 blazer, it is stuck in 4 wheel lo. how do I get it unstuck?
it is the electronic push button. something goes click. but it won’t engage.

A: 1. raise each wheel off of the ground with a suitable jack and jack stands.

2. place transfer case and tranny in nuetral with engine off..

3. rotate front tires by hand to relieve all gear binding.

4. start engine and electrically release 4×4 per owners manual instructions.

Does this help any?

Q: Where is the oil pressure switch located on a 1987 Chevrolet S-10 Blazer, 6 cylinder.?
This is a possibility for a short I have in the circuit but I can not find it on the block, I knows its there, I just cant locate it.

A: look behind the intake just under the distributor it should be sticking up out of the block between the firewall and intake

Q: Where is the fuel pump fuse located on a 1987 Chevrolet S-10 Blazer, 6 cylinder?

A: look on the passenger side up by the dash. some of them are there.

Q: What is the diffence between a 2001 Chevrolet Blazer and S-10 Blazer?

A: The Blazer is actually based on the S10/Sonoma pickup truck, but I remember the old Blazers were badged as the S10 Blazer because there was a bigger Blazer that was renamed Tahoe.

It’s all pretty confusing.

Q: i have an 86′ chevrolet blazer s-10 2.8 fuel injected 4×4 , do you need a certain amount of gas to crank?
i changed the fuel pump and cleaned tank how much gas does it need to crank up and do you have to prime it? if so how many times

A: I think the gas tank is smaller like 15 gallons. And shaped different so if the total was 5 gallons it would be enough to just get started. The fuel pump would run when energized by ignition switch ON. Then the pump would continue until the fuel hose is full, which then increases pressure.
The pump runs until the pressure is high enough for the fuel pressure switch and regulator.

You can turn the ignition ON until the pump stops. Then OFF. Then ON once more and the fuel pump won’t run as long because the air is out, and the pressure is high now.

Q: Where is the check engine sensor on a chevrolet blazer 1996 s-10?

A: there is no “check engine sensor”

when the check engine light turns on, it means that one or more of the sensors has sent an error code to the cars computer, that gets stored in memory. the mechanic can use this code to fix the problem.

Q: How did I ruin my 1993 Chevrolet S-10 Tahoe LT Blazer’s 4×4 Transmission when i drove in 4-HI on Dry Roads?
I remember.. I had a 1993 Chevrolet Blazer Tahoe LT, and i was 18 i think, and i thought “Hey, I can leave this in 4-HI all the time and get better Traction and be Safer!” .. 3 days to a Week later the Transmission was “Dead”…

. can anyone tell me how Leaving it in 4-HI all the time made the Engine be hotter (if i rememebr right, it stats at 220, overheats starting at 240, digital gauges) and then just “Had a Ruined Trans”? Something about “Its supposed to work when its Slippery?” I forgot….

A: haha i saw your answer to the other question. There are some problems with running 4HI everywhere

1) extra wear driving all 4 tires
2) different gear ratios can cause problems on dry pavement
3) turning is a bitch
4) you don’t really need it unless its crappy weather.

Q: 1999 Chevrolet S-10 Blazer Problems NEED HELP !!!!!?
I have a 99 chevy blazer 4×4 automatic, I have been constantly having problems regarding some sensors? I am having problems with it burning fuel very rich, so rich it coats the ground in black exhaust and you can get a great wiff of the fumes( its wonderful, it you dont mind dieing), also problems with it turning over, sometimes I have had to pump the gas and even then it sputters and dies, after it does start my idle is only at 5 hundred rpms, give or take a few, sometimes it just jumps around, also the entire truck shakes from what appears to me to be the engine rocking back and forth( doesnt appear to be good at all to me) At first I was told it was my catalytic converter, had it replaced, not the problem, never was, told by another mechanic I needed a tune up and to replace fuel filter, wires, plugs, dist cap, rotor button, but once again the problem is still here, so I have talked with another mechanic and he tells me hes seen this before and its either the fuses or somewhere along the way the wires to my sensors were pinched when put it and all the wiring needs to be checked,( this I cannot do on my own), so once again I get advice from another mechanic and we run a scan on it, it get 4 errors,1- MAP (manifold absolute pressure) or MAF (mass airflow) condition, 2-IAT ( Intake Air Temperature) circuit, 3-Cylinder misfire and the fourth has to do with my transmission component slipping( which has been going on for a while now but does not seem to affect my truck unless I have driven for a about a half hour, when I come to a complete stop and the go it jerks into 2nd and sometimes 3rd, I was told this was a sensor in my transfer case that just needs to be cleaned? Anyways I went this morning and talked to yet another mechanic about the scan results and was told that a MAF sensor would stop all that was wrong with the exception of the transmission, so I buy this sensor and replace it, GUESS WHAT, NOOOOOO LUCCCK!!!! I have been fooling with this thing for the past year now it seems like and I have put way to much into this car to sell it and get anything near what I have put into. If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it. If you have any idea please feel free to let me know. batarchangeltattoos@yahoo.com

A: WOW sounds like you need to find yourself a good tech that can diagnose, and not just guess at what the problem might be.
With that said….

Here’s what you need to do. You need to check fuel pressure, it has to be 55-60 psi key ON engine OFF and hold steady. if it drops less than 50 psi within 1 minute then the problem is a leaking fuel pressure regulator. (which personally I suspect to be faulty from reading your post)
Un-metered fuel is being dumped into the cylinders, causing the rich condition/hard starting/miss-fire/shaking of the engine.
The regulator is located under the plastic intake plenum.
Any good tech can check this for you very easily and quickly.

We at the dealership charge 1 hour diagnostic fee.Maybe it’s worth it for you to take it there and stop throwing money away.

A: It is either the MAP sensor or the MAF sensor. Depending on the year this vehicle was manufactured. You see both of these sensors do the same function. Without going into the exact details that I can not write out. The cylinder misfire fault could be caused by the previous condition so for now it should be ignored.
The MAF and MAP sensor both are found inline with the air induction system after the air filter. I want you to focus on this sensor. If the vehicle is running and you tap on this sensor, I said tap not bang, and it is bad it “will” make your engine idle fluctuate.
Now there are three wires going to this sensor, “three”, trace them back and make sure they are not pinched, bare, damaged anywhere.

If this does not help you need to have a reputable mechanic focus on this issue. You have a ground coming from the computer, a 5 volt reference, and the feedback coming from the sensor to the computer. These need to be checked and verified.

I am guessing this is where your problem started.

The transmission problem is a different fault intirely.
