Q: Chevy S-10..?
I’m looking into buying a 2002 Chevy S-10 w/extended cab. Does anyone own the same/similar truck and what do you think of it?
A: I have one and love it. Make sure it has the 4.3 litre V 6 in it or you will be miserable. The 4 cylinder doesnt last long, but the 4.3 V-6 will run forever if you keep up with oil changes. Chevy has had some prob’s with the fuel pumps on the S-10 tho, so be advised the pump might go and it’s in the tank.
Q: Chevy S-10?
Im looking for a 1996-97 chevy s10 Im wondering if they’re reliable, easy to be mantained, good on gas. How Much does it cost to fiil it up and how big it the tank. Were there any real problems with that year. thanks for all of your input.
A: Almost a 20 gallon tank if I remember correctly…. driver side tank…. these years seemed to have noisy fuel pumps (but they last a long time)
4.3 v6 liter or 4 cylinder? They are pretty good on gas…. have a 96 with the 4.3, only problem is with the intake gaskets begin to leak after maybe 100 thousand miles(which are easily fixed with felpros) and well…. changing the spark plugs are hell and a half… being its such a big engine for such a small compartment..
Good power, and I mean good power….. lol
Heater core….. if it ever clogs up and needs replacing… its hell and a half to replace…. as its on the inside of the truck and requires removing the whole dashboard to get to it.
The 4 cylinder version I can’t help much…. do see them running around with 4’s… seem to do great..
friend has a larger truck with the 4.3 liter…. has around 150,000 on it and this guy drives it like he stole it and has 5 cops behind him, original everything.
Q: How do you put freon in a 2000 Chevy s-10 pickup?
I am trying to recharge the a/c on a 2000 Chevy S-10 pickup. I purchased the 134a refrigerant and a recharger. With a screw on type adapter with a gauge. My question is where do I hook it to? And how much do I instill?
A: You need to add the refrigerant through the low side port. The low pressure port of the A/C system usually has a blue or black dust cap and is located either on the larger diameter metal tubing typically found between the evaporator and compressor, on the compressor itself, or on the receiver drier (orifice tube systems only).Only charge through the low pressure port. There is a web site with a lot of help full information about your auto a/c system check out the link below.You need to have a gauge to check your pressure on the low side port in order to know how much refrigerant you need to add.
Q: What is the weight of a 1995 Chevy S-10 Extended Cab Pickup Truck?
I am trying to find out the weight to my 1995 Chevy S-10 Extended Cab. The reason i need to know the weight is because this car will be a future drag car, and i would like to know how much it weighs for time purposes.
A: 3,156

T-stone – i believe 4,400 would be the maximum GVW, not the “curb weight” of the truck with no load or anything in the bed, its no way an S-10 would weight that much with nothing in the bed because my 98 chevy K1500 silverado Ext. Cab 4×4 Z71 is 4,100 pounds empty with no load in the bed
Q: How to replace brake pads on a Chevy S-10 pickup?
How would I replace brake pads on a Chevy S-10 pickup? Please give detailed instructions if you are going to reply. Thanks!
A: you have to take the wheel off first of all.Then you will see,bolted on to the axle,right over top the brake rotor is the brake caliper,fastened by two bolts that you remove,causing the whole caliper to come loose.next u will see two more bolts of close to the same size holding the brake slider in place.remove them.now u can remove the pads from the slider.before putting the new pads in the slider, take two c-clamps and push both plungers back as far as they go.now,put the new pads in place,bolt the slider onto the caliper,bolt the caliper to the axle mount,and put the wheel back on.
Q: Chevy S-10/w 350/w no balls?
I have a 1996 s-10 with a chevy 350 w/ a metric 200 tranny and a stock rear but it has no balls. Anyone have a idea where my problem may lie.
A: There are more than a few possibilities…..The engine needs 3 things to run…Air,fuel and spark…Lets start with air….How big is the carb,is it fairly new?The intake is next,what kind of intake do you have?Then alot of people forget the exhaust,Do you have good flow?Is there a cadilidic converter?These can plug up and kill your power…O.k next is fuel…Again we look at the condition of the carb…Is it big enough to feed the motor?Do you have proper fuel pressure from the fuel pump?Then comes spark…Do you have points or an hei set up?Has it been tuned up?New plugs cap and rotor?Spark is real important….An hei setup gives more spark and is less prone to failures….So it,s got stock gears in the rear end…What gear ratio does it have?I had 2:10 gears in my gtx when I got it…It ran good but had no real go…I changed it to a 3:55 and it really woke up….It,s a matter of checking all these things out to figure out what is wrong….Goood luck!!!!
Q: How do I seal a vaccum line in a Chevy s-10.?
My 88 Chevy s-10 blazer is making a weird hissing sound when it is idling. It idles beautifully but then when I get going it dies and wont start again without spraying the intake. I think it might be a leak in my intake because when I spray it with carb cleaner it will keep running.
A: Replacing the intake gasket is the only way to stop this leak.
Q: On a 1994 Chevy S-10 pickup truck, which fuse does the airbag use?
I need to replace the heater core in my ‘94 Chevy S-10, so I have to first take apart the dashboard. To avoid activating the airbag, the Haynes manual recommends removing the fuse, but there doesn’t appear to be a fuse specifically for the airbag. Any advice would be appreciated.
A: pull all fuses20 amps or above :O)
Q: How do I cure a hissing sound in a Chevy s-10?
My 88 Chevy s-10 blazer is making a weird hissing sound when it is idling. It idles beautifully but then when I get going it dies and wont start again without spraying the intake. I think it might be a leak in my fuel injector when I spray it with carb cleaner it will keep running.
A: Hissing sound is usually a vacuum leak, a massive vacuum leak can cause the issues your talking about. Try to pinpoint the leak by running the engine at idle and spraying carb cleaner on your vacuum lines and all around the intake manifold *dont spray inside the throttle intake like your mentioned, least not for this test*..when you hear a difference in how its running you have found your leak, a brake booster can also cause a massive vacuum leak. You may also be ready for a new fuel pump if giving it gas stalls it out.
Q: Will a chevy s 10 automatic transmission bolt up to a 1998 isuzu hombre 4.3 liter?
I have a 98 isuzu hombre that needs a transmission(automatic). Do you know how much a used one would cost if i put in myself? Also, would a transmission from a chevy s 10 fit becuase they were made by the same company i believe.
A: Yes it’s the same truck. Just make sure you buy one for the same size engine and whether it’s for a 2 wheel drive or 4 wheel drive truck. Chevy GMC, and Isuzu Hombre are the same but have different styling. Call some auto recyclers “junk yards” and price a used trans ($150-$800)and ask if they install and how much. There’s always deals to be found if you look hard enough. I had a older Chevy Blazer 4X4 done for $750 but the first used trans was no good and they replaced it under the 30 day warranty. The GMC Safari – Chevy Astro vans use the same engine and transmission if your buying one out of the classifieds ($100-$400 no warranty) .
Q: How do you properly install a car seat into a 1989 chevy s-10 blazer?
Me and my husband owns a 1989 Chevy s-10 Blazer. I thought there was an owners manual in the glove box but can not find it. We are expecting out first child and were looking on how to install the car seat properly. Can anyone tell me how to do so or where I can find the information from the owners manual that will tell us this?
A: If you go to your locale fire company they will show you how to install it properly.
Q: Why wont the 4 wheel drive work on our Chevy S-10 pickup?
We have a 1995 Chevy S-10 pickup, Vortec V-6 engine, auto trans. When the 4 wheel button is pressed i hear the normal noise when it comes on then just a whine out of the front end. The front end does not work though.
A: the vaccume mobulator is probably stuck or froze….located on front axle..this engages the front wheels…..may need some attention. or a nite in a warm garage

A: pop the hood when you are looking at the head light there are two small strap looking things made of hard plastic or metal you turn it slightly (sorry can’t remember if its right or left) that then just pulls off easily if it doesn’t don’t force it you should need no tools to do this. do the same thing on the other side of the head light it then pulls forward pull the light out and change.
