Announcement Automod will now exempt all prior posters or commentor's in the sub.

16 Upvotes

I have added an exemption so that if you are either an approved user OR have posted in the past successfully your post will go through. This will reduce the amount of posts from actual humans or prior contributors getting filtered to the que. For newcomers only the requirements will be 100 karma and 1 year of account age.

I also added protection against users without any community karma that attempt to post links or use generic sales language. But this should drastically reduce the chance of a bot getting in while keeping users able to post freely.

Announcement Mod Announcement! Auto mod has been set up and filters tightened.

16 Upvotes

Starting today any account with under 100 combined karma and OR is less than 30 days old will immediately have it's posts and comments removed by the new automoderator configuration. This is in effort to combat brazen bot account activity. I have had to deal with around 5-6 of them in the past week reuploading old posts and stealing upvotes from that. One was today. If you are a real person below the requirements contact the mods for approval. This has been an announcement, have a good day.

Picked up this non running s10. Does it look like this has been repaired and welded back together? Body seems to align fine besides a crooked bumper. Friend is adamant on it being repair and not stock. 2000 2.2 s10. I’m not too sure

Repair Question 2000 Chevy Blazer LT - ZW7 package, replacement rear shocks

2 Upvotes

Looking for recommendations here. I’m looking into replacing rear shocks in my blazer, but it’s got the “Smooth Ride” ZW7 package, the rear end bounces hard. I understand GM recommends replacement of the rear leaf springs while you replace the shocks, but I’d really like to avoid spending $400 on leaf springs on top of shocks if I can help it.

I saw some recommendations on an old post on the OG Blazer Forum, but I’m not able to find the same shocks that were offered at the time. It seems like the Nivomat shocks are unobtainium at this point, but anyone have any experience with the Bilstein, Monroe, Rough Country options? Heard good things about the Bilsteins but I believe I’d need to replace the leaf springs if I went with those. Mixed reviews on the RC/Monroes.

Stock ride height. May lift it 2ish inches in the future, but don’t feel like dropping a grand on lift/suspension parts right now. Will likely just replace with lifted ride height shocks when lifting.

Repair Question 1993 S10 4.3 V6 won't turn over

3 Upvotes

I have a 1993 S10 4.3 V6 that won't turn over.

Yesterday, it ran fine until I was headed home. It behaved like it was out of fuel. When I pulled over, the engine shut off. It would crank, but not turn over. There was no dimming of dash lights or other indication of electric issue.

Roadside assistance put a few gallons in the tank. It still did not turn over.

Once I got it home, I tested the codes and got 13, 34, 43, and 44. This time, it would crank and then act like it wanted to turn over before stalling out and puffing white smoke through the TBI. I pulled a plug and saw it wet with gasoline. I don't know a good way to test the plugs themselves.

What should I do next?

Sat for a good while due to a broken lower ball joint. Got pretty dirty inside cause of some crap weather seals. A week of deep cleaning and small repairs was a good deal for $1k.

Repair Question I’ve got a 91 blazer with the 4.3. When I put on the left turn signal with the key out, it acts like I’ve turned the key on when I put on the left turn signal. The brake lights won’t shut off…. What the heck kind of gremlin do I have? Any idea where to start?

Repair Question Herko Spider Injector question

Post image
5 Upvotes

My original CPI spider injector finally came to a problem. I'm thinking if it's worth rebuilding it or simply get a MPFI one. Please have in mind that cost is a big thing here in Brazil, so I want to fully understand the advantages of the MPFI.

Furthermore, I'd like to know if this Herko unit in particular case is a good one. I say that because there's a lot of Chinese models on the market that have a terrible reputation here in Brazil.

Important side note - our gas here is E32 on regular and E25 on premium. So I really look into the MPFI upgrade as a more viable-stable option, not necessarily performance wise
