Automotive - 87 chevy s10 blazer
Expert: Ben Deutschman - 9/1/2008
Question
I have an 87 s10 blazer 2.8-v-6. It was running fine and I parked it for a couple months, went to drive it and it started bogging down then quit running, now I can't get it started. Changed the ignition module and the coil and it just wont start, I have tried everything I can think of. Any ideas?
Answer
I would check to make sure I have Fuel coming up into the Carburetor, or Fuel Injectors. Given your vehicle is a 1987 model, I'm thinking it is still a Carbureted vehicle, which would make it easier to check for Fuel flow, with less danger involved. If my memory is correct, then you would need to temporarily take the Fuel Line off at the Fuel Pump, and momentarily crank the Engine, while keeping a Cup, or Jar over the Pump Outlet to catch the Fuel. BE CAREFUL when doing this. If you get Fuel at the Pump, then check the Line up to the Carburetor, and the Filter at the Inlet to the Carburetor. You may also need to get a Code Reader, and check for whatever Codes are present, but keep in mind, the older systems don't store Codes, so hopefully your problem isn't transient in nature, and the Code is present.
