1993 Chevrolet Blazer tahoe lt review from North America
"This is a must have SUV"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Poor fuel economy when purchased 17 mpg hwy
replaced oxygen sensor 19 mpg
replaced map sensor 19 mpg
replaced throttle position sensor 21 mpg
removed air box and installed k&n air cleaner 24 mpg and better performance
removed stock exhaust and catalytic converter. installed high flow muffler with dual outlets and 2 1/2" pipe now 28 mpg and a cool sound.
Cost of repair done myself $650
exhaust manifolds leaks.
Slow power windows.
Replaced heater core.
General comments?
I like this truck. It is easy to drive, comfortable and powerful enough for most any situation. I have spent some on repairs, but not unreasonable for the year and mileage of it. I believe there is still better mileage and performance in this vehical. Fine tuning and some performance parts will help.
