1997 Chevrolet S-10 LT review from North America
"Looks great"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to replace oil lines. I'm pretty sure you all know how much fun that was. Had to disconnect the engine mount and raise the engine up to pull the line.
The clutch fan went out.
Need brakes.
Need shocks. Still factory ones in it.
Replaced wiper motor for the front.
Replaced cruise control module.
General comments?
Well as you all know of the situation with the oil lines. I just wish they would have thought of an easier way of replacing them.
But otherwise, this Blazer has just as much repairs as any other truck or car I have ever owned. And I mean I have owned about every American and oversea's car. And I have to say that if it has 4 wheels and an engine, it is a piece of junk.
So motor on and enjoy the great coffee and the lovely folks you meet in your local repair shop lounge.
