Driving home with my brother and g-friend and son after 3rd qrtr of the Super Bowl in the .25 inch of ice in 4wd and bam, dies, nothing...we were pretty close to town so it ended up OK, but i was just getting ready to sell the giant piece of ****, it's getting gas, no spark, all fuses are OK, all belts are OK, all spark plug wires are OK, so we're thinking ECU....BLEH!!! **** it, I HATE DOMESTICS, never had this many problems with teh 7, we were just driving up a slight incline in 3rd gear doing 35 and it died and flashed the check engine light..

That sux. I hate blazers all together.

Sell the 7
get something with more cylinders than 7, less than 9. get something with a carb. problem solved. |
I'm just curious. Do you own a K-5 with a v8 or an S-10 with a v6?
|
1989 s-10 blazer 4x4
2.8l V-6 throttle body injection 5 speed manual 183k on the odomoter :P Sean |
Oh ok. I was just making sure Russ didn't make a fool of himself.
|
If you turn the key to the 'on' position, do the warning lights light up? 'Cause if so, the ECU ain't dead.
One common problem with those 60deg V6's is the ignition coil. Is there voltage on the signal wire for the coil? EDIT: BTW, I have a '93 bravada with the HO 4.3L V6.. And there's no simpler system to work on than these things. |
if youre getting no spark i would check the igniter and the whole ignition system before blaming the ecu. Chances are the igniter went out.
|
there are 2 things in the distributor that can go bad, ignition module(most likly), and the pick up coil.
|
After some discussion with a former s-10 blazer owner (owned 3 actually) he says it is most likely the ignition module also...so i guess I'll get that, and see if that works...if not, back to the drawing board...and i didn't notice a distributor on the motor just a point type thing...i could be wrong :|
