:banghead_ Ok men this is the deal;
4door 4x4 automatic 150,000 miles one previous owner,
so says them lemon lot lizard.I brought her home(cause i was in love):crazy_125 .
When she's good she's good when she's not..well:tapedshut .

1 under load up a slight grade she used to sputter.But then i found
S10 Planet!:bowdown: Bingo, replaced FPR and tada we have lift off.

2 when she's under a half tank full look out cause she will 'cutout'
powerwise.I have discovered that if i shut her down and start
her back up she will usually behave 'till i get to the station(why):dunce_125 ???

3 most time when i hit a good bump the dome light will flicker/ocassionally
the map lights on the rearview will turn on...and my favorite is the
speedometer is not visible Ever(kind of fun)(you see officer it just blinked out today):scared_12

4 i was running 1 bar higher then normal and had a dribble and a puddle of
antifreeze from time to time(about a month now).
I finally switched out the thermostat(180)advance auto guy suggestion...
now she's right on temp wise w/ a little dribble here and there.

5 Most importantly i need a freakin muffler 'i guess' and i'm seeking
your ideas.
I'm strapped for cash low on tools, just a bit of know how & alot of will!

ARRGGH feel better too.
Anyway she's a ballsy beast(the 'lil woman likes her):jump_125:

and thanks for the place to blow off some steam:rant: :brick: :usa2:

1- Congratulations.

2- You'll have to drop the tank to find the reason why. Most likely some dumbass replaced the pump and screwed something up. It'll be easy to spot once you pull the pump assbly.

3- Your door jamb switch is closing the ground for the lamps. Either adjust the door tighter or replace the switch.

4- Get some Bars Leak SealTabs. Put 3 of 'em in there. Comes from the factory with those tabs in but usually gets flushed out somewhere along the way.

5- I like Flowmaster.

Fuel is likely a mis-installed fuel pump assembly as Sparky noted or a clogged strainer screen in the tank. I was gonna be a smart ass abd say its just telling you it needs gas. The speedo......?....explain more. Is it maybe a bulb or something? Door trigger......what year? 2nd gens have a rtendency to have these break internally from the long reach of the striker pin. 1st gen its possibly grounding out behind the kick panel. Muffler....please dont do the Cherry Bomb!! Coolant leak......where is it leaking from? Maybe the waterpump going south? They have access holes for this to occur when the seals are going out.

Thanks fella's,replaced muffler w/discount stock one.Sounds alright.
Quickly learned 'that' ain't it! Although there seems to be more low & high
end power(when working).Auto parts kid sold me on air filter & pcv.
(i did need 'em).I pulled the egr off(what a pain in the **s)spanked it around then reinstalled (lost the right side bolt under intake AARRGGH)lmao..
Ps. guess what, still loses power at quick acceleration attempts...

so i may attempt sparky & the boys other remedies.
thanks again fella's
