Replying to: canufixit (Sep 17, 2006 12:22 pm) I did what canufixit suggested and it seems to have fixed the problem... I cycled through all the climate control settings and now it seems to be fine.

Replying to: canufixit (Sep 19, 2006 10:50 am) I sent you a scanned copy of the form... I don't know how GM would respond to a copy, but if your vehicle falls under the recall criteria then I don't see why it a copy versus original would really matter??

Replying to: canufixit (Sep 17, 2006 12:22 pm) My problem was caused by rotting vacuum lines. Got my son to replace them and now everything working fine. Thanks again to canufixit. Bud Replies to this message: canufixit (Sep 26, 2006 6:08 am)

Replying to: boyce (Sep 24, 2006 2:54 pm) Thanks for the Fix Comment/reply. I should have mentioned that possibility- my fault. Although the engine vacuum pulls the air from the hoses - when the engine is shut down the fumes from the engine can travel up the lines (if there is no check valve - or if it's stuck open) and the fumes can then rot the lines.   Also the hoses just "age" and the ends crack - causing leaks (and rough engine idle/performance). I had a car back in the late seventies? that had a recall to add a check valve in the brake vacuum line - the fumes were rotting the brake booster diaphram.   Congrats - sometimes we get lucky and it's an easy fix !!!   Canufixit

#1978 of 2018 S-10 engine has trouble catching on cold start by jmorin007 Sep 26, 2006 (8:26 am)
I have a 1999 Chevy S-10 pickup. In the past three months it has started having problems with the engine catching while cranking from a cold start. The problem has continued to grow worse as time goes on. I can hear the engine cranking and am able to get the engine to start every time, but it takes longer and longer each time to get it to catch. Once the engine is started, and I drive it a bit, I am able to restart without any problem, but initially in the morning it has trouble catching. I park it outside, but the temperature never gets below 50 or above 85, although the air is usual damp.   Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Replying to: jmorin007 (Sep 26, 2006 8:26 am) Try this, turn key on run, when the pump shuts off, turn key off for about 10 seconds, then turn key on run again. When pumps stops the second time crank the engine to start. 2.2 or 4.3 ??? Replies to this message: jmorin007 (Sep 26, 2006 10:24 am) the_big_al (Jun 27, 2008 3:16 pm) gonogo (Sep 27, 2006 8:34 am)
#1980 of 2018 Re: Radio on S-10 Plays when it wants to. [canufixit] by alvinl Sep 26, 2006 (10:04 am)
Replying to: canufixit (Sep 17, 2006 12:13 pm) When I pull the radio and check the main speaker connections in the back where do I check the SCV? It is on the radio and is the little lever behind the volume button. Is there a special wire in the back or something where this is hooked up? Thanks for you help. Radio has played about 10 minutes in the last two days. It seems to like cooler weather?????

Replying to: gonogo (Sep 26, 2006 9:38 am) The engine caught a lot faster than it usually does..it still took two or three seconds, but thats faster than the 10 to 15 it was taking before. What is this indicative of?   4.3 liter. Replies to this message: the_big_al (Jun 27, 2008 3:16 pm) gonogo (Sep 27, 2006 8:34 am)
