Hi Guys
I have recently purchased this truck. It runs fine. I have noticed the sound of water coming up from the passenger side. May be the AC ducks are clogged or what is it.
The coolant level is ok. Any help will be appreciated.

2002 Blazer 60,000 mile service by aharris680

Hi guys,
I have a 2002 Blazer 4x4 V6 Automatic. It is due for a 60,000 mile service. The dealer is trying to get me to do all kinds of items that are not in the service manual, the 3 expensive ones being a full fuel system service, power steering flush, brake system flush. Does anyone know what all I should actually do for the 60,000 mile service on a Blazer.
Thanks,
Alan

This sounds like your evap casing is fill up with water and not draining , drain hole may be cloged. If it were coolant, engine temp. would be show higher.

Yes, of the two important fluid to monitor motor oil and transmission this is one of them. but shop will want to sell you a transmission flush. don't do it. The american transmission builder association does my endorse flushes. again depending what type of vehicle you have a transmission service is the best. A service is dropping the transmission pan and replacing the filter, clean the pan bottom, place the pan back and replace the fluid that only came from the pan. yes, transmission change every 30k the other option is $3000 to rebuild it.

1989 S10 Blazer by s00tedpair

I have a problem that I want to check on before I take it to a mechanic.
I have a 1989 Chevy S10 Blazer 4.3L V6 w/ air and ~140K miles on it. Recently I was driving to work (only 4 mile trip) and it started coughing/sputtering something fierce and the cab started to smell like antifreeze. The power brakes stopped working and the heater quit blowing. I got into the parking lot at work and it continued to cough/sputter for a good 2 minutes before it finally choked and quit. 4 hrs later going home it ran perfect.
 
This cough/sputter episode has happened 3 or 4 times in the last month or so and I need to figure out what is going on. I maintain it regularly, there is pleny of coolant and I can see no evidence of anything major happening under the hood.
 
The only thing I can think of is that about 2 months prior to the first incident, the idler pulley broke, which broke the serp. belt, which means I drove it at most 4 miles with none of the belt driven components working.
 
I am at a loss(not being any sort of mechanic) and I dont want to go to a mechanic not knowing anything about my situation....any help would be greatly appreciated
