#4 of 34 2002 S10 4Hi doesn't work by cyclonewoody Dec 05, 2007 (5:41 am)
I'm having trouble getting into 4Hi in my 02' S10. While in gear and moving, push the 4Hi button and nothing happens. Slow to a crawl, tranny in Neutral, push 4hi and both 4hi & 4lo lights flash but it kicks back to 2hi. Moving slow, tranny in Neutral, push 4lo and most of the time it kicks into 4lo, sometimes both 4hi and 4lo lights stay on or all lights are completely off, in this case, it's in 4lo but tranny won't shift and runs about 3000 rpm at 5mph. A couple of times I've pushed the right combo of buttons and got 4hi to actually work. Is this something electrical? Any help or suggestions on a fix would be appreciated.

Replying to: cyclonewoody (Dec 05, 2007 5:41 am) I had the same thing happen last winter. Try disconnecting your battery for a few minutes to reset the computer. Worked good for me..... Replies to this message: bigjay897 (Mar 15, 2008 8:10 am)

Replying to: s1089 (Jan 21, 2007 10:05 pm) on ur passenger side fender under the hood is a vacume module the line may be disconnected or you might have a break in the hard plastic going down to your transfer case. the only other thing it could be is the vent tube under your trk is clogged up

Replying to: harkins (Nov 20, 2007 5:52 pm) Jamie, the mechanic probably put it in neutral then shifted in to 2 wheel drive, then backed it up for 50 to 100 feet then put it in park and then back in to drive

#11 of 34 85 S10 4x4 ext.cab truck by toneyg Dec 27, 2007 (6:19 pm)
my question is, will a 3800 engine swap out a 2.8 engine already in my truck. I have over 350,000 miles on this truck and this 2.8 is my 2nd engine in this vehicle. this truck still looks beautiful and clean. I'm just wanting to get a little more power now since I have lifted it. I put in a 4" frame and a 2" body lift and put 31x10.50x15 tires on it. A 4.3 swap won't work due to the transmission hook-ups at the bell housing on the 2.8 is smaller than the 4.3. If the 3800 engine won't swap,then how far can I bore the cylinders out and how much cam can I put in it, to get more power to the wheels. This tire size change seems to need more power to turn them especially off road and in the the snow and ice. Someone please help me in this matter or offer any suggestions. Don't want a new truck. I have had this truck since Sept 1984 and bought it brand new off the show room floor in Texas, and kept it in near perfect condition. thank you for all input.
#12 of 34 4 whl drive stopped working by alrata Jan 14, 2008 (6:46 pm)
99 S-10 4 whl drive stopped working, the transfer case is a 233. the controler solinoids are clicking but not sure if motor is working on transfer case. The dash switches read 2 whl high and blink when I try to engage the 4 whl high but it stays in the 2 whl high mode. What is the most comon cause of failure, the vacuum operated cable to the diff or the transfer case motor and how do I check? Thanks for any help!
