I have a 2002 S10 2.2L and when the temp drops below 15 or so it takes up to 5-10 mins to get it to start. As soon as the Service Engine light comes on while cranking is when it will fire. Soon as the engine warms up it will start fine. If you pull it into a garage or if the temp outside rises it will start fine. I have had the fuel filter, ignition control module and fuel pump changed so far. Also used gas line anti-freeze for the last few tanks. Any help would be great

Went to start my S10 several weeks ago after a few mths sit up. Stearted then died I quickly tried to restart and didn't here the fuel pump make it's usual pre start noise. Looked for a fuse blown. Checked them all (didn't know if the fuel pump had one or where it was) All looked good. Replaced the fuel pump nothing. Today I bought a fuel pump relay nothing. Anybody ever have this problem or know a fix?? Charged the battery turns over good but no fuel 1985 S10 PU 2.5 FI Thamks Replies to this message: plaiddreams (Jul 30, 2007 10:04 am)

My S-10 died again on another rainy day and would not restart..I changed distributor cap,plug wires,rotor cap,distributor module.It started, but I had a high pitch whine(sounded like a vacuum leak)..the truck ran for 3-4 minutes with the whining sound than it died again and I am back to square on..Any ideas of where to look next?????? truck is 6cyl, 4.3 runs great up till now..

Replying to: s1089 (Jan 21, 2007 10:15 pm) I had a vacumme leak on my V6 one time that I found by accident. There was a hard rubber boot in front of the air valve body that was cracked on the bottom. It had a 1/4 in. vacuume line coming off of it. After I fixed that, it ran great. Good luck,   Replies to this message: joec10 (Jan 23, 2007 1:02 am)

Replying to: hoodlatch (Jan 22, 2007 6:27 pm) I will go over all the vacuum lines once the weather warms up--I have a 2001 s-10 but I garaged it during winter and drove the 93. I will keep that tip in mind--thanks for the information..
