4X4 Low Hesitation
Hey guys, i'm new the the 4X4 world, i was actually an import racer before i bought my '97 Blazer LS. I'm just curious, when i put it in 4Lo, and push the gas, it starts moving slowely and then jerks to a higher speed, it does this every time it changes gears. Is this normal or is there really something wrong???

If you have a tachometer, watch it in 4 wheel low. You will see that the engine is reving up quick enough but the gear ratio is so low, you are moving slow. That is the purpose of 4 wheel low, for better control in tough situations. Not for normal use.

Re: 4X4 Low Hesitation

Re: 4X4 Low Hesitation
Encoder motor is having issues I think.
Check all fluid levels in your diffs and you tranny and transfer case.

Re: 4X4 Low Hesitation
now i know exactly what's wrong, well kinda. A freind of mine changed my oil as a favor the other day, he said something about unscrewing the wrong plug but i didn't think anything of it, he said it was on the driver's side of the engine facing the LF wheel, what is that for???

Re: 4X4 Low Hesitation
Front differential I think.
Inspect both differentials and the transfer case. So your friend popped out the wrong plug and didn't replace the fluid? Do yourself a favour, don't let this friend work on your truck again.

Re: 4X4 Low Hesitation

Re: 4X4 Low Hesitation
Sure.
I wouls service them anyway. Did your friend dump the oil out of the front transfer case and not replace what came out?

Re: 4X4 Low Hesitation
i think so, he said only a little came out, but it was obviously enough to screw it up...

Re: 4X4 Low Hesitation
