96 S10 4.3 V6 Vortec engine light on

I have a 1996 S10 4.3 V6 Vortec. The service engine soon light came on. The only thing that I can tell thats wrong with it is that it bogs out just a little while Im idleing. Dont know whats wrong and would like some suggestions. It only has 46000 miles on it.

Buy a code reader and follow the directions to retrieve the codes. The reader will come with a book listing the codes and what they mean. When the "service engine soon light" comes on it is usually because of an emissions equipment problem, but a spark plug miss or other such things will bring it on also.

You cannot tell anything without the codes. You can do it yourself or go to a dealer or other such place and get them read. The codes will point you in the direction of the problem and you can then fix it.

Hope this helps...


later..
