Oh my god! your gonna laugh at this shit. The guy I bought my blazer from, Drilled holes in the thermostat. His reason, It wasn't opening. He physicaly removed a $3 part and drilled holes in it and then put it back in. a F***ing $3 part. I can just imagine what else he cobbed. If $3 is too expensive. I don't even wanna know. When he told me this, I was like speechless. This coming week-end I am Installing a new amp for the Boom Boom. Plugs Wires Oil Filter Gas filter Coolant/anti-freeze, and maybe an alternator. I'm also buying euro-tails and clear corners. Oh yeah and when I've saved up the cash by next summer and buy wheels and tires. I'm lifting her not lowering her. Why drop a 4wd truck?

Tune the engine up BEFORE you install an amp.

Also remember air filter and the pcv valve.

I am married but by god I will throw her out the door if you will marry me.

Seriously though raise that shit up. I can't stand seeing a 4X4 on the ground, its just not right. I am still saving my way to a 3/3 lift with bigger tires. Not sure how much bigger yet.

BTW I get about 13-15 MPG city.

i have a 95 GMC jimmy. i get about 15 city and 19-20 highway (without cruise control) after new cpi and nut kit. i also have K&N FIPK but stock exhaust (performance system on the way).

BlazerLT · 09-13-2005, 12:29 AM

Looks like we are all driving gas guzzlers.

In my section of town, there is lights everywhere.

I get 13.7mpg around here now and 24 on the highway.

THe tales of my death, running off with BlazerLT or starting an Autozone location are exagerated at best. At the moment though, waiting for the payroll office where i work to cough up a bonus so I can replace a recently ruptured fuel regulator. Car-pooling with the roomie's getting to look better and lamer by the moment - but I digress. My really good fuel economy is in the pits along with gasoline prices, but guess which is rising faster at the moment? Was getting really good mileage, but now she barely runs at all, so she sits awaiting a CPI and nut kit to arrive. *sigh*

BlazerLT · 09-13-2005, 04:00 AM

you sure it is not your EGR valve?

Gabe25 · 09-13-2005, 04:04 AM

I have 94 S-10 Blazer Tahoe. I'm getting around 24 miles to the gallon.
