Yes you are entitled to an opinion. What you say about Autozone is correct, however, I believe that there has been a misunderstanding here. The other members have offered good advice. The other members of this forum know very well that the advice of the Autozone employees should not be trusted, and would never advise someone to listen to them. The sole purpose of sending people to Autozone or Advance is just to get the codes, this saves people money, because by doing it this way, they don't have to buy a scanner or pay a shop for diagnosis.

The main purpose of this forum is to educate people and help them fix their problem properly as efficiently, and economically as possible. Utilizing these free services help us accomplish this goal. The reason the others responded so defensively is because your "opinion" was phrased in way that made it appear that you were saying that their advice was bad and they weren't trying to help.

No No No! I Think Its Great How Everyonr Trys To Help Each Other Out Here, And Certainly Didnt Mean To Discredit Anyone I Just Didnt Want To See This Guy Go Listen To Az And Get Misled Thats All, Put Just To Let Them Pull A Code A Can See That. I Have A Shop And Az Pisses Me Off With The Misleding Parts Selling Sham. I Always Have Someone Come In And Want Me To Install The Part Az Told Them To Change. And I Wont Do It. I Guess I Let My Personnal Feelings About Az Get In The Ay Of My Better Judgement. Sorry

All is well.

RexT, you still out there man? Did you get any codes from Advanced, if so, What were the exact codes? With everything you replaced, it sure sounds like BLT says, check for coil arcing at night.

jd-autotech, this forum is very cool and very forgiving. An apology goes along way, Thanks for sharing.

At night check to see if there is blue arching around the coil area.

It will have to be pitch black to see it.

If you folks remember about 5 or 6 weeks ago I had a very simular problem with my Blazer with an all new ignition system, and we all came to the conclusion that it was my carb. Which it was (and still is if I could run it) but I didn't worry about it too mch since I was replacing the motor with the diesel.

Sorry that I didn't do a followup then, but I just don't like a few things on AF now so I'm posting less and less.

While trying to make it run better I discovered that the fuel pump had lots of volume, but no pressure. Replacing it helped but still didn't resolve the problem.

I know that carburators are different than FI, but it gives you somewhere to look.

Good luck

I had a similar problem (running bad occasionaly w/ses light on) with my 95 and it turned out to be the EGR was clogged with carbon. Using the Sea-Foam did the trick for me. It was only $6 and it won't hurt anything.
