One thing you could try is get yourself a soft mallet and hit the starter a once or twice. If that doesn't work have it tested. If you can, have someone else cycle the...

    m1009 blazer 25mph @ 8% grade

    One thing you could try, is a taller air filter element. What I mean is, your stock "HEIGHT" air filter is nicely protected by its housing which has an anemic small opening to feed air into the manifold. Measure the height of your air filter and replace it with one that raises the lid of the...
