Hi all

Picked up a 94 s10 blazer last weekend that was running rough. Removed the intake plenum cover and found gas inside and a leaking line. Today I got the CP nut kit, a fuel pressure regulator, plugs, wires, cap, rotor and new plenum gasket. Is there anything else I should look for after I put this back together?
The truck was running rich and smelled of gas and was smoking pretty good before I took it apart. Any input would be great. Thanks

That's a very comprehensive list. The only thing I might do in addition to what you have listed is to change the fuel filter. There's a good chance nobody has replaced the filter in the past.

Enjoy your Blazer!

While you are under there you might as well change the injectors if you have the fuel nut and regulator. (that is going to suck FYI and be careful with the lines idk where you live but they probably rusty and you are going to have to move/bend them to get the fuel nut on) I mean you could replace all that and the injectors go bad a couple thousand miles later and you have to take it all off again. They are very **** to going bad especially if the fuel nut went bad.

Thanks for the replies. I put it all back together and it is running like a champ.Right after I finished I ran it through emisions with no problems and got my tabs and the title transfered. $500 for the truck $250 in parts and a good wash and wax and scrub of the interior and Ive got a pretty clean Blazer. I think it ended up being a pretty good deal on my part.
