hello, i have a 4 door 96 blazer 2wd 4x4 with the v6 4.3 vortec. when i start it, it clicks for a while and quits. it also chugs when i get it up to 45-60 mph. and the last problem is that a few days ago the coolant and radiator were dry, but it doesn't leak.

 

clicks as in ticks or knocks when its running? does the ticking get fast with higher rpm?

sounds like your engine is eating coolant and thinned/contaminated the oil

 

its like ticking and it gets faster when i get on the gas. why would it be burning coolant? like what would you suggest looking at/fixing? ME = auto Noob

 

TTT. i am a noob when it comes to cars/trucks. please help

 

when was the last time you got the oil changed? and what kind did you use?

 

idk about a month ago and not sure what kind. what kind would you suggest?

wheel wobbled the lugs off and rolled off into the field. i hear this is a common issue with s10s. its something about the aluminum rim. anyone else have this problem?
