Well now I have two different codes.

P0441 Some evap problem that is going to be annoying.

P0113 High intake temp sensor voltage.

I'm getting really sick of my blazers hissy fits. I'm about to go give it a reason to cry. Stupid POS.

On a related note, I finally finished the heat shield for my intake (I was trying to fix the high temp code) but I think it is letting too much hot air in from the engine so I'm going to do some adjusting. As it is right now, the temp sensor is reading anywhere from 145*F to 165*F! I hope I can get the shield figured out, or I'm just going to remove the sensor all together and find a resistor that says the air temp is around 100* so my computer will shut up about it.

Well, now that I have a metric (bleep)ton of problems I have decided to sell the blazer this year (if I can get it registered then I'll keep it around for a few months) I am looking online for other blazers and so far it is looking promising. Check this blazer out. I really want to take a look at that one soon. I'd love a manual 2 door. But I'll keep you guys updated.

Hey, i know this is thogert's thread, but since there is a lot of talk about interior lighting and senior members on here, i wanted to know you all's opinion of if i should start putting together LED conversion kits for the 98+ blazers and s10's. Making the kits include all the LED's, sockets, and led components (for those tricky 4x4 switches and rear windshield controls; which i also have videos on how to do) in whatever colors requested. Please, any thoughts or comments?

I suppose you could, but I don't know how well they'd sell. And unless you get a discount on your supplies it would probably be cheaper for a person to get all of the leds themselves.

Well the blazer is up for sale. And don't worry Sean, it wasn't your fault. If my blazer wasn't so problematic, I'd keep it. Oh well, this is a great reason to get a 2dr.

Well not many people are looking at tigger, so it looks like I'm gonna keep it around for a little longer.

So I tore my interior apart to run wires to my front door speakers from my old amp and installed a 800w (peak of course ) kenwood amp for my subwoofer. It sounds pretty epic.
