I have great appreciation for this group. I'll try not to make this lengthy while being thorough. My name is Kristi. I just turned 50 yesterday. Bought my 2002 blazer, Beatrice, in August of 22. My first V6, 4.3 vortex 4x4. Beatrice is the first car I really worked on , aside from minor maintenance..... Here I would like to add I joined this group at the beginning of 23. Due to my own security and phone issues, I had to just join again. Wanted to note that because I really admire and appreciate what you have going on here. I was really floored by the magnitude of knowledge and massivness of this group. 🙂 I did not go through the hoops and take the time to introduce myself....
I Am not sure if I will be able to keep Beatrice.. Trying to keep it short.. But I at least want to give her thr decency of not giving up.
I will be starting around brakes, rear ends, wheel bearings and axles. So that's probably more than you wanted but thanks for the space and wisdom.

Start a new thread for each issue that you need help with and we can get you right. We have turned more than a few into decent mechanics/trouble shooters on this site.

Thanks for the compassion and direction. I did submit a new thread in one of the forums yesterday afternoon. I am just now able to check for results. And most definitely! I have turned into quite the backyard mechanic. I'm 5ft.1 in and have had to stand on top of the engine for leverage. I have a whole new respect for mechanics. Yet, interestingly enough, every job my blazer needed, in the end, I had to do it. I have learned much🙏

 

Welcome to the Blazer Forum.

 

Hi Kristi. Welcome to the forum! There's tons of very knowledgeable people here, and we try to be friendly and helpful. I know I've received tons of help with keeping my trucks running over the years. I'm on my 2nd S-series truck right now, and with the help of the forum it's still going strong.
