Default My Blazer and i

Hello

I come from Gatineau in Quebec, Canada. I Got my first car a few months ago. My 99 Blazer. Ok now i don't have a huge knowledge when it comes in mechanic and maintance, But i really enjoyed my ride, and i wish to keep it rolling for a long while, add some touch ups too




Um, dont ask me much about what it packs, like i said i got a very small knowledge in term of mechanic. Automatic transmition, V6 vortec engine 4.3L. that pretty much what i can tell right now

I did change the stock air intake, for a cold air intake red
(PS: no pic yet, i changed the thign a few hours ago but camera batteries were dead D
I also bought a set of square lights for the roof (trying to figure out where to put them thou)

At this point i did put some money in repairs of the small kinks, still some left

My alignment is maxed, but it seems my rear differential is not straight to the frame (or something like that my mecanic said) thus it always seems to go for the right on its own, Also my front differential was cracked and fixed by wielding, however i think even i could do a better job, its still leaking a little bit. I got some wires touching each other, when i roll, i keep hearing my turn flasher sound at irregular interval,(can happen anytime lasting any moment) the flasher it self dont go on thou just the sound(and it sometimes go really fast, you'd think you got a lightning in your flasher unit) The flasher unit has been changed but no effect, Also seems whenever i have the front hood up, and the wiring gets move a little bit, i got my door ajar sound going on, and my front yellow lights blinking
i also got a defect ABS sensor on one of the side, i temporarly removed the ABS Fuse due to the problem it gave me during braking

And im trying to know what should i do as term of Proper maintance and what would you guys (probably better than me in mechanic :P) would suggest i add on it :P

thanks in advance people
