Rear glass / trunk won't lock?

While going over routine maintenance and cleaning, I discovered that my 1993 Blazer's rear glass wouldn't lock. It shuts and latches fine, but the exterior "t" handle with the lock cylinder behind...

RE: 93 4.3 Loping Idle, Stalls, am stumped.

Pass. side near FPR was "clean", but now that spider and nutkit are replaced, neither should be an issue. Old nut kit was cracked on inside of bend, old spider seemed ok, but FPR could've been bad.

RE: Stumped...Dies on Idle cold.

Another update....Today it rained, and I decided to try again.

Droplets spread on wet ground and had gassy sheen, so I think it's gas only, not a mix. Seems to be overly rich on idle, and dies....

RE: Stumped...Dies on Idle cold.

OK...new problem. Spider and Nut Kit sealed fine, pulled plenum and was clean and dry. But I'm guessing I hydraulic'ed a cylinder and perhaps blew a head gasket? It was idling last night, then...
