Nice work guys! 
6hrs, 1 replace fuel filter message, 1 reduced power message, 1 jug of DEF, and $230 in fuel later and we are back home. Time for beer.
Good work guys!
Cool to see!

Just bad fuel, or?
Not sure. We pulled over and added a jug of DEF even though it said the level was ok (stupid Chevy doesn’t have an actual gauge) and let it sit for a minute or two and then turned it on and never had another issue. Gonna swap the fuel filter out this morning before my sister and nephew and bil hit the road. We ran 3 tanks of fuel through this truck in less than 48hrs so I doubt it was bad fuel.
That's a pretty nice blazer.
Be a shame if someone..... smashed it into rocks.

This one is destined to spend less time in rocks and more time doing burn outs.
Before I installed a lift pump, I got one or two replace fuel filter messages. Haven’t seen it since. Also got rid of that stupid juice issue too.
It’s my parents truck so no deletes haha.
No need to delete for a lift pump. It could help the cp4’s life expectancy though.
I know. I was talking about the removed juice.
I read that as def problem went away as well as filter messages
Yeah the low def problem went away with the DEE- lete. And the nox sensor issues. And the def temp sensor issues and… oh, the regens! Damn, it’s been so long I forgot how much I hated it!
Funniest part of it all is, the truck still passes the whole smog test except for the visual. That just proves to me it’s a money grab.
Started cleaning it out. Got a long way to go.
