Been sitting for almost a year now, i has been turned on a couple of times though. Its a mexican full size blazer, like the Tahoe but 2 door, 5.7 engine TBI, turned on today and it started crappy and lots of smoke black smoke so what should i look for first, a neighboor told me to take the throttle boddie off and give it a good clean, what else...
 
Lots of black smoke???

Clean the rats/wasp nest out of the air cleaner.
 
Black smoke = gas. Empty the tank, put in new gas, plus some STP fuel injector cleaner and a new fuel filter.
 
What exactly do you mean by "Mexican full size blazer". Are you referring to an early 90s 2wd low rider with wheels that are way to small and backspaced way too much?
 
its a 2 door tahoe in the US, or a Blazer in Mexico.
 
BAD GAS, remove all the old gas and replace with fresh gas and change the fule filter as well and run some good injector cleaner through it.

Make sure to change the oil as well with a new filter (Wix preferably)
 
Its 97 model over in Mexico, Baja actually, just like the tahoe but 2 door its pretty nice thinking of taking it off my dad's hand's

Ok guys thanks for the help.
 
Interesting. What did they call the 4 doors?
