The fuel filter in a carburated 1983 chevy S-10 is located inside the fuel inlet nut at the base of the carburator (closest to the firewall).

SOURCE: have a 1994 chevy s10

You need to check and make sure you have fuel pressure, then check for spark at ignition, if those check out then check for pulse width at the injectors. That basically is the electrical signal which tells injectors to spray fuel. Use what is called a Noid light on injector pulse width check. that will eliminate all possibilities other than internal issues with engine. I.E. broken cam, broken timing components, obviously if all I mentioned checks out then run compression test. Good Luck

First check for battery voltage. Then make sure you have a check engine light when the key is in the run position. Make sure the fuel pump relay is good. Check to see if there is power on one side of the injectors, if these wires have a short to voltage or ground the injectors will not funtion properly. In this system the injectors are supplied with constant power and ground controls pulse width. In these blazers and s-trucks PCM ground sees to become an issue. In mine I directly routed the system grounds to a metal body panel under the right side of the dash. In my Blazer I swapped out the motors and converted from and automatic to a manual transmission. And another problem I found was when I lifted the dash to install my clutch pedal, I broke my brake light switch. In an automatic the brake pedal switch interups the ses light circuit. If the PCM dosent sense the ses light on the system cannot ground. Good Luck with it, At the time I had completed my second of four automotive level so it took me a bit to figure it out on my own. Once I took my level 3 (electricl) it sunk in alot quicker. Happy hunting, don't get too pissed off.

SOURCE: 89 chevy s10 blazer puff smoke out tailpipe when 1st started

A puff of smoke when you start up indicates worn valve seals.That's why all your work didn't fix the problem and it doesn't show a code. It's a pain in the --- job that requires some specialized tools so I guess it depends on how bad it bugs you,if oyu want to fix it.

Want to know where my fuel filter is on my 1988 chevy s10?

Follow the fuel lines underneath your vehicle. Most Chevy products have an in-line fuel filter canister along the fuel lines mounted to the frame or undercarriage. If there is, your local auto parts store will list the fuel filter replacement number in their filter guide book.

Have you changed the fuel filter lately? If not do so. Sounds like fuel restriction. Filter usually on frame rail passenger side. Good luck!
