I have a 95 S10 Blazer- vehicle code W (DI). The car starts fine but immediately wants to stall. If you press the accelerator you can keep it running and it runs down the road just fine until you slow to idle and it will stall. The book said it was the crank sensor. Where is it?

No its not the crank sensor if it were your car would not even start. your problem most likely is the idle air control valve, try removing it and and cleaning it if it does not help it will have to be replaced.

Shell etc. I have a 2005 Infinity Fx35 that doesn't want to start when i use any gas besides top of the line like mobile, di

A vehicle should run on any type of gas, (Gas in a gas engine, diesel in a diesel engine), but some engines are designed and tuned to run on higher octane fuels. The FX35 is designed to run on the higher 95 octane fuels. A lower octane fuel will give you poorer acceleration and lower performance.
Keep using the 95 octane premium fuels and it should start more easily.

The kick down cable on my 93 s10 blazer 4.3 is broken not even connected to throttle body I'm having alot of drivability and starting problems what would lack of this cable cause

the kick down cable is a mechanical connection that down shifts a transmission when the accelerator is wide open and the road speed is too low
as when going up a steep hill you have the throttle wide open and the vehicle needs to change down gears or the engine will stall
so no cable now down shift when required
run the fault codes as I would not think that the cable is the problem

I have a problem with a chevy S10 blazer 4.3L CPI (VORTEX) 4x4. I have changed the MAP sensor Coil Spark plugs Spark plug wires fuel filter and battery. The fuel pump works fine and it rolls over. When it...

I would start checking crank sensors and cam position sensors. There may be codes present that are not readable by over the counter OBD scanners. To get the real low down on the problem, the vehicle needs to be hooked up to a MODIS scanner. Otherwise you are going to rack your brain and your pocket trying to figure it out. Especially if it's intermitent. There are just to many possibillities with all the modules and sensors that are in place these days.
