This Chevy S10 has been abandoned in a field since 2001, near as I can tell. Will it run after 22 years of rotting in a Michigan field? Let's find out!

Save that engine!! The 2.5L Iron Duke is one of the most reliable engines ever built!!

The leaf blower is actually a great idea. Gets all the big crap out of the way.

It definitely gets the job done. I use it after I wash a car, too. It helps 👍🏼👍🏼

The camera makes it look better than it is, but I'll find a good home for it 👍🏼

They're cool trucks. Hard to find around here these days.

The rusted, broken piece you held down is an EGR valve…easy to replace. I agree about the distributor cap location…it is a real bear to work on. Also, if you need to replace the coil, you have to fashion bracket out of the old one and bolt it to the new one. Plus, it’s is practically impossible to see…have to work on by feel.

Wow. That sounds like a mess. I wired the EGR down for now. One day I'll find something to use the engine in and fix that part then. 👍🏼

The clutch master & slave is not that expensive from Rock Auto. I replaced mine. It’s a bear to work both master & slave into place, but can be done. TIP: if you are going to bleed the clutch, the best way I found was to reverse-bleed by placing a fluid bottle down by the slave, attach hose to open slave bleeding nipple, then use your hand pump to draw the fluid UP through the master to the reservoir. 👍

That's a good tip on bleeding it. As for the parts... This truck just isn't worth it. I can't ever drive this thing, but I'll replace the parts when I pull the engine and trans to put in something else. It'll be a really easy job then :)

Good luck with this one! I just did some work on the clutch system in my S10 (Slave Cylinder) and can tell you the the entire clutch system in these are notorious for being difficult to bleed. One tip is to have the front up a little as if it were on a set of ramps and that helps with the slave cylinder itself - You don't have to do that but it can help sometimes. I did create a vid myself the other day on how to do this in a really simple way, so you can refer to the vid I created to see how I approached this problem and maybe it will help - Maybe not but it's there. Once again, good luck and keep up the good work!
