My New Daily, kind of O/T kind of not!
Meet my new daily driver, replaces my 98 Isuzu Trooper thats been a royal PITA.
Its a UK spec 2001 S10 Blazer LS, V6 with a manual Transmission running on both gas or LPG (Propane), should keep me happy whilst I get the truck back on the road. Needs a damn good tuneup/service and a few problems sorting but its great fun.

Re: My New Daily, kind of O/T kind of not!
Nice choice.I had to break down and replace my 69 as my daily. I bought a 02 Tahoe this week as well. I don't know how to act with radio, heat, no gas fumes.....

You are going to like your Blazer! They can go well over 200,000 miles with very few problems!Just watch for the fuel pump at around 100,000 miles.

Re: My New Daily, kind of O/T kind of not!
Nice truck. One question, The dual fuel, is it factory installed or aftermarket? I would like to see a picture under the bonnet.

Re: My New Daily, kind of O/T kind of not!
Heres some pictures i took myself the other day. The gas conversion is aftermarket, its a simple single point injection system with the gas being fed nto the inlet after the air filter. Its not ideal, the latest multipoint sequential systems are way better but much more expensive. If I find the money I might get it changed one day. This system has a tank where the spare wheel used to hang, a vaporiser which you can see in the pictures, its the round thing to the left of the engine, its plumbed into the coolant circuit to warm it and this then vapourises the gas.
