I had to take the whole engine cover off if thats what you mean. So yes I did. And what i dont understand is how it went from almost dieing idleing so low to spiking the rpms then dieing. It really confuses me

 

bump

 

Its tuff to diagnose something like that without scanner readings....
About all I can say is...Go back to the point wqhere everything went to ****...It ran good,right?..before the cover came off?..so SOMETHING is wrong...go back over it and scan it all good!

 

it ran ok until the first spider went out. then i had it and it would idle really low like a vacume hose was off. then one day i started it and it started idling high again. It really makes 0 since.

 

For the time and trouble it may be beneficial to take it to a shop at this point.
Unless this isn't a vehicle you have to use on a daily basis.

 

Oh im only 16, i just would like to have my own car instead of using my parents. But i dont really want to spend the money on that. I also think i found a problem today and i plan on fixing it sometime this week probabaly tomorow. I found that on the back left corner the gasket or seal under the cover was out and not in line. so i think that could be where the air is getting in. So i will fix that tomorrow and let you guys know what happens. Also thanks for the replys.
thanks,
Randy

 

95 is when you were born.....I thought that was the year of your truck.
Yeah, I feel old.

 

well I had the same problem with my 95 s10 blazer. replaced the spiders AFTER the white smoke also thew on the EGR valve for good measure.one quick question and statement, did it burn a LOT of gas right before you replaced the spider? the reason I asked is that my blazer started putting out a lot of white smoke and burned a 1/2 tank of gas on a 22 mile trip

 

White smoke is more common with a head gasket - it's actually steam.

 

Um well after i put on the dang spider it started smoking really out of the exhaust bad when it would idle high. and it didnt burn alot of gas but it did lower the mpg a little bit. and age is just a number .
