  Q: How to replace the tailgate release door handle on Chevrolet S10?

  A: A tailgate release handle replacement starts with opening the endgate then drilling out the rivets attaching the endgate handle assembly to the endgate. You should begin by installing the rivet gun (J 34940) for drilling out rivets which hold the endgate handle assembly to the endgate before you extract the assembly from the gate. Install the endgate handle assembly onto the endgate through two rivet holes with aid from the rivet gun (J 34940). Use a rivet gun (J 34940) to drill the rivets that hold the endgate handle assembly to the endgate, before reinstalling the screws to join the inside handle with the endgate handle assembly. Tighten screws to 2.8 n.m force (25 lb in torque).
• Distributor Assembly

  Q: How to Ensure Proper Distributor Installation on Chevrolet S10?

  A: First disable ignition and remove the air cleaner assembly to replace the Distributor. Twist each Distributor Cap boot by 1/2 turn while pulling just on the wire boot to disconnect the Spark Plug Wires. First remove the electrical connector at the Distributor base while also removing the two screws which secure the Distributor Cap housing before discarding both components. Label the Distributor housing position with a grease pencil and write down the rotor's starting location on both Distributor housing and Intake Manifold. Gently remove the mounting clamp hold down bolt to extract the Distributor while keeping in mind the counter-clockwise 42-degree rotation of the rotor. Insert an additional second alignment mark on the Distributor base to ensure proper rotor positioning when it gets reinstalled. To install the Distributor assembly using procedure 1 begin by marking new Distributor housing components at the same positions as original hardware before removing the Distributor Cap when needed. Align Distributor rotor with the second mark and carefully guide the housing into the engine space while placing the base hole directly over the Intake Manifold mounting slot. During Distributor installation the rotor must rotate clockwise by 42 degrees until it rests against the Distributor base mark. Distributor removal must be performed if initial installation alignment does not meet specifications. First tighten the Distributor clamp bolt to 25 n.m (18 lb ft) while installing the Distributor Cap with new screws at 2.4 n.m (21 lb in) and reestablish electrical connection and add Spark Plug Wires and ignition coil wire in proper orientation. A faulty installation of the Distributor will result in a milokud6bz0jtq0p6nerat4q7xkcfnrxaiewemw and the dtc p1345 error code appearing after the installation process. During installation procedure 2 users must position cylinder number 1 at top dead center compression stroke before lining up the engine front cover tabs with balancer mark cranks. Place the white paint mark on the Distributor's bottom stem exactly over the pre-drilled indent hole in the gear. Set the rotor segment in its precise place according to the vehicle's v6 or v8 engine configuration. Guide the Distributor into position by aligning spark plug towers perpendicular to the centerline while the rotor segment finds its mark on the pointer of the Distributor base. If misaligned, repeat the procedure. Begin by tightening the Distributor clamp bolt to 25 n.m (18 lb ft). Install the Distributor Cap with two new screws tightened to 2.4 n.m (21 lb in), then reattach the electrical connector and install the Spark Plug Wires and ignition coil wire with correct wire placement noted. Running a successful installation procedure 2 should be followed to redo the operation if the mil remains on with a dtc p1345 detection.

  Q: How to replace the throttle body assembly on Chevrolet S10?

  A: Before replacing the Throttle Body assembly, remove this negative Battery Cable, take off the air cleaner outlet duct and the air cleaner adapte stud. After removing the cruise control cable and the accelerator cable from the Throttle Body, remove the nuts that fasten the accelerator cable routing bracket and set them aside. Then, unlatch and take off the stud and nuts that hold the accelerator control cable bracket in place and also store it aside. Pull off the idle air control (IAC) valve harness connector and the throttle position (TP) sensor harness, remove the Throttle Body retaining studs and pull out Throttle Body assembly, throw away the Throttle Body seal. For installation, clean the seal surface on Intake Manifold and install the Throttle Body assembly on a new seal, with a use of retaining studs that are tightened to 9 n.m (80 lb in). Install the accelerator control cable bracket using mounting stud and nuts tightened 12 n.m (106 lb in) then accelerator cable routing bracket nuts 9 n.m (80 lb in). Valve control for the throttle should be checked by ensuring free motion of opening and closing parts when using the accelerator pedal. Mount the accel cable & cruise control cable on the Throttle Body, connect the tp sensor & iac valve harness connectors. Mount the air cleaner adapter stud tightened at 8 n.m (71 lb in) to the air cleaner outlet duct. Lastly, ensure the accelerator pedal does not bind and examine the throttle position while pressing the ignition key with the engine off with the aid of a scan tool to display tp sensor parameter as the accelerator pedal is pressed and released to confirm the throttle position varies from 0 to 100 percent and to 0 percent.

  Q: How to replace or repair an emblem/nameplate on a pickup box on Chevrolet S10?

  A: You can start the pickup box Emblem/nameplate repair by covering the surface with tape before you use tape to mark its placement during assembly. Warm the Emblem/nameplate with j 25070 heat gun (J 25070) in slow circles for 30 seconds afterward use j 41409 body molding removal tool (J 41409) to pull it off the panel surface. Keep the tape attached and work with cleaning supplies to handle the intact tape along with the mating surface. Handle a new replacement when the tape sustains harm. Stick adhesive foam tape onto the back of the new Emblem/nameplate and press it onto its designated location. Use a 3m(TM) scotch brite molding adhesive remover disk model 07501 for body panel parts or rub with varnish makers and painters naphtha and water solution through a lint-free cloth for plastic parts. Dust the installation area clean and prepare it using a lint-free cloth dipped in the same cleaning solution. Then fully dry the area before proceeding. Set the installation point 135 mm forward of the Tail Light and 330 mm from the quarterpanel ditch unless marked earlier. Heat the mounting surface to between 27 and 41 degrees celsius (80 to 105 degrees Fahrenheit) as you keep the Emblem/nameplate at 29 to 32 degrees celsius (85 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit). After trimming the protective layer on the back of the Emblem/nameplate apply it to its marked position on the mounting surface then press down evenly across its entire surface. Take away the protective film from its intended area of installation.
