Changed the link out. Looking at the old S10 one I had, I saw what was wrong, installed the Z28 one. Turned the key and to my ears the sweet hum of the fuel pump. Purged the fuel lines with about 5 turns of the key, said a prayer and with one full turn of the key IT CAME ALIVE. Of course I may have some kinks to work out , it seemed to be running good and rich also the coolant gauge never went up (which I may have a wire crossed) and I forgot to install an new thermostat and then install a oil pressure guage. One more thing to do is change my tranny fluid and filter while it's on the jack stands and then get my gas pedal installed so I can back it out of the shop. MAN I AM STOOKED!!!!!!!!!
