You did what??
Okay, lets try to solve the problem. Your truck should not have any (gas) antitheft protection in the tank fill line. Use a 1/2 hose and siphon the gas tank empty. If you never done a siphon use a pump instead. Use a mechanical pump. No electric stuff!!! I'm not sure you'll be able to it all out. Since the tank is in the rear you should consider removing the tank to empty it. Fill the tank partially. Remove the fuel line from the carb. Run the carb fuel line out with another line to a container. BE CAREFUL!! Crank the engine and let the fuel pump fill up with new fuel. Reconnect the fuel line to carb and try to start the Blazer. It probably wont start. It's okay. Change the spark plugs. You just want to fill the carb with good fuel. Now crank the truck and start her up. She will run ruff until all the diesel is gone. This is only a suggestion. Someone else may have a better solution. This suggestion is all I could think of at the moment. Good Luck!! ------------------ Gerardo 1983 Custom Truck TX Plates: "BAD BOW" http://www.geocities.com/abetterchemist/ |

gchemist is right aboout syphoning the gas tank and the gas lines. I know someone that had the same prob and the also had to replace the spark plugs and he also had to replace the carb, not sure if you are going to have to. Good luck
