I have a 1988 S-10 Blazer 4.3 TBI 4WD. The oil filter is on the driver's side fender with 2 lines running to the lower engine. I can see oil leaking, but not sure how to fix it. It is in a pretty tight spot. I guess the oil lines go to a sending unit that sends oil to the filter. Any suggestions or ideas would be appreciated. Thanks.

As reported before this could be a ordinary issue and in the event that they have in no way been replaced it somewhat is in all probability extra that only the o-rings. the stable element is that those oil lines at the instant are accessible aftermarket. I even have owned a 1990 and a pair of 1994 s-10 blazers and that i've got replaced the oil lines in all 3. the lines are approximately $60 funds (aftermarket) and that they comprise the o-rings. a socket and a very long extension will provide help to get to the bolt below the motor vehicle. grab a flashlight and seem on the decrease area of the motor on the driving force component. what your searching for is above the front differential. you will in all probability would desire to combat with it a lil bit regardless of the undeniable fact that it is fairly person-friendly to alter.

sounds like it's lift time.
there some things you can do your self, and there some things that a lift and mechanics tools are ment to do.
strangely, at times a hard to get at place up on top, is easy under neath

the lines are not usualy fixable. there is no quick fix for this. you'll have to get new lines. you can check the filter o-ring, but.........
