HI, Have you looked at your EGR valve? our air cleaner could be real dirty, the mass airflow sensor could be bad, Ther's any number of things that could be bad or wrong. Have you had your codes read? The reasdout from the OBD can lead you in the right direction. The problem I found is that it raeds from the last component failure or problem and it stores fropm the most significat problem first so you get one thing done then you go to the net. I have a '97 2dr auto 4wd abd I've gone through many things and I'm still not done. I'm glad we're all here to help each other. Good luck and keep asking if thyou find out. Steve H.

16 valve engine (intake and exhaust) Cold 0.005 to 0.007 inch (0.13 to 0.17 mm) Hot 0.007 to 0.008 inch (0.17 to 0.21 mm)

Hi, According to their web site the only have mounting instruction sheets for back as far as '97. You would need to look at where it's mounted on the '97 and look at the structure of the '96 and compare. http://www.westinautomotive.com/pages/westin%20safari%20light%20bar%20apps-ALL.html#chevy That's the web site where you can download a PDF of the mounting instructions. I sure hope this helps you. Good luck. Steve

Look to the alt. belt. It may squeal under load.

The best way would be to remove the drive shaft from the vehicle before towing. Many transmissions do not circulate the transmission oil or fluid unless the engine is running. Removing the drive shaft will keep the rear output on the transmission from turning while towing it.

If it fit on a 1994, then it will fit on your 1993 with no problem.....

my book says 5 degrees BTDC

minimum 35 psi

Vanna White is begging for a NOUN...

or even verbs?

I have a 93 and it gets 25 MPG around town. A little better on the highway, but not much.

No over drive. It only has a 3 speed automatic.

Hi, The heater core is under the dash but down low . You have to take apart some of the heater ductwork to get to it. I'm curious as to why you need to get the heate rcore? Is your heat mnot coming out? Is there fluid dripping under the dash, because that can mean the core or a hose is leaking. If you would please add a bit more then we can guide a bit more. If you know your core is leaking, and need to get it out, then please e-mail me and I'll talk. shandmal@comcast.net Steve H.

you forget to say, is it too loose or too tight? guess at latter.

there are 3 cables.

one for older.

one for 2dr

one for 4dr and

96+ has rubber mounted mushroom on end of cable.

so if you have the correct cable

if you removed either of the two slined levers on

the clutch bell main shaft or the lever on the pedal you really really messed up. because there is no written procedure for that.

tell more ,get more. fast.

To dissconnect the alarm on my newley purshased 1996 geo tracker i took 2 fuses out behind the toggle switch under the dash.It didnt work right and the light always stayed on.

Hi, I have looked at my own and I don't find any wires coming from the rear axle assy. I must assume that you are referring to the rear axle assy. If this is not what you are talking about, please explain your question differently. Another thing to do is go under the vehicle and try and trace what you're seeing and come back with a better picture of what you see. I hope this helps and we look forward to hearing from you. Steve H.

From what I've seen . . . yes. It appears 1996 -1998 was a run on most everything dealing with chassis and dash parts between the X-90, Sidekick, and Tracker.

yes, if 8v for 8v or 16valves to 16v

if not , huge list .

see my swaps page, in my profile.

check the electronic fuel pump harness for shorts at connector ends

there are 2 timing gears one on the cam (top) cog,

and the bottom cog

the bottom cog torque spec was revised in 1996

at the 17mm bolt, to 94/ft/lbs

There is a fill plug on the right side of the transmission,square hole in the side of it. Use a 3/8 drive ratchet to remove it. Or you can remove the shifter from the top of the transmission and fill it with1 and a half quarts of gl4 gear oil.

there are 8 sidekicks model out there in the market

There's no secret to removing Tracker drums. Four nuts hold the drum to the inner hub. Remove those, ensure the parking brake is off and the drum should slip right off. If not, you may have to pry out the rubber plugs on the back of the brake backing plate and use a screwdriver to rotate the adjusters until the brake shoes get slack enough to allow the drum to come off.

Expect to replace the 4 studs and the nuts that hold the drum on. These and the wheel studs and nuts fail and cross thread worse than any other car I've ever owned.

There is a discussion of this here... http://tinyurl.com/yoc7vy there are several opinions.
