Questions About 1990 Chevrolet S10 Blazer’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Chevrolet's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Chevrolet S10 Blazer? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small.

The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Chevrolet S10 Blazer? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Chevrolet S10 Blazer, potentially causing transmission problems.
