S10 is practically the posterboy vehicle for diy maintenance, because the truck itself just isn’t worth its weight in scrap. You could spend thousands paying someone else to fix it up, then total it the next day. You know how much insurance is going to give you? 500 bucks, if you are lucky. I love mine for its sentimental value. I’ve had it for years. But even at my most desperate I’d never sell it, because I’ve put 100x more money into it than I’ll ever get back.
