1997 S-10 Blazer LT - 4.3 V6
------------------------------------
I bought the car used a couple of years ago and I have been slowly upgrading alot of the parts myself. I've now moved to replacing the brakes...
1. What brand/part # of replacement pads do you guys recommend?
2. I also wanted to change the brake fluid after the pad change. I bought the S-10 Chilton book. It says in BIG BOLD print, "Do not replace the brake fluid on ABS equipped cars unless you have a SCAN tool". Now, is this just overly warning work by Chilton or is this a serious warning? Whats the big deal? I replace the brake fluid on my Porsche and it has ABS. Not problems. What's so special about the Blazer?
3. If a SCAN tool is necessary, what do you guys recommend?
Thanks
