Chevy s-10 Problems

Ok, so my buddy brett just stoped by because he was in the area and couldnt get his s-10 to start. Well I jumped in, turned the switch everything is turning over but the truck wouldnt start. So I pumped the gas then tried starting it, didn't work but sounded like it was going to. Repeated this about 4-5 times, then I finally got it to work. I told him it might be his EGR that was clogged or his throttle body. Now I just thought about his fuel injectors being clogged. What do you all think it could be? Its a 94 S-10 with the 2.2L I believe.

It's a sign that someone watching down on him wants him to get rid of the chevy...

ok, take and remove the fuel line. Turn the key over something like a dozen times, then stand back and throw a match. Just do him this little favor. Did you try stomp the gas pedal to the floor and hold it there while you try to start it??

I like everyone else's idea's! LOL

Don't pump those things to much, crank a little without the foot on the gas. make sure he knows that.......

Starters on chevy usually go out at about 80,000 miles.
