Known issues on the 1992 S10. The 1992 S10 has 211 owner complaints behind it, and brakes account for 134 of them, close to two out of every three. Engine and cooling and the fuel system are next, tied at thirteen apiece. A technician facing that pattern will spend most of the time in the hydraulic brake chapter, where this manual gives bleeding sequences, lining and drum wear limits, hydraulic pressure checks and fastener torque values, then move to cooling system and fuel delivery diagnostics for the smaller clusters.
