2000 s10 4wd zr2. Yesterday I decided to check what I had though to be a leaking oil filter. To my surprise my oil filter was tight but I had oil all over the top of my skid plate (zr2 s10), the block and my oil lines. After doing some research I found that leaking oil lines on the remote filter is a very common problem on four wheel drive s-10's. I also learned that I was one of the lucky ones that did not have these lines come lose and destroy the engine. I also learned about redesigned oil lines that gm came up with. This means that gm knew about this problem so why did this qualify as a recall? This is a very serious problem could be very easily over looked on the zr2's because of the skid plates. I wish chevy, gm, or even the dealer that I purchased it from would have told me about this when I bought the truck.
