KL9    Automatic Stop/Start
1 -  Included and only available with (L3B) 2.7L Turbo engine. 
2 -  Standard on vehicles built before 6-7-2021. Most vehicles built on or after 6-7-2021 that are equipped with a V8 engine and (MQB) 10-speed automatic transmission will have (NSS) Not Equipped with Automatic Stop/Start, which removes Automatic Stop/Start and its content. See dealer for details.

Mine was built last Sept.  I hate it, always disable it on every start because the few times I did not disable it when it was new, it jerked with it came back on and that seemed to me to be hard on the engine.

I thought I'd be able to just keep disabling it every time I started my truck but ended up installing the Autostop eliminator.

i think GM relized no one likes auto stop/start or DoD v4 in a powerful gas hog. i bought my truck to burn fossil fuel  and increase the global warming for our friends in Alaska, doing my part to make 'AMerica Great Again!

It will be back after the shortage.  For now its the same reason they are taking away HD radio for a while.

If I don’t like the 2022 refresh along with not having any HP/TQ increases. I can see myself finding a leftover 2021 model without auto stop/start and DFM. (Granted, if any leftovers are available😂) Best of both worlds. Just a nice old Chevy small block without the hassle of those 2 things. I turn my auto stop/start off all the time.  The DFM isn’t as bad but I’d rather have a V8 all the time.

Just got my build sheet for the new truck and the build date is 6/9/21. No DFM, and the Autostop button is there but the truck hasn't shut off at a light yet. Now I know why. Pretty awesome to get a 2021 with no stop/start or cylinder deactivation.

I can believe no Auto stop but they are still coming with DFM I'll bet.

Negatory, actually has No DFM listed on the sticker with a $50 rebate. I think some of the trucks have it and some don’t.

I would assume that if it wasn’t specifically listed as having RPO code NSS, you didn’t get a $50 credit, and you have the button in the truck then your truck does have auto stop/start.

    • You could try a used 1, they used that engine in the Astro vans, Plenty of them in the boneyard. Look for a wrecked or rotted 1 so the chance that it was scrapped for that reason and not a mechanical issue will be greater
    • Google converting 98 4.3 spider injection to carburetor if all else fails. 
    • My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.  
    • The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.
