it could possibly be the starter, or the alternator. you can call an auto parts store, and get a price on a part, and then call an automobile repair shop and see how much it would cost to get it fixed. First ask about if they provide the part, then ask how much if you provide the part. They aren't that difficult to repair though, especially on a little S10.

No and no. Tab said the truck turns over but won't start; that means the starter is engaging but the motor is not firing up. And the alternator has nothing to do with starting; it has to do with the charging system.
A typical problem in GM vehicles is the fuel pump going out without warning. Check for fuel pressure.
Could be a fuel concern but it could be a faulty ignition module or coil.
If you can hear the fuel pump prime when the key is turned to the run position, check for spark while cranking. Let us know.

This is a terrible response! You don't understand cars or mechanics.
The shop doing the repair isn't going to like you bringing a part and asking them to put it on. If they do agree to install the part you provide, you will likely pay more for labor to offset the lost profit they would have gotten by selling you the part. And you will get no warranty.
You don't take a steak into the restaurant and ask them to cook it.

*ROFL* Omg, I love you
People don't understand this concept....the same way they think there's nothing wrong with calling me up and asking me how they can fix their car themselves. Would you ever in your life dream of calling McDonald's and saying, "Can you tell me how to make your Quarter Pounder? I just don't feel like paying you for it"? NO, you wouldn't!
