I have a stock 2000 trailblazer. I adjusted the air screw to lean out the mixture for riding at higher altitude. When I rode it down lower I noticed a bit of power increase and was able to pull 3 or 4 wheelies when holding the brake while revving then letting it go. I wasn't able to do them before.

My trail Blazer is all stock also, but i don't know hardly anything about four-wheelers so i don't have a clue what the air screw is.

Find you a small hill and practice applying gas and shifting your weight.

It takes quite abit of body english on an automatic. I started off riding one up a hill or using something to pop up the front end, logs, drops,etc. But learn how to work with the powerband

Buy a white primary from RCR and a K&N and it should be a little easier.

I can wheelie my stock Blazer easily. I admit it takes ALOT of practice and ALOT of body english. You also have to have good timing.
What I do, is hit the gas, it takes a second for the belt to engage unless you have clutch mods. Just before the belt engages, pull the bars up and back, and put all your weight as far back as possible. Thats the timing part, to do it a split second before, or at the exact same time that the belt engages.
It helps if you have some good weight to help, I am about 220lbs. I am good enough now, that I can put the grab bar in the ground if I want too.

I can touch the gas on mine and ride on the rear grab bar and cut perfect pieces of sod.

My buddy, on the other hand, bought a 2000 T'Blazer, and could lift the fronts maybe 2 inches until he added an HPD pipe and clutch.
