How can I unlock my 97chevy c1500 manual locks keys in the ignition

You can do it with an untwisted old style wire coat hanger on the side nearest to you but it involves a lot of fishing about blindly. Using a thick rag to protect the paint, you can GENTLY lever the top of the door away from the body a small amount. Enough to get the wire in. You can then fish around to try and hook the door pull inside the vehicle to open it that way.
And thirdly, the nasty one, break a window.

There used to be service bulletin on the spider fuel system for sticking poppet valves on first start up of the morning. Then it would usually run fine the rest of the day. The fix was to clean the poppet valves. The cleaning procedure I saw was a shop procedure.
If it isn't a fuel issue, engine cranking, the vehicle systems get battery voltage, engine running the systems get alternator voltage, that can be several volt difference. Any applicable trouble codes?
