#366 of 511 2002 Blazer - safety question by mcbuckster May 30, 2006 (10:59 am)
Im looking at a 2002 4wd Blazer - in great shape. My only concern is safety, especially the rollover issue. How safe or unsafe would you rate the Blazer as compared to midsize car like a Taurus, Accord, or Camry? Thanks
#367 of 511 Blazer Safety Issue by opa1 May 30, 2006 (12:12 pm)
You have to realize the Blazer is a truck,higher center of gravity. When we bought our first blazer we had to realize that and the constaant fear of roll over. You can't compare the Blazer with regular sedans they are closer to the ground. All you have to realize is, going into a turn, you can't take it as fast as a regular car.I hope this helps. I woun't trade my blazer for nothing but another one.                                    ED

Replying to: je101787 (May 04, 2006 3:01 pm) I have a jimmy gmc and it had a rod knocking. It is best to buy a rebuilt motor from www.citymotorssupply.com and pay someone to install it. It would cost the same as having someone rebuild your motor and you would get new parts.They will deliver your engine to a city near you. Replies to this message: repairdog (Jun 01, 2006 1:28 am)

Replying to: swalis1 (May 31, 2006 6:12 pm) The shop that installs will NOT help with someone elses rebuilt motor if it has problems so beware. If it has to come out for any reason you pay again. Ask about this and then decide. Any rebuild gets new pistons and bearings, crank work, cam/lifters, etc so read the fine print on "as required" or all get them - local shops usually do as good or better cause you live there and they cover their mistakes. Just an opinion.

Is this bad? If I just turn off the AC will it stop smoking?   M Replies to this message: tidester (Jun 01, 2006 3:43 pm) repairdog (Jun 02, 2006 4:35 am) angieandrohan (May 20, 2007 8:59 pm)

Replying to: greazyjungle (Jun 01, 2006 1:51 pm) Is this bad?   Yes, this is bad! Smoke means either electrical overloading or mechanical malfunction and where there is smoke there is fire. Get it checked out ASAP.   tidester, host

Replying to: greazyjungle (Jun 01, 2006 1:51 pm) Is it really smoke or probably steam (old burnt maple syrup smell??). Heater core blew if that so check your coolant reservior now. If dropping and you want a quick fix cause its hot out now, go to the auto store and get a plastic inline connector I believe its 5/8 and 3/4 and all stock them them, remove the heater hoses at the firewall and bypass the core, refill the coolant, off you go.   If really smoke do not drive as tidester said until the cause is determined.

Replying to: sdc2 (Jul 14, 2000 4:18 pm) I have a 96 blazer with 207,000 miles on it. The rear end is going out on it and I'm looking for someone to help me fix it for less than $1,000. Any referals would be appreciated. Replies to this message: repairdog (Jun 17, 2006 3:03 am) alexgabor (Jun 19, 2006 1:25 pm)
