Hey Kevin,
  My 1998 Chevy Blazer has been doing this for the last 5 days. Man, I have been to several auto-electrical shops and have replaced the flasher twice.
Your explanation has been the best and makes the most sense of all. Just when I had reached the end of my rope. Thanks for the knot. I'll get back with you to let you know how it worked out. Peace out. Ebs57

I'm having the exact same problem, except mine wont restart easily. It'll take an unspecified amount of time (from seconds to minutes, most being 10 so far) before the dash will "light up" so that I may try to start the engine. IN a nut shell, it looks as if the dash is losing connectivity to the PBC and then that's killing the fuel pump, distributor system, ect.
 
Did anyone have a reply for your question?

I am going to replace the plugs, wires, cap and rotor on a 1998 ZR2 Blazer 4.3L... Just would like to have a heads up for any difficulties... I Have a standard socket set w/ spark plug socket... do I need any special tools I.E. wobble extension, or other weird stuff? Any insight will be helpful... I hate running to the parts store halfway through a job... Thank You!!!

Same problem here with my 1999 Blazer. Just randomly decides to not start. It crank fine, no problem lights or any other problems. Dealer could not find any problems in their diagnostic but it was ready for a major tune up for $700 so I had that done. Two weeks later the problem happened again. Read your post and went out and banged on the gas tank with a 1920's police stick. I really can't believe that fixed the problem but it did!!!!!!! So now I carry it in the car with me. Not sure if this is related but the three times that this problem has happened I had just filled up the tank. Think I am gonna just fill up to 3/4 of a tank for a while and see if the problem returns. Thanks again for the highly technical solution.

#1568 of 3674 1993 Chevrolet S10 Blazer dies at an idel by labster

Sep 25, 2005 (9:58 am)

I have a 93 Chevrolet S10 Blazer with the 4.3L V6 engine code W. We have changed just about everything on it ranging from a new fuel injector,fuel pump and filter,O2 sensor,mass airflow sensor,new spark plugs and plug wires, new distributor and rotor button,put new ground wires to the motor,new motor mounts,we're at wits end trying to figure out why this truck keeps dieing when you turn a corner slow or when its ideling or in park. Had a compression check on it all cyclinders were between 140 and 145 has great compression. Has a miss in it can't figure that out either. Any suggestions be very very glad to take them. Thank You.
