#119 of 326 1997 Chevy Blazer starting problem/heater problem by dm2785 Dec 29, 2007 (6:28 pm)
Replying to: steve_ (Dec 17, 2007 8:46 pm) I have 1997 Chevy Blazer with several little quirks. In October it died while I was driving, made a kind of loud humming sound and quit right there in the middle of the road. It started up just fine after a few minutes but had a hard time accererating uphill and acted like it wanted to quit, be we made it home. After taking it to a mechanic we replaced to o2 sesor and it has run fine until a few days ago.   We have had problems with the heater only working when it wants to also. It quits working with no warning and next day works just fine.   The latest issue is a problem starting. It quit in the middle of the parking lot a few days ago. I was able to restart it after a few attempts and it drove fine. The next day it wouldn't start. I let it sit there untill today when I went out and got it to start after messing with it a few times. I turned the key to see if I could hear the fuel pump kicking on and I heard nothing. I then tried to start it to see what would happen and of course nothing just that noise a car makes when it's struggling to start. After that noise went away I heard the fuel pump kick on. I pulled the key out, put it back in, and tried to start it and it started! It's like theres a delay in the fuel pump kicking in. Help me please...the words fuel pump sound expensive, is this just an electrical problem? Thanks! Replies to this message: debbie711 (Jan 31, 2008 8:30 am)

Replying to: debbie711 (Jan 08, 2008 3:10 am) I am having similar problems. Mine is #3109. Have spent a total of $250 in parts and $265 in labor. This started only after having a tune-up in September. But mine won't start with a jump. It will only start when it's finally had it's "hissy fit".   I've had 2 fuel pimps in the past 3 yrs, the last one being in July, but there is fuel going thru.

#126 of 326 '92 K-5 crank problem by igmaam Jan 27, 2008 (1:53 pm)
My blazer will start with no problems, but when I shut if off after travelling four or five miles, it will not start again. It cranks a little, but shows signs of a dead battery. If I just leave it for fifteen or twenty minutes, sometimes less, it turns over fine, like it just needed to catch its breath. It is a completely stock truck, no mods. Has classic hot exhaust by starter, no headers. Have replaced starter twice, works okay for a while, then problem returns. The battery is supposed to be good. It can be jump started, but I'd like to fix the problem. Any ideas? I've been stranded at the grocery store, dog park, and post office.

Replying to: igmaam (Jan 27, 2008 1:53 pm) Does it have the heat shield in place? Sounds like a classic case of heat getting to the starter. Replies to this message: igmaam (Jan 28, 2008 7:35 pm)

Replying to: jlflemmons (Jan 28, 2008 6:11 pm) We thought of that, but didn't think would apply since the blazer doesn't have headers. We'll have to take a look underneath, thanks for the suggestion.
