#334 of 472 Re: 97 GMC Jimmy has a bad miss [tommyj2] by judastouch Oct 09, 2008 (6:14 am)
Replying to: tommyj2 (Oct 08, 2008 7:16 pm) How's the inside of the distributor cap look? GMC issued a recall/repair on the distributors--the bottoms of the units themselves have little apertures covered with metal screens. (If memory serves, the apertures were to provide ventilation and the screens to keep road debris from getting into the distributor.) The screens trap moisture, which causes the inside of the cap to corrode, and causes misfiring similar to what you're describing.   If the inside of the cap is corroded, pull the distributor and yank out those screens.   Previous poster's question about fuel pressure is also a good one--check your fuel pressure.

Replying to: mwolf9000 (Oct 09, 2008 5:18 am) I had a similar problem with my 98 GMC Jimmy and after a while stop running all together it turned out to be the fuel pump inside the tank. Pump is about $280, Good luck

Hello,   The directional/cruise control signal arm on my 2000 Chevy Blazer fails to stay engaged when making a left turn. Any step-by-step help in replacing the arm would be greatly appreciated.   Thank you Replies to this message: dolphin1 (Oct 27, 2008 12:52 pm)

Replying to: badassken2004 (Oct 25, 2008 6:29 pm) I replaced the multifunction switch, but that didn't fix the problem. I replaced the turn signal flasher and the 4-way flasher and that worked. I haven't had any trouble since. Except now the back hatch light won't stay on when just the hatch is open. I hope this helped you.
#342 of 472 Chevy Blazer Elerctrical Problem by eustacem Nov 03, 2008 (7:27 pm)
Hi all, I have a 2000 Chevy Blazer that suddenly died one night without warning. It was already parked for about 4 hours, and when my wife attempted to start it, nothing happened. At first we thought it was a dead battery since the security light was flashing, but nothing else worked. When we turned on the head lights or blew the horn, the security light would die out. Even after charging up this battery, replacing it with a new one, checking all of the fuses (they were all good), even had two mechanics run a tester on it, there is absolutely NO power running through the system. Sometimes when the hood is open the hood light will come on but as soon as ANYTHING else is engaged it will die out. Any ideas? This is "driving" me nuts.

Replying to: eustacem (Nov 03, 2008 7:27 pm) It could be that your battery ground cable isn't working properly. You could check the connection at each end and possibly replace it.
