What kind of problems does a Chevy Blazer have?
I have a 1974 Blazer with a 305 in it, I just replaced spark plugs, cap, rotor, wires, fuel filter, some hoses and PCV valve. It starts up strong, runs fine for a bit – drive it around the neighborhood – then once I come to a stop it basically dies on me, sometimes it will start right back up again – sometimes it will just crank and crank.
How does the fuel system work on a Chevy Blazer?
Fuel system has a test port on the metal line that requires a special valve to connect and then ckeck the pressure. 60psi min with key on engine off (start pressure) and 54psi running. If those check out then on to electrical/sensors/etc. Any SES light on and codes?

You can step on the gas and the engine just bogs it has absolutely no power . Put the car in neutral ( while still moving ) count to 3 and restart and have all the power you want.
Why does my GM 4.3L engine not start?
No Start Condition Basics There are three very basic components that the engine, in your GM vehicle, needs to start and they are: Air, Fuel and Spark. When your 4.3L, 5.0L or 5.7L GM vehicle cranks but does not start, it’s because one of these components is missing from the mix.

Where is the idle control valve on a Chevy Vortec?
The idle control valve sits on the throttle body and is responsible for adjusting the amount of air that enters the engine at idle, ultimately controlling engine idle speeds. At idle, the valve blocks a small amount of air from entering the engine, keeping idle RPM’s low.
Why are the Spider injectors leaking in the L35 engine?
The spider system uses a central pump with 6 tubes connected to it that lead to each of the 4.3L vortec cylinders. In the L35 and LF6 engines, the spider injectors are known to leak at the pressure regulator and at the supply and return lines due to a design fault.
What to do when your car stalls at idle?
Use a good safe cleaner and wipe the throttle body all inside as much as you can and open the throttle and clean as deep as you can and then while running a bit faster than idle spray cleaner into the other holes you may see where air will bypass the throttle plate. I believe this will cure your problem of stalling at idle.
