Seven problems related to fuel injection have been reported for the 1997 Chevrolet Blazer. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The check engine light illuminated. The consumer took the vehicle to a mechanic to have it checked and it was discovered, that the fuel injection system was leaking fuel onto the control module. Fuel wicking to top of the motor and to the power train control module set on top of the right side wheel well causinga fire hazard.
While driving could feel vibration from the front and slowdown. Technician had said that it was caused by fuel injection failure.
Besides the fuel injection system going out of this vehicle there is something called a barring in the heater and air thing that we need fixed. When we run the heat or the air the car gets really loud. My mechanic called johny morris and they said that they have had tons of Blazers brought back to be fixed because of the fuel injectors. What I want to know is, if there is so many being brought back to be fixed why doesn't Chevrolet do a recall on the fuel injectors? its not like its a cheap part to fix. I bought this Blazer as is with no warranty but you wouldn't think that something this major would go wrong when the vehicle is only 2 yrs old.
Fuel injector failed causing fuel to fill wiring harness and caused damage to computer. Nm.
Fuel injectors fail every 3,000 miles. They are constantly being replaced and cleaned. I have taken the truck to the original dealership which is 55 miles away from me. The gas gauge does not work and indicates the incorrect amount of fuel. The indicator fluctuates from full to empty as the truck is being driven. My case number with Chevrolet is #990453585.
Fuel injectors failed.
Vehicle has poor driving performance due to defective fuel injection system. Dealer has inspected vehicle.
