Does it have spark? Just changing the plugs and cap and rotor doesnt mean it sparked to begin with...? Pull off a plug wire, stick a screwdriver into it, and put it near some steel in your engine bay while someone else cranks it. Just make sure you are touching the handle not the metal shaft or you are going to have a hard time making a fist that day... You will see the spark jumping from the screwdriver to the metal.

Welcome to my world, Ive got about 500 bucks in new and used stuff into a blazer I drove home last week, and we cant get it to start now. It died on me and I had to tow it home half a mile the other day. Before that it was stalling and having no throttle response occasionaly, but was drivable. I have no engine codes, no strange lights...? Im baffled.

well i will say this from expirence, it sounds ALOT like the spider is bad, inside the intake its not cheap, and i wouldnt just take the black thing off and check for puddles of gas, because mine actually stopped working, it didnt leak just wouldnt pump the gas, pepboys has them for $250 you can put one in and give it a try, if it dont work just return it.

I would try a used spider first though. I got one at the parts yard for 10 bucks. Cleaned it up, and keeping it for a spare in case its needed. The new one sold for 800 bucks at Lordco...
