Do you have an aftermarket intake? If so, make sure nothing came loose, this was a similar problem I had when the clamp after the MAF came off. Any check engine lights?

Nope, just a K&N drop in filter and a tornador (to save on gas). Nothing was loose, ya that was the first thing I checked too. No check engine light though.

I have combined your two threads concerning the stalling problem so everybody can follow the steps you have taken to correct it. Keeping things together helps members help you.

I would suggest a factory GM dealership repair shop, rather than billy bob's fix it shack.

There is a reason they charge a lot of money per hour.

My guess is it's still in the fuel pump, have they run a pressure test on it?
Should also run the test right after it stalls. Could be a bad harness for the fuel pump, the in the tank wires should be changed with the pump along with the filter sock. Common short cut that costs in the end!

It's not a billy bob's fix it shack, it is a pretty good size dealership, Chrysler, Jeep, GM, etc...

That's possible although the Fuelpump was replaced about 30,000 miles ago. I called the Dealership this morning and let them know it's the same problem only this time it stalled while I was driving. Man this really stinks I really like the Blazer, but with this happening twice, I'm kind of half afraid to drive her.

i see no mention of dtc's. have they scanned for fault codes? does the MIL come on? sometimes this stalling and studdering can be caused by a faulty cam sensor it might be worth asking them.

Sounds like a Lemon Law candidate. Get your money back and find another Blazer. You shouldn't be worried about driving your own vehicle.

If you do keep it, go get AAA, the upgraded plan that will tow 100 miles.

I am fairly certain that warranties on used cars at dealers are only for 90 days, unless it is a recurring problem.
