I see... you want us to ascertain the problem over the Internet without you having to do anything more. Not likely. I'm out.

You will need to have your own scanner. Is the SES light on? What is the code number. Does it return after clearing?

If the scanner and IAC code takes us nowhere you will need to do compression testing and fuel pressure testing.

Both static and dynamic compression per this link. https://support.alldata.com/article/...pression-tests
Fuel pressure per this link. https://blazerforum.com/forum/2nd-ge...eakdown-88305/
You can get loaner compression tester and fuel pressure tester through local auto parts store as needed.

Let me know when you have an appropriate scan tool and are ready to begin.

Here's something strange, my post quoted immediately above from 7/5/20 4:14 is not assigned a number. Should have been #6 but it's not. Maybe you were never able to see it?

But sir i did follow what the kind guys suggested and some of the steps they suggested i already have done.
If there is anything extra to do i would do it i was just waiting for a feedback from one of you guys so i can proceed. Plus i don't recall you giving a "process" what you said translates into either listen to my mechanic and not waste ur time or listen to us and do a diagnostic with the question "what camp are you?"

So as far as i know i am here listening to you not the mechanic with no process i can follow to diagnose my car or fix it!

OK lets start again - please answer my 5 preliminary questions:

You will need a decent scan tool that will read Enhanced GM Powertrain PIDs. What are you using for a scan tool? I can recommend an appropriate inexpensive scan tool for Android or i-phone (about $35), but I need to know what year Blazer we are working on and what phone you have? You will need to have your own scanner. Is the SES light still on? What is the code number? Does it return immediately after clearing?

Mine is a1995 blazer so I need an obd1 and honestly i could not find a decent one!
As for the code i don't remember it sorry as in a mechanic shop where they were using their tool. And yes it returns after a long ride when the engine gets really warm.
Thank you
