I used to have a 2000 ZR2 blazer.. it was badass.. the ZR2 blazers came with a stock 3 inch lift and 31 inch tires and the whole undercarriage was protected against offroad hazards... it had a 4.3 vortec V6 that made 192hp and it would go damn near anywhere in the hills
I've replaced a Fuel Injection system on my 99 Chevy Blazer to a Second Generation Fuel Injection system last year and it runs better than the First Generation Fuel Injection system which was injection poppet type, the poppet type was like a mechanical type , the new version have individual injectors Direct into the ports where the poppets used to sit on , runs great and consumes a little less fuel , yet it responds quicker, just thought I put this out there ☺😀
@@stunt- Hi, I'm happy for you, I also past state inspection two weeks ago, the injectors I have are exactly like the one's you'd see on many cars today, electronics not cheap plastic mechanical, my Injectors still working perfectly well.
I don't know if it's just me but, I just don't like most of the SUVs and even some cars today. I always look at the older ones. I liked when the SUVs had the transmission on the steering wheel. I don't like push start and not having a CD player on the dash (at least where it would be optional instead of hooking up to play).
i am from indonesia. my parent had one when i was 8 year old. the indonesian version 1996 opel blazer with holden 2.2 L engine manual transmission. bought from my grandparent in 1999. its great car...
@saabkyle04 it gets 15 in city 18 on highway but treat it good and put cold air intake on it and it will hit 23mpg highway and 20 city that engine is cleannn
She is pretty, hope its still taken care of. Just would like to add that its not good to scrub the tires at a stand still, and its hard on the power steering
Had a silver one like this. It ran good but it just rotted out all underneath and around the wheel well. Pittsburgh kills older cars from all the salt during the winter
My 98 Blazer Exactly like this model, does NOT have a Cd player but i upgraded to JL Audio speakers and kenworth deck. Great for up here in canada. i got some 20's on mine but i took off the green paint i didn't like it so i painted i all black.
My personal best so far has been 22.25 mpg, more highway than city. Have not taken it on a dedicated highway run. True stop & go city - 17.5 mpg. If I can spread out the stops some, I've achieved 20 mpg city. Automatic transmission, 4 door.
I have a 97 blazer with 230000 miles on it and fires right up no matter what temperature outside the color is green with no problems but the AC but I don't care
@josh666675 you cant beat the 4x4 blazer, i have never been stuck, it was a dream in the snow even in 2wd! i only used 4wd in the snow to pull someone out.
hey, great vid, the Blazer in this vid is 1998? right? one of my bud's has a 1998 Blazer that's red, and had the last time i chekced, 132,569 miles. cool :-)
@Polishpimp69 I have a 1999, fully loaded. It gets 14 mpg city driving and 18 highway. it's a gas guzzler. i bought it 3 years ago w/ 54k miles on it. it's very sluggish on acceleration. but if you do find one in excellent to very good condition like mine and take care of it...then the car should last long. It's excellent in snow when you engage the 4x4.
@xLAKERBOY101x I have a 01 Blazer as a first car and it's not too bad on gas in my opinion. On 3/4 tank full of gas it'll easily last a little more than a week.
@watso64 I agree. I bought mine from a private seller and just can't pass up a good deal on a very good condition car. Power everything, sunroof, tow package, low miles & lo-jack. I maintain the car meticulously which should last me another good 10 years. However, it sucks when a base Rav-4 w/ 179HP can kick my blazer's a@$.
@slipknot11080 OH man forreal mines 2wd only and I have gone threw some areas with almost bald tires where a 4wd explorer got stuck hahaha shows chevy is better than a ford :P
I bought a '97 2WD for $1000 last Nov. 205k mi. Runs like a top. I look at this video & think my dash looks better. I don't like the passenger grab handle & the column shift of the '98.
are these good trucks becuase my brothers getting a job at a dealer ship and i get his jeep im gonna trade in for a pickup truck or a blazer i really want a 4x4 blazer
I was talking to a bloke with a right hand drive model blazer with the v6 (base model) here in England, I was surprised at its size, I expected it to be a lot bigger but its about same size as a jeep cherokee; I like them. Did they do a v8 diesel model? 6.5td?
I have my 99 blazer in perfect clean running condition. 120K miles. Has a K&N air filter also.
98 blazer 4door sadly non 4wd but perfect clean running condition almost at 140k miles
Drove one of these today. Now I'm in love.
My very first used car! Can’t wait to drive it this weekend
Mice truck take care of it...

Had the same color and category!!!
Bought brand new in 99 , sold it scrapped in 2010
A really comfortable car!

Thank you for this information, I have a stock 98 blazer that runs great, has a little under 150k miles, bought it for $2k. Been the best little truck

My 98 blazer that I had for 23 years was totaled.I am heart broken.
I just got mine today!!
this is my first car and I love it! :)
I love blazers too
I do happen to have a white version of this Blazer with a black-grey interior. It's suited us greatly in the winter.
With proper maintenence - at 100,000 miles - that Blazer is just getting broke in!!!!!!!!!!!
+Jeff Schwartz Not if rust has set in, it will get broke all right.
True mine is at 255k miles and mine is in worse condition
Mines is great 230k miles
Haha
i love that door ding, my uncle's truck has the same one, u already knew that :-)
I have a 1995 GMC Jimmy 4.3 4x4 that has 216,956 miles on it, all original too!!
these model year blazers only had the 4.3 v6....its a bulletproof engine
My blazer has 230k 😂 starts like new
My has 230k 2.. Runs great
awesome honda mine has 245,000. Never had an issue so far. Great truck !
Just bought one with 145000 miles for 900 bucks! Only issue is power steering gear box and oil leak
I'm here to say mine is at 300k and still runs like a beast 😂
@@Ryanharrison69 4.3 are great
i am from indonesia. my parent had one when i was 8 year old. the indonesian version 1996 opel blazer with holden 2.2 L engine manual transmission. bought from my grandparent in 1999. its great car...
Your parents had an Opel frontera.
Not the same as this. A 2.2L is pretty underpowered compared to this 4.3L.
The one thing I hate about the Blazers/Jimmys is that the cooling fan is super loud. Its sometimes louder than the actual engine
I have a red LS 98 blazer and I'm at 185,103
and still no problems, best car ever!!!
Own a 1997 blazer in green with 220000 miles and still runs good
These Blazers last ,if you do your regular maintaince.I've owned a 96 and now a 98.
So right
@saabkyle04 it gets 15 in city 18 on highway but treat it good and put cold air intake on it and it will hit 23mpg highway and 20 city that engine is cleannn
4 people drive Ford Exploder's and wish they had this awesome vehicle.
Why did you buy a 2nd Gen Ford Explorer then?
Found a blazer online and bought it yesterday. Its a really nice car a mini suv.
wow! that engine Roars like a lion at 2:54!
She is pretty, hope its still taken care of. Just would like to add that its not good to scrub the tires at a stand still, and its hard on the power steering

not bad, 1998 with 114k on it, mine is a 2001 with 189k on it with a fuel issue
Here in Colombia 🇨🇴 you can't do that - leave the cam over there while it's recording 😄
tks for posting - i LOVE my 99 :) 2 dr 2WD w/5-speed, sunroof , Flowmaster dual ex., K&N, Bilsteins, Yokohama 60's etc only 68000 mi. keep her 4eva!
My 98 Blazer Exactly like this model, does NOT have a Cd player but i upgraded to JL Audio speakers and kenworth deck. Great for up here in canada. i got some 20's on mine but i took off the green paint i didn't like it so i painted i all black.

THIS is a Blazer. Not that pathetic minivan they make today
just bought one of these exact same color to lol
How much?
I have a '99 Blazer with 121,000 miles.
Man i am jealous. I hve a 2000 with 230k miles. Runs great
My blazer has 338 and going good
I have a 97 blazer with 230000 miles on it and fires right up no matter what temperature outside the color is green with no problems but the AC but I don't care
My blazer was doing great and than just quite
@josh666675 you cant beat the 4x4 blazer, i have never been stuck, it was a dream in the snow even in 2wd! i only used 4wd in the snow to pull someone out.
My grandfather used to have one before he traded it in for a Dodge Intrepid.
@Polishpimp69 my dad has one it gets 22 mpg in city 25 on highway very comfortable ride.
Nice truck!
i have a
99 jimmy with 253000 still running strong
My friend's blazer has about 105k on it. Barely starts up. But you can expect that from a family that doesn't take care of a car.
yupp they do i have one also but my engine needs repair n it only has 100,528 miles on i but its a easy fix hopefully
Gas wise??...Nope it's a V6. But they are awesome multipurpose vehicles, They handle great in the snow. My dad had one in white loved that truck.
love this

cuz the V6 pulls these babys nicely. A V8 would be too much.
That one even had the 4x4 wooo
magnificent by rick ross playing in car
no way bro, how??
i have a 2001 chevy blazer LT 4x4, and it get about 15, max, lol, but it is seriously reliable
@xLAKERBOY101x I have a 01 Blazer as a first car and it's not too bad on gas in my opinion. On 3/4 tank full of gas it'll easily last a little more than a week.
Check your tire pressure, if one tire is a bit low on the left then it will pull :)
Vortec V6... The only V6 to satisfy me.
best car, ass I ever had
nice peel out at 3:50

I since found out they did this shape with the 6.5 diesel, few videos on youtube.
thanks
The blazer is surprisingly quiet
nice shape for a 98 and that many miles i be you could rack up another 200,000 on it!!
I got the same floor carpet too lol
more dealership start-ups please!
these cars last forever
I was thinking of purchasing one of these. Fully loaded with a lift and huge tires. But the axle may be broken. Idk if I should or not
have a fully loaded 1999 blazer 4x4 with 192000 miles and it turn on in one turn
oh wow
same with mine
@saabkyle04 it gets 15 in city 18 on highway but treat it good and put cold air intake on it and it will hit 23mpg highway and 20 city
does this blazer have the automatic lights? my uncles truck has the auto lights, cool :-0
Looks like it needs motor mounts.
looks like mine, except mine is a 1999 !
Nice!
Anyone else look this up after reading that one comment about some guys laugh?
Would a 97 chevy blazer be a good first car?
BabyboogerGaming hell yea
Go for a 98 and above instead. 97s are outdated on the interior but the good thing is they don't have the spider on the engine like the 98s and above.
@@Jakeshell12034454 they r greattttttt
are these good trucks becuase my brothers getting a job at a dealer ship and i get his jeep im gonna trade in for a pickup truck or a blazer i really want a 4x4 blazer
how much u guys asking for the Blazer? i want one for my first car :-0
Spinning tires there for a moment
Funny how he cut the video when the engine started to squeek

@SuperJesse2009 even the 97 model has a cd player
@saabkyle04 i have a Olds bravada (same car different trim) and it gets about 14 and a half miles to a gallon
the 1991 Toyota Celica was traded in for this
any mods to your engine? i heard that if you throw in a airfilter or upgrade the computer you can get an extra 2 miles per gallon.
Dunkin Belmont St Brockton bus.
@saabkyle04 if its the vortec v6, mid twenties.
