Blazer wont stay running..........

[hi pinion]

Ok, in the morning, when my wife started up the blazer,it stayed going good for around 5 muimutes and then deid.And then after that, every time after she tried to start it, it died. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif But it ran real good at first. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gifI havent went out to check it yet but i wan wondering what could this be? I havent changed the fuel filter in a while BTW. /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

SOunds like either the fuel pump or filter. You can either replace both (not too expensive) or 1 at a time. I'd go with the filter first. Cheaper and less work

Like I said on the phone...check in order.
1. choke staying shut.
2 fuel filter.
3.Check fuel pressure pre filter.
