I have a 1995 blazer and went to start it today, it tried starting up like normal but just wouldn't fire up. This leads me to believe that its not the battery (which is a few months old), i was guessing spark plugs or wires. Or fuel pump perhaps but was wondering if anyone has any other ideas. You never know what you might miss so anything will help
Thanks

The pumps are common so check fuel pressure with a gauge at the scrader. If you have the spider web injectors inside the intake manifold these go bad all the time. Check for spark using a spark tester. If you have a crank no start it has to be either fuel, air, or spark. Most common on these is a pump though.
