Well FOR THE FIRST PROBLEM YOU PROBABLY NEED TO REPLACE THE THERMOSTAT IT IS MORE THAN LIKELY CLOSED SHUT NOT LETTING COOLANT INTO THE BLOCK TO CIRCULATE THE HEATED COOLANT 2ND THE UNIT IN WHICH CONTROLS THE TEMPERATURE OF THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE IS OR MAY BE BAD I WOULD START WITH THE THERMOSTAT FIRST BEING THIS IS USUALLY A MORE COST AFFECTIVE SOLUTION GOOD LUCK!
Will a 97 blazer rear end fit in a 98 blazer
As long as the trim and model is the same I don't see why not. I assume you're talking about what used to be called the S-10. There's only been 2 real generations of the blazer which changed in 94. There were a few cosmetic changes between the 97 and 98 but all in all it's the same vehicle.
The security light is on my 1998 chevy blazer after i installed a fuel pump after i dropped the tank
You are most likely experiencing a failed or failing Antitheft security system. Gm has had issues with this system since they first installed them in the early 80's. Low voltage, a dead battery, or time can trigger the failure on these systems. Contrary to what others may tell you, this system CAN be bypassed and eliminated. People will tell you that it is impossible, or even worse, Illigal. This is simply not true. It is your vehicle and you can do whatever you want to your vehicle. This site has a lot of information and can help you beat this problem yourself for far less than the $1000 dealer quote.

I have a 98 blazer 4wd emergency lights switch
If you purchase the complete multifunction switch to repair, you will need to disassemble the column covers and steering wheel to access the screws. If you purchase just the hazard switch (sometimes available from GM), just remove the upper cover and use a pocket screwdriver down the side to release the lock tab. Then insert the new switch and reinstall the cover.
I have a 98 chevy blazer 4wd the emergency lights
it's not hard, but you could set off the air bag. disconnect the battery, pump the brake a couple times to remove any stray voltage, then remove the steering wheel to access the switch. or you could (by hand) twist a drywall screw into the broken switch and shut it off that way.still broken but no longer active
I have a 98 blazer battery light came on and amp
With GM cars in general, I have found it is best to change the battery and alternator both out together. If one is weak it will take out the other in no time. These parts are both dirt cheap at a junkyard. Believe it or not, a junkyard delco alternator or battery is much better than a duro=last silver rebuilt in mexico.
You may also still have wiring problems remaining from the previous failure. GM dummy lights and gauges are notorious for being inaccurate, to the point that they hardly even function. At least rig up a volt meter that you can keep an eye on while driving, for a few days, to verify your alternator is actually outputting the right voltage.
My 1998 chevy blazer died going down the highway, what is wrong?
Multiple possibilities. Will start with easiest/cheapest. You don't mention check engine light (that would give codes), so I'll go with the same issue we've had with newer Blazers. That would be the ECM in the distributor. When ours started going bad, it would cut-off intermittently. Well one day the intermittent was terminal. Anew ECM, for the 2.8 V6 (1987) is approx 45.00. You would have to price it for your vehicle based on year and engine size. The worst case scenario is loss of timing gear. (That happened on our 67 Buick with 300 V8). Another thought is what happened to a friend. He's putzing on down the highway when his 88 Pontiac Grand Am simply quit. His computer had bit the big one. Those are the only things that come to mind, other than running out of gas or your alternator had quit charging your battery and the battery finally lost enough power to spark the plugs.
98 blazer starts but will not stay running
wow a oldie but a goodie well first things first , due to it's age your gonna have to give a good look over to whats under the hood for maybe a possible broken or cracked hose or fitting pay particular attn to vac lines that run here and there , second your gonna need to know your fuel pressure this is measureable with a fuel pressure gauge on the fuel rail just before it enters the throttle body (where air enters engine) and last but not least your going to need to know it is a ign system fault that shutting it off, this can be measured by cking for voltage with a timing light at distributor primary wire (this has got a HEI distributor so coil is on top of distribuor ) or a real simple way is to start it at night (no lights) and look real close into engine area (don't reach your hands in) for Blue sparks if you see any there's your problem
