1998 Blazer Specifications
I discovered that an advanced Google search for "1998 Blazer" at the site "media.gm.com" returns all kinds of useful info. For instance, I didn't know that the compression ratio of the 4.3 is 9.2:1. And that the step bumper trailer hitch is rated at 3,500 lbs.
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&a...i=&safe=images Did you know that the 4X4 is only rated at 14 mpg city? |

Re: 1998 Blazer Specifications
yeah...I get about 15mpg mixed driving and it SUCKS!!! I just threw a ball on the bumper since it is rated for up to 3500lbs and I doubt I'll be towing anything even close to 1000lbs with it!

Re: 1998 Blazer Specifications
Thanks for the link.
I know that 2wd's always get better mpg that 4wd's, but I have a 98 and my grandparents have a 98 4dr 4wd and theirs gets terrible mpg than mine. I get between 21.5 and 23 believe it or not. |

Re: 1998 Blazer Specifications
Sad part is my old 91 Blazer 4 door 4x4 with almost 200K on it got better mileage than my 98 does! It would get 16-18 regularly. I got 18 once with my 98 all highway. City/rural I get 14-15. I couldn't find a 2wd 4 door here in MI and didn't have time/money to travel to another state to get one.
