Eight years ago I purchased my used 1995 Chev Blazer, it has 75,000 km and just off a two year lease. It now has 526,000 km and has given no trouble what so ever. I change the oil and filter every 5,000 km, this gives the life to any engine and I mean it. It runs smooth, if you watch what type of gas you put in it. At 500,000 km I treated it to a new set of spark plugs and wires. The old plugs were worn a bit but no sign of engine problems were indicated on the plugs. I have read that some think the 4.3 L engine is the worst thing ever invented. I guess I have the "one" that will give good performance for a long time to come yet, I hope. Perhaps those who do not have very good luck with their vehicles are the ones who abuse them.
