Anthony, aftermarket distributor caps have a design flaw for our particular engine. That info is hard to find on the net, but I chased this problem for months. Try using an AC Delco brand cap and check back. Your contacts under the cap probably have traces of green on them which will appear when moisture gets in there.

It could be the distributor cap is not sitting correctly, lay a piece of sandpaper down on a flat surface and place the cap on top and rub it round a few times, this should help it seat better, only other thing i can think is the icm might have a crack in it and damp is getting in this will stop a spark being made. if it is you can clean the crack and fill with liquid bonding glue, dont matter what type just leave it to dry for 12 hours and keep filling with the glue till its spelled the crack, when dry it should work fine in all weather.

SOURCE: 1999 chevy blazer has trouble starting from a cold crank

If your engine is cranking really strong make sure you have proper engine timing. If your engine is having a hard time cranking like its cranking really slow. You probably need to check your battery.

you have to remove the distributor, fuel lines, all electrical connections. remove the bolts (carefully, so not to break them), and the intake should come off. you may have to stick a screw driver between the intake and the block but be careful not to mark up the mating surfaces.

SOURCE: my friend had a distributor,cap,rotor replace on

Hi, if the car runs fine and the engine light is not on, I doubt there is a problem with the computer. Does the mechanic have an explanation for saying it needs a computer?

1999 chevy blazer not starting

Check the plug wire from the ignition coil to the distributor cap.
If you haven't already, replace the distributor cap and rotor.
The GM Vortec's have issues with moisture getting inside the cap and rotor and causing problems.

5 years ago for cap & rotor???? It sounds like it's in dire need of a complete tune up - plugs. wires, cap, rotor, all fluids & filters ESPECIALLY fuel filter. I'd start there and run a good fuel system cleaner through it. Do your tune ups more frequently like every 30K - not wait 5 years!

Changed spark plugs in my 1999 chevy blazer and it wont crank over. Gapped the plugs to specs...should I've also changed the wires, cap & rotor also?

When you go to an auto store and they give sell you spark plugs they should already be gapped to spec. There is no need to adjust the gap. This may be the reason your car will not start. I would try new spark plugs first then wires. Since the vehicle is a 99 it probably could use a tune up (spark plugs, wires, coils, cap, rotor, chassis lube, and transmission fluid check and flush if needed). Also make sure that the engine block ground strap is in good condition and that there is no corrosion covering the ends of the ground strap. The ground strap is typically located near the firewall and is directly attached from the engine block to the frame of the car.

94 Chevy s10 lopes @ idle

cap, rotor and set of wires would be a good start. Why not add a set of good plugs while working. Then you've got a good basic tune up! Then, if you still have a problem at least you have a good baseline to work from!
