2000 Blazer, 80k miles. It doesnt like to start. It will just crank but not turn over, like the battery is weak (jumping it does not help). Then after a minute it will start to catch, RPM gauge will jump briefly, but then it stalls itself out like it is out of gas. Then I give up for 1/2 hour, go back and it starts right up after no more than 5-10 seconds. Then it runs (and re-starts) fine until it sits for another couple days.
This started 3 weeks ago, once the weather had dropped into the mid-30s and below.
I want to take it to be serviced, but dont know any trusted local mechanics and dont want to pay for "the works" if its just a spark plug or fuel filter issue.
