Stalls about every half a mile. Going on about 1 1/2 weeks. Done quite a bit of research turning up many complaints about fuel pumps and egr valves. I don't have money for rebuilding my engine so I'd like to find out if there has been confirmed answer as to why these blazers are stalling.

Egr valve makes car surge and die almost every year and we have to pay several hundred to change it out each time. ($50+ just to get the car checked by them so they can tell me its a code 32-bad egr then 2-3 hundred for part and labor). Of course I stopped using the dealerships and went to a small business mechanic and cut $100 off that. The other problem is the fuel pump has given out twice but my son has fixed it each time for me.

Replaced spider injector once, replaced egr valve 4 times, replaced both exhaust manifolds. The service rep told me the egr valve replacement is a very common problem. I checked with a dealer and apparently there is no recall on the spider injector nor egr valves which to me is a very dangerous situation when driving and the motor starts surging and dying.
