Question:
95 Chevy Blazer has cut off on me twice. First time they said the ignition module they put in had went bad. Car drove good for a month and now it has shut off again. Same symptoms. Shuts off and you can't get it to start. Are they missing something else or are they just getting bad parts?

what is good general flow rate for shielding gas when mig welding?
…and scroll down below the chart you see.
Read the discussion regarding the procedure for retrieving diagnostic codes. It is simple, and only requires a paperclip.
If you haven't disconnected the battery, the code(s) stored will relate to the issue of dying.
With the code(s) in hand, refer to the chart for direction concerning the diagnostics.
You MAY be able to repair this yourself, or at least your conversation with the repair shop will certainly be more informed!
Good Luck and Merry Christmas

Most ignition modules can't handle the intense heat that is generate from the engine, and the amount of power having go thru it constantly. Is a desgin flaw, on allot of cars/trucks.What should I check for or suspect when check engine light come on?
Yes, change the Inline Fuse to a higher Amperge Raeting, its kind of a gekky fix, but you either cause more resistance to stop it from Heating, (different Gauge Wire and a different In Line Fuse) or change the Ignition Module to a more fault tolerant one.A mechanic offered me $200 for my totaled car, is it worth it?
heat, vibration, cheap part or when they are replacing it they are making abetter connection ,wiggle the plug going into the moduleSounds like you got one of those "I think" "mechaniks" I would guess it wasn't the ign. mod. to begin with. Your vehicle probably has obd2, did your "mechanik" scan for trouble codes ?? If not you better find you a new one before changing any more parts. How many times does any one get bad parts ?? I have replaced many and had a killer when I got a set of plug wires and one wire was defective. This bad part, cheap part don't fly. There are many obd sensors that could cause this problem and I bet a new ign. mod. will do exactly the same thing again. And thats just the way it is
