In the video above, we show you how to fix minor oil leaks in your 1997 Chevrolet Blazer. We will show you specifically how to determine if the fluid leaking from your Blazer is oil, check your oil level and fix the oil leak using stop leak. Extremely low oil levels can critically damage your engine, so it is important to be proactive about oil leaks, however small. Oil leaks in the 1997 Blazers with the 4.3 liter engine are often due to a bad seal in the drain plug - the metal washer in your drain plug can only be tightened a few times before it loses its ability to seal and should be replaced periodically to prevent leaking. Replacing the metal washer should only be done when you change the oil in your Blazer, fortunately the video above shows how to fix the minor leak in the interim.Fixing minor oil leaks is fairly straightforward, but first, make sure that your engine is cold and that your Blazer is parked on a level surface when you check the oil level as both of these things can cause the oil level to read low. Check our What is Leaking? video to see what type of fluid is leaking from your Blazer if you are unsure.

SPONSORED LINKS Do you have the same problem?YesNo Tuesday, November 18th, 2008 AT 9:17 PM Your engine needs oil to run, and even with frequent changes, its possible for debris and impurities to find their way into the lubrication system over time and wreak havoc. Thats where the oil filter comes in.Filters protect your engine from major damage and provide an easy point of maintenance that can extend the life of your vehicle by years if they receive proper attention. An oil filter leak can compromise these gains, but if you understand what causes a leak and how to avoid it, you can take steps to keep your engine in prime condition longer.How an Oil Filter FunctionsThe moving parts of an engine have very tight tolerances that need to be well-lubricated with clean oil to prevent excessive friction and heat as the engine runs. The cars oil pump pressurizes the engine oil, sending it through the oil filter, which traps any potentially damaging impurities before they can flow into the engine. The filter must be changed regularly — usually during an oil change — to avoid becoming clogged.The filter threads onto an oil filter housing on the engine. It has a hard but thin metallic exterior and a rubber gasket around the head that contacts the mating surface of the housing, ensuring a leak-tight seal that can handle the vibrations of normal operation.Sneaky LeaksThere are a few reasons why a filter might leak.When the oil in your vehicle is moving from one component to another, its under a lot of pressure. If the oil filter is installed too loosely, it can vibrate loose and allow oil to leak out. If its installed too tightly, the gasket could be damaged, leading to a leak.Leaks can also occur during an oil change if the gasket from the old filter sticks to the housing. When the new filter twists on, youve suddenly got two gaskets, which can leave you with a leak and, soon after, a burst. A new gasket could also bind, crimp or otherwise become unseated during installation.Beyond the gasket, you must make sure that the soft metal threads on the filters mouth arent damaged or screwed in incorrectly. Its also possible to have the wrong filter altogether, as many filters look similar but are specific to certain engines. Be sure to verify for compatibility.The filter housing on the engine can also be damaged, or the mating surface between filter and housing could be dirty enough to allow oil through. Finally, theres always the possibility of physical damage to the filter from impact.The FixThe best way to avoid leaks is to be proactive at the time of installation. When you remove old filters, ensure that the housing is free of debris and old gasket material so theres a clean mating surface. While youre there, inspect the new filter for dents, damaged threads, and cut or warped gaskets — and double-check that youre using the right filter number. Smear a light layer of oil around the gasket so it doesnt bind on installation, and carefully thread it onto the engine by hand, taking care not to overtighten. As always, refer to your manufacturers recommended torque for this piece. Finally, check the oil level and top off as needed.Its important to note that if you have a serious oil leak, you should stop the engine immediately and tow the car to a shop for repairs. If there are just a couple of drops and youd like to diagnose the issue yourself, start by cleaning the area so you can see where the leak first appears. This should help you identify the source quickly. As always, be sure to take proper safety precautions when youre working on a running or hot vehicle.Check out all the oil filters available on NAPA Online, or trust one of our 17,000 NAPA AutoCare locations for routine maintenance and repairs.
