Re: 96 chevy blazer overheating

Go to Advanced Auto or Auto Zone and get a loaner pressure tester.
Put this on the radiator pump up to around 10 or 12 psi. Look for leaks if any are found repair. Then with the pressure on the system start and run the vehicle if the pressure gauge pulsates it indicates a blown head gasket. Depending on the water you have you may also need a new radiator.
