I just bought a '00 Trail Blazer. I have read about them and I read that it had a fan assis. cooling. It dont. I also read the left handle bar brake stopped all for wheels. It dont. Then they tell every one they are chain driven. When they are really BELT driven. Whats up?

1. Trail Boss not Trail Blazer has the fan assist cooling.
2. The final drive is chain(from trans to axle).The clutch is belt driven.
3. The handle bar lever does work all four wheels.If it doesn't take it back and tell them to fix it.

Not trying to be smart but did you not look at it before you purchased?I have a '00 Blazer and i love it.Happy motoring!

My 98 Trailboss manual mentions fan assist cooling but there isn't one. Dealer told me they used to have them but don't any more and the manual was not rewritten. Mines the older 250..dunno about the new 325.

The cooling fan might be an option.I have seen an older 250 with a four blade fan pointed at the head.Call your dealer and ask.

Did you not check all these thing out when you went to see the machine at the dealer? I do not understand why you are asking these questions after you brought it home?

jfreak,

The fan they refer to is part of the PVT system. Notice the big black clutch cover on the left side of your machine. Now, notice the pipe right above it. Follow it from the big black clutch cover to where it almost meets the engine. Start your Trailblazer up and feel the air coming out of it. If it is at least strong enough to push acorns out of the clutch cover (and it is) is should be strong enough to cool your engine.

The belt drive is part of the transmission. The Chain that goes from your transmission to you axle is the final drive.
