My wife's 2000 Blazer had a similar problem, turned out to be the ignition switch. However, a bad ignition switch wouldn't explain the power seat problem. That sounds more like a problem with the battery buss. The problem with our bad ignition switch had these symptoms: Every few weeks, the car wouldn't start, although it would crank fine and act like it wanted to start. If you gave it a snort of starting fluid, it would start right up. but you had to keep giving it starting fluid for it to keep running. If you left the car alone for about 15 minutes, it would start and run. It turns out this was caused by an antitheft device. The faulty ignition switch was causing the computer to think that someone was using the wrong key in the ignition. The anti-theft system kills the fuel pump for about ten minutes, then lets you try again. By the way, pumping the accelerator pedal doesn't do anything on a fuel-injected engine. There's no accelerator pump to "pump".
