    @@Huannt58 hey man, not sure if you got help with this, but this is an in-tank fuel pump issue, there is a check valve that stops fuel from going back to the tank, and when it sits, all the fuel runs back to the tank and the fuel pump has to bring it all the way to the motor. So it sounds like youd need a new fuel pump and filter while you're at it.

    just check trims at idle, low single digits, negative and positive numbers.. two banks.(these engines are smart as heck, dual trim). look for the occasional 9-10 trim while it is skipping, this verifies one bad injector. 20 would be two, most likely stall then. I killed one with weld smoke (long story - open fuel filler tube in the smoke) I do not like the wires in vacuum, but it is up to you. I stayed original poppets, just new. two ways to kill these, this video has stuff that was simply old ready to replace. Mine was fairly new, and i killed one by other means. Replaced the whole set.

Isn't this making it a more multiport injection system, and should give more power and get better gas mileage, as far as being more efficient. I get horrible mileage!

I see these new retrofit injectors that get rid of poppets and are 36lbs. But they are like $600!!! I want to mod a junkyard spider system thats in good shape to be able to perform at 36lbs and rid the poppet style to the new improved spider setup. What do I need to do and where do I go to learn the mod?

    You can test both the check valve and spider injector by removing the upper manifold , reattaching the metal lines then feeding 50 to 60 psi air into them with a gauge attached. If it loses pressure on the spider side the regulator is bad , if you hear air rushing into in the gas tank side the check valve is bad . The new style injector is improved but the push in tabs are one time use and cost as much as $5 each , in short don't try and remove it once it's installed .

    It would most likely cause codes to set off, but they would be errors as a result of a faulty injector harness. Maybe a particular cylinder or two that are misfiring. Maybe random multiple cylinder misfire. For a faulty pressure regulator, you can hookup a gauge to the access port against the firewall, and you can see the pressure decrease rate. A faulty injector harness usually also results in surging rpm, stumble on acceleration, maybe a gas smell from exhaust or high numbers of long and short term fuel trims. I ended up getting an O2 sensor code bc my faulty injector harness ran for so long with a rich fuel ratio it burned out the sensor early.

    ​@@backwoodzcustomz1549 Nice vid guys. I heard from a very experienced GM guy that you should only use AC Delco and not to go to AZone or Oreillys or get aftermarket, but get it from Advance Auto as they have a supplier that orders Ac Delco direct. Cost dif is about 200.00. Appreciate any info. Yeah, it's nice they got rid of poppet set up. Those vales are notorious for failing. My 99 Yukon has 203K on it and after a tune up it's still misfiring with no codes. Thanks for any help!

    @@freedomkeeper8003 i mean, ac delco is no longer an oem supplier for gm... They seperated many years back. You need to figure out if its an ignition or fuel missfire.. Also could have coolant leaking in the cylinder... I use nothing but the cheapest china parts i can find.. I have lityle to no issues... There is only like 5 manufactures of autoparts.. Most are just relabled boxes...

    UPDATE: Problem solved! I opened the hood in the dark, saw arcing plug wires in three places. Replaced wires and no more misfire. Got wires from Summit Racing. Used 8mm, sprial wound core and 270 ohm. Great price too.

    Duran mas y se pueden reemplazar individualmente si uno se daña aparté de que son mas baratos que comprar toda la araña.

    * 8:29 DO NOT USE VASELINE!!! I'm no mechanic, I can work on my own shit, but I wouldn't call myself a mechanic, however, what I am is a maintenance technician. And after eons of experience, I can assure you, vaseline sounds like a good idea, however, it will eventually break down rubber.. so. I'd suggest plumbers grease. Danco brand is the best. Comes in a small squeeze tube.. I use that shit for everything!!! Just saying.. carry on!!
