    Did you change out the ECM after changing the engine? The engine control module is proprietary to each individual motor.

Check the crank position sensor and the cam position sensors. When these go, they go without warning. Check for continuity across the connectors, should be less than 100 ohms.

SOURCE: 95 GMC Jimmy 4.3l W vin rough idle

My problem was solved when I repaired my 4 wd activation dash switch. The switch was contacting on 2WD & 4HI at the same time. The front differential activation is vacuum activated possibly creating a tug of war that didn't actually engage it but drained off vacuum from the engine? A theory at best but stumbbled across it because I knew the switch wasn't working properly I repaired it and low and behold rough idle disappeared and all is good for 3 weeks running.

Best do a fuel pressure test. Should have chg. fuel filter from the get go. The only other filter is on the end of the fuel pump in tank. Bad gas and dirty gas will plug up fuel filter, hense burn pump up.

SOURCE: 1999 GMC Suburban 350 wont run

Per your description, it sounds like you are missing an injector pulse from the ECM.
Check the under-hood fuse box and verify the "ECM1" fuse is good (12 volt supply to injectors).
With the key in the run position, verify you have 12 volts at an injector.
Barrow or purchase a "noid" light to verify you have an injector ground pulse from the ECM.
Let me know what you find and we can proceed from there.
Regards,

SOURCE: GM TBI low voltage at the injectors

sounds like a computer issue on the burb, but i would check the IAC(idle air control) valve and the TPS(throttle position sensor) first.
I would start with the IAC on the 93'.

SOURCE: Hi ,I have a chevy blazer s-10 1993 and she won't

Find the pressure test port (looks like a tire valve) on the fuel distribution rail over the injectors and place a can over the open end of the valve. Press the inner pin to release fuel into the can. If the pressure seems to fall rapidly, replace the fuel filter. Is the check engine light on? Rent a scanner, read any code(s), and pursue to repair(s). A bad crankshaft sensor or camshaft sensor can prevent the injectors from firing fuel into the engine.

1993 c1500 with 350 engine - runs rough right above idle

Ok first question. Did you install an AC Delco fuel pump? If not, change the pump. Other pumps do not maintain the pressure that is required by the system. You say you have installed a new disturber, insure you are time installed correctly. Rough running usually is a vacuum leak, usually you can find it by spraying cab. cleaner around the intake manifold and components. Hope it helps

If it has a Mass Airflow sensor unplug it and see how it runs. If it smoothes out that is the problem. I would also check for vacuum leaks the base of the throttle body is suspect, usually bad gasket

1993 chevrolet silverado 1500 will not start has new filter and pump can spray fuel in to it will start then dies when it runs out of the fuel sprayed it it

It sounds like your injectors are not firing which could be a crank signal problem or wiring,distributor pickup coil problem or a computer problem.One wire to your injector should be pink this is the power wire it should have around 11.5-12 volts with the key on. The other wire is ground that the computer uses to fire the injector which you can check with a good test light hooked to voltage. and work back from that point if you have neither at the injector.

We have a 1993 Chevy C1500 with a 5.7 that is dumping fuel at idle. We've put new injectors in it, new map sensor, O2 sensor, air control sensor, temp. sensor, new computer & chip, EGR sensor, Pickup...

something is creating alot of air to pass over the 02 sensor.


Low compression
Big vacuum leak.
Weak ignition
IAC stuck a little open.
TPS that is saying your foot is on the gas when it is not.
EGR stuck open a little.
Too low an idle
Weak spark plugs
Bad fuel pressure regulator
No vacuum to the fuel pressure regulator.
Bad coolant temp sensor.

What are the readings. Need to know the co and the hc reading in order to know if you have a misfire or an over fueling issue. All 5 reading are really needed to diagnose fuel related issues sight unseen

My 93 chevy 4.3 is dumping way to much fuel. I have changed module, o2 sensor,map,timing, temp sensor, and computer.truck runs good at idle but burns very rich and fowls plugs(7 mpg)

check to see if one of the injectors is pouring more gas than the other while idiling. if one of them is check the wires going to it to see if there is a short. if not the injector is probably junk.

I have a 1988 GMC Sierra 1500 thast wont stay running

Use a gage and check proper fuel pressure. With tbi fuel injection, the fuel pressure is 9--13 psi. I have seen fuel injector spray pattern that looked good to me, but, the fuel pressure was half of what it should have been. 5 psi may show a good spray pattern, but, it won't start and run a v8. In my opinion.
Any applicable trouble codes? Your obd1, you should be able to check some codes yourself, if there are any.
