95 s 10 4.3 TBI rough idle misfiring

Pumping a fuel injected car has no effect on the starting process. This sounds like the fuel pressure is low or the injectors are having problems. The injectors could be having trouble from sensors that tell them when to open.

1987 chevy with Throttle Body... You literally have to put it to the floor to get it to start, then it'll run nice for a while thinking it'll run take it for a drive and it will shortly die on

Check all fuel lines for leaks, make sure it doesn't have bad gas in it. Listen for fuel pump when key is turned on. Change fuel filter. See if that's helps.

leaky injector/s is flooding motor, mechanically clean or replace. And clean throttle body while you are at it with spray cleaner. Should be almost spotless where large throttle valve opens and closes.

Will turn over but not start put a new fuel pump in it if you poor gas in to the throttle body it will start for a min until gas runs out

I had the same problem with my old 1987 Chevy blazer s10. The problem was the ground wire of the fuel tank was rusty and it broke. So simple was the problem. But before that, I checked and change the fuses, the fuel filter, the oil pressure switch (this is related to the fuel pump to) and finely when a was ganging the fuel pump saw that the ground wire was broken or damage.


I hope this can help you.

That eliminates the crankshaft and camshaft position sensors. Have you checked the fuel injector itself for an open winding or stuck valve plunger? There should not be a steady 12 volts to the injector--if good injector, it would be spraying fuel steadily into the throttle body. But at least the engine should try to run if poorly. Take the injector out, dry it off with air, and intermittently apply 12 volts to one terminal while grounding the other. You should hear a click from inside every time you touch 12 volts. If not, replace it. If it does, it may be plugged with debris. Try blowing through it in reverse with compressed air.

Check the injector for 12v on one wire. if good check the other wire for a ground witth the key on. The ground wire pulses from the ECM If you dont have 12v from one wire to the other but you have 12v from one wire to battery ground then be sure the ground wire is good to the computer. If you don't have 12 v at any time check for open hot wire or bad fuse. ADD 12v to the hot wire at the injector. DO NOT add to the wrong wire or you will fry the computer
