Chevy Astro CPI Fuel Injector Install Part 1 

This is a public service (granted for the Chevy owning public:-) Thank you so much for taking the time to make and post. I just banged out mine yesterday and could not have done it without this.

Thanks a lot! I just got a chev blazer, and it took me forever to find the fuel lines under the hood.. I appreciate it!

@blowme42069 All parts came from rockauto com Just do a part number search with the numbers below. The prices have gone up since I posted this. GB REMANUFACTURING"mail your injector out" Part # 83322101 $147.29 or STANDARD MOTOR PRODUCTS Part # FJ226R $209.79 both with the core charge.(injector with regulator) DORMAN Part # 55163 $31.79. (line kit)

Thanks for the video. Really helpful.

i did this to my 95 gmc jimmy was a moderate job great video man

Just FYI the injector unit from US auto parts remanufactured by GB (same as yours) is $123.76 and the fuel line kit is $41.25. with tax it's about the same as what you paid a few years ago.

Tengo una Chevy Astro van del 97 y tiene un temblequeo en el motor que se quiere Apagar en Baja le puse lo repare los cables la tapa del inicio y rotor y sigue igual que será ayúdame por favor

@sebaelcordobe83 Check your fuel pump relay, and injector harness. If your van just called it quits with little or no notice, you may have a electrical issue. I don't think that all you your injectors would clogged at once, but one at a time over a period of time could and does happen. More than two clogged injectors at a time would make the van very hard to drive if you could get it running.

The first symptom was the smell of raw fuel out of the tail pipe after the van rested for a while. (like six or more hours) The next indication was the engine loading up or chugging under acceleration after setting overnight.

Thanks, I am glad that the video was helpful.

94 AWD with cpi injection. Unless someone put a carb on your van, you should have cpi or throttle body fuel injection.

Search for this video. "How to replace the spider injector on a Cheyv motor. 4.3 or 5.7 liter"

thanks! ha and now there is a leak in one of the aluminum transmission lines running from my radiator, and im losing a lot of coolant but cannot seem to find where from... not good lol

Hi there, Did you put silicon before to set the gasket?

Nice video!

Did you disconnect the ac compressor?

local701 well i checked the fuel pump like u said..the clamps from pump to sending unit did in fact have medal clamps on it already..the pump looks very old,all rusted and corrosion all over it..so it wasnt leaking from any plastic clamps like we thought.so i cleaned the pump up real good,and put it back in,its still bogging like crazy.u cant even drive it its so bad.pops and sputters like crazy..but yet it idles fine..i don't get it..the pump goes on and i can hear it humming Everytime i turn the key on..do u aqua q)have any idea what else it could be? No smoke or anything coming out of the exhaust ...it starts right up and idles fine ..but as soon as u press the gas pedal it wants to stall and boggs down...BUT,WHAT I DID NOTICE,IS THAT IF I PRESS THE GAS PEDAL VERY VERY SLOWLY IT'LL REV UP AND LET ME RAISE THE RPM AS HIGH AS I WANT..ONLY WHEN I PRESS THE PEDAL VERY SLOWLY AND LET IT CLIMB..DO U THINK IT CAN BE A CLOGGED CAT? BECAUSE IT DID HAVE A BAD SPIDER PRIOR TO ME BUYING IT,SO IT WAS RUNNING VERY RICH BECAUSE ALL THAT EXTRA FUEL WASN'T BEING BURNED..WHAT DO U THINK?? SHOULD I CUT THE CAT OUT? AND OR STILL CHANGE THE FUEL PUMP? JUST DON'T WANNA BLOW MORE MONEY THEN I HAVE TOO..IVE ALREADY DUMPED WELL OVER 1,000$ INTO IT..JUST ON SENSORS,WIRES,VAC LINES,IAC,TPS,THE SPIDER,GASGET,PLUGS,NEW STARTER ,NEW DISTRIBUTOR ETC...NOW A FUEL PUMP IS 300$..IVE BEEN MESSING WITH THIS VAN FOR OVER 6 MONTHS NOW,AND STILL CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT..EVERYONE KEEPS TELLING ME ITS A DIFFERENT PART.THEN WHEN I GO OUT AND BUY THE PART AND PUT IT IN,ITS STILL BOGGING AND WANTS TO STALL,ONLY WHEN I TOUCH THE GAS PEDAL THOUGH..ANY IDEAS?? ID LITERALLY SEND U MONEY IF U CAN HELP ME FIGURE THIS OUT..2 SHOPS AROUND HERE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT A FUEL LEAK DOWN TEST WAS,THEY LOOKED AT ME LIKE I WAS CRAZY...THIS IS WHAT IM DEALING WITH IN CONNECTICUT HAHAHA!! 😀 ITS CRAZY!! PLEASE HELP!! LOL

what where the symptoms of this going bad. thanks

Put the front end up on ramps, get a creeper, get under it and I think you can reach them all, if not, you have to remove the doghouse to get the rear ones, not much fun at all.

I have a 2000 Chevrolet Astro van how's the best way to get to the spark plugs

Hi just saw your video , I just wanna ask I have a 1994 s10 blazer with the same engine cranks but won't start , I have spark and fuel ,I just replace cap rotor plugs wires , injection module . Can you give and Idea what could be? Thanks.

local701 well,i spent the whole day messing with this thing.lol..i still can't figure out what's up with it..prior to checking the fuel pressure on the rail,i had just put in a brand-new spider and regulator as a unit..not rebuilt,but BRAND-NEW,ALSO A NEW GASGET,PLUGS,WIRES,CAP AND ROTOR.SO EVERYTHING FROM THE FUEL RAIL FORWARD IS ALL BRAND-NEW..SOMEONE SAID SOMETHING TO ME ABOUT A KNOCK SENSOR MAY HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WIT IT..HAVE NO CLUE WHAT OR WHERE THAT IS...ANY IDEA ON WHAT THIS would have to do with my van bogging down when i press the gas pedal? Do u think that would cause it to stall and run like crap?

thanks for doing the video I really do appreciate it. can you do one with out the annoying pop ups

I need to do this on my moms 1995 GMC safari it needs the same thing replaced but the down said is we are stuck living in the van now going on a month now and I don't have any money and tools to replace that

local701 well i put the brand-new pump in..its a ac delco.the van hasn't changed one bit..still starts and idols fine,but the second i touch the gas pedal it wants to bog down and wants to stall..i have no clue what it could be.i even put a fuel gadge on it,the fuel pressure is right at 65 psi..and stays there.doesn't drop down at all..i can rev it,it stays..i can let it idol,it stays the same.i can shut it off and watch it,it stays the same..i cant figure out what the hell it can be..any thing else u think i can take a look at?

If you pull the fuel relay and try to start the vehicle at least twice it won't leak that much fuel..

Which model year is this van?

what year is this van? i have a 92 and im trying to figure out if mines fuel injected or carb. im a different kind of mechanic so im learning... and extremely confused if its car im gonna convert it to inject

Hİ CAN YOU TELL ME WHİCH YOU USE BRAKE OİL WHİCH ONE?

local701 hey bud,love ur vids.very helpful.i have a 95 astro cpi..and my van was blogging Everytime i try to touch the gas pedal.to the point it actually will stall if u try to give it gas.so i changed the spider (250$) and the fuel lines.(40$) and put a new gasget.and its still doing the same thing..any idea what else it could be? Full pump goes on,i can hear it.i replaced a map sensor,tps,iac,and a bunch of other bs,and the damn van starts and idles great,but as soon as u touch the gas paddle it wants to die.cant even put it in drive because it pops and spudders like crazy..what the heck can it be? I bought the van from a friend because he couldn't figure it out either.when i got it from him it was missing the map sensor,so i replaced that first because he took it off then miss placed it..lol..and like i said,ive put all new parts and sensors in top the intake and still boggs and stalls..i also has the timing done.still boggs down.it only has 92,000 original miles.changed all 6 spark plugs,new wires,cap an rotor...so what else can it be??? Any help or ideas u have,please,id greatly appreciate it..its driving me nuts because its in mint condition,all custom interior,45 inch plazma,22 inch rims,body kit,freshly painted paint job..and its just sitting in my driveway collecting dust ...im going nuts with this thing!! LOL it kills me to walk by this beautiful van every morning and not be able to drive it...please help! Thanks bud..😀

I hate it when they don't put the Year of the vehicle on videos. what year????

If you'd stripped that torx bolt, you'd have had to taken off the whole lower intake.
