  post locked   1992 jimmy fuel problems  

i have a 1992 gmc jimmy. it is not getting fuel. i put a new pump and filter on it. it is getting well over 60psi according to my guages. i can put gas in the intake and it will fire up. i just got done taking the plenum off and i took off the fuel line going to the spider it is getting gas there. and there is power going to the plug ontop of the spider. does this mean my spider is bad or is there something else i can check too.

any help would be appriciated. tim.

You will have to tap into the injector wiring and use a noid light to test for injector pulse.

Check all you fuses first using a test light.

i have tested all the fuses and there is power everywhere there should be. i do not have a noid light, is there anything else i can check a "pulse" with? (and just out of curiosity is it an alernating 6-12 volt "pulse" like some of the jeeps do?)
there is a plug on the top of the injection spider (the only wires going inside the plenum) and i checked it with the testlight and it is getting power there.

No, you can't use anything else. You can burn out the computer using an incandescent bulb. You can buy a noid light for under $10 at many parts stores.

No one uses a 6/12v to fire injectors.

There is a constant 12 volt on the PK/BK wire and the computer pulses the ground on the DK BLUE wire. When a noid light is connected between the 2, it should flash when cranking.

If you can't find one, look for a test light that uses an LED light instead of incandescent bulb.

You should be going between a pink with black tracer and a dark blue.

Did you just plug your light into a plug like that?

Buying parts on E-bay may save some money sometimes but it does have it's risks and inconveniences.

Glad you got it resolved. I'm going to close this thread now to keep the spammers out. It can be reopened upon request to a Mod.
