Why do you need to clean throttle body injectors?

Why do you need to clean throttle body injectors?

Over time, varnish and sediment clog the screens and injectors, causing inefficient fuel atomization. Many times cleaning the injectors will restore proper atomization and engine performance.

Where is the fuel line on the throttle body?

Locate the fuel lines attached to the back of the throttle body. The smaller of the two lines is the fuel inlet line. Find the fuel service port: it will be located a few inches away from the throttle body on the inlet line. Screw the gauge assembly from the cleaning kit onto the service port.

What kind of fuel injection does a GMC use?

Back in 1992, General Motors introduced a new type of fuel injection system known as “Central Port Injection” (CPI), which GM also refers to as “Central Multi-point Fuel Injection” (CMFI). The system was used on 4.3L V6 Vortec engines through 1995, and was redesigned in 1996 and renamed “Central Sequential Fuel Injection” (CSFI).

How is fuel delivery controlled in a GMC Truck?

The powertrain control module (PCM) estimates air flow using inputs from the MAP sensor, throttle position sensor, temperature sensor and engine speed. Fuel delivery is controlled by pulse width modulation. The PCM varies the on-time or dwell of the MAXI injector to control the air/fuel mixture.

When did Vortec start using CSFI fuel injection?

The system was used on 4.3L V6 Vortec engines through 1995, and was redesigned in 1996 and renamed “Central Sequential Fuel Injection” (CSFI). The system was also added to 5.0L and 5.7L Vortec V8 engines.
