Chevy Silverado Misfire , Dirty fuel Injector

Chevy Silverado Misfire , Dirty Injector ,.This 1999 Chevy Silverado was running badly and had a misfire. The Chevy Silverado hooked up to the Scanner showed a misfire on number eight cylinder .The 5.3 in the chevy Silverado is easy to switch ignition coil and plug wire with another cylinder. After swapping two coils the misfire stayed the same, so i pulled the number eight and number six spark plugs , done a compression check on those two cylinders and then swapped the spark plugs. Still no change and compression was same on both cylinders. Then i pulled number eight fuel injector and cleaned it . After cleaning the injectors the Chevy Silverado truck runs like new.

I have noticed that this is common with Cyl 7 and 8 on the truck engines, seems the trash in the fuel rail like to collect on the back 2 cyl's

Excellent diagnosis and trouble shooting. Process of elimination is always a good way to save buying parts you don't need to buy.

Proper diagnosis is key! Good video

[@db187654]

More than enough info for me. I have the same truck and was wondering what the voltage for the injectors was. Your video helped me out alot. Thanks

[@jmac2mill]

Good enough how to for me. Not too technical. I appreciate it👏👏

I made one of 65 fords injector tools and improved on the sealing a bit . I put a vid up of it . Good info man !

[@anubisjayne]

Dude this was great vid quick and to the point without a lot of useless info and back story. THIS WAS GREAT and has giving me some definitive direction to take with my 8th cylinder misfire on my 99 suburban. Sadly it is spider style injection. Lots of fun! Thanks again!!!!!

I changed all my injectors, I knew they could be “cleaned” but didn’t know the screen came out, gonna go back and look at old ones to learn how that works. Great video 👍👍

[@Steelaworkn]

Very informative. Lots of good stuff in there. I didn't know we could clean injectors that way. Gonna give it a shot. Thanks.

When I cleaned mine I blew the cleaner through the injector from the bottom to the top. First time I ever cleaned an injector and it worked great.
