i know it is kinda randomly asking but does anybody know a good website to watch new tv shows online ?
Hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Whoever designed this at gmc should have to service fuel regulators in hell for eternity...
🤣
Hell yeah they should
I literally just finished doing this job 20 minutes ago then I came across your post here and hit the floor laughing. Your so right this job was a ball buster. 95 degrees heat too I'm completely beat down thanks for the laugh.
Speaking of heat, one of the worst jobs I took on was changing heads on a neighbors Chevy van. 100,000 miles all boxed in and running maximum temperature made every bolt in the intake manifold like an old exhaust manifold bolt. Plus totally baked grease and sludge filled all the pockets around the bolt heads making it impossible to put socket on until you chiseled it out with a chisel.
I spent a whole day just trying to get the intake bolts all out. On of his friends who was a diesel mechanic came by and said he would have had that done in 20 minutes, I handed the hammer and chisel to him and said " here you go ".
I couldn't imagine one of these in that van. Everything would be breaking like it were made of glass.
Finally someone actually taking the time to show how to remove the fuel pressure regulator and how to put it back on .
THANK YOU.

I'm checking out how you shove that thing in there under all that other stuff without knocking the gasket off.
How does that fuel regulator plug into vacuum?
I love how calm you explain it all. So much better than being yelled at in person lmao
Is that a 97 in your picture?
Next question oh my God isn't there somewhere else they can put that
Some of the chevy trucks of this same time frame have it on the side of the motor, within easy reach , go figure. Couldn't get that lucky myself.
I was wanting to replace just the regulator but once I got to it, I saw that I needed my fuel injector assembly also, I replaced it, came with the regulator so I did the whole thing. Thank you, I did everything the way you said, it all worked out great.
This is the best video I've seen showing any kind of work on a 350 Vortec!
+Lisa Fuentes Thanks for checking us out! Shop here for high quality auto parts: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Yeah old truck videos are usually filmed with a potato
Good video, only thing it could use is some real close shots of things.
Can't see too much on a phone.
Thank you, made the job less intimidating if no less tedious! Appreciate the clear step by step directions. I found I could replace the regulator without removing the whole assembly, didn't want to risk breaking any injector lines!

In the process of replacing my injectors on my 97 you made me confident to do my own I'm not a mechanic but common sense will be put into effect thanks for the How To!!!
+Jerome Brooks Thank you! We love empowering our customers and showing how to perform DIY auto repairs with our high-quality auto parts. 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Can u tell us what diagnosis or reason why u would change the fuel pressure regulator? What symptoms would the car have? Etc?...thanks
This video was great! Better than the fuel injector replacement I watched earlier. Loved the reassembly instruction!!!
The real question is.
What else should we replace while we are in there?
Thanks for an awesome video. One of the best how-to vids I've ever seen. I'm doing this on my 99 Suburban because of the clarity and attention to detail on this video Thank You Guys!! My mechanic hates you - lol
+Luvyabro Productions Thank you!
After 2 whole years of my truck hesitating i finally got it! I was able due to without disconnecting the rear fuel lines. Truck starts like it's brand new!
I really dig the video, and honestly your advertisement was spot on.
+Cade Golden Thanks for checking us out! Shop here for high quality auto parts: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
you are the best thank you GOD BLESS
This is my task next weekend 👍thanks
I just figured it out. Lol it doesn't need a vacuum line because it's inside the intake with the vacuum. Lmao sorry, I feel like a noob now. Lol. Great video by the way
+Dan Driver Thanks for checking us out. Shop here for high quality auto parts: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
You make it look too easy
Your a champion
...I clicked on your link below, I hit the 3 drop-downs, 1997, Chevrolet, Suburban K1500, typed in injector manifold. No results, I watched the video, upon removing the part, he called it an injection manifold, typed that in, that gave me the option to click on 'injection manifold' and 2 other options, I clicked on that, that brought up exhaust manifolds. Does 1AAuto have this part, the regulator, and gasket?
...I appreciate ALL of 1As videos and try to buy from 1A as often as possible, at first to patronize those whose videos help me so much so often, and then I've found too that the parts have always been Top Of The Line. Love You Guys, Thank You!!!
If you are having trouble starting your truck after installing this, put a bit of oil on the o rings and really try and create a good seal. It is harder than it looks to put back in place. Twist and push. Also, be careful with the small o ring. I dropped mine in the fuel rail and it was a pain to get out.
Outstanding video!!! Best and most concise I've seen on this subject. Thank you so much!!!
+gvjester Thank you for the great reply. We love to empower our customers by showing you how-to perform your own auto repairs while installing our high quality auto parts. Have a great day! 1aauto.com
I appreciate your videos I learned a lot from thank you
Excellent video… I’m not much of a mechanic, but this went much easier than I thought… Unfortunately, the fuel pressure regulator was not my problem after all of this I still had very low pressure until I found an open ground between my firewall and my frame …soon as that was replaced my pressure went up and my truck started
+Pete stroup Thanks for checking us out. Shop for high quality auto parts on 1AAuto.com:

I got fusterated just looking at how much work this is I think I'm selling my 98
Jesse James Curley let me tell ya lol it’s a pain in the dick
How do I know if it is bad? 2000 chevy pick up ..no power under a load. Replaced a bunch of stuff. Still doing it. No check engine lights on 🤔
This video took all intimidation out of this job. My engine was the 4.3 V6 but basically the very same setup minus 2 cylinders. I also replaced the spider injector assembly while I was in there. I left the old spider assembly on our porch and my wife killed it with a broom. JK. Lol.
Thanks again!
Y did you replace it to begin with
Excellent video
Very good video, thank you 👍.
DO I HAVE TO CHAGE THE ENTIRE INYECTOR SPIDER OR JUST THE REGULATOR I ONLY HAVE 20PSI PRESURE ON MY LINE
SO IM GOIN TO DO THE SAME THING ON MY SCALADE2000
what does a faulty fuel pressure regulator cause?
Very cool! Similar on the astro / safari vans
Hi, I've got the spider out of my 2000 Jimmy. Can you tell me how to remove the injectors from the fuel metering body? Thanks
Does the purge vent solenoid have just one vacuum hose going to it or just one going to the canister notice one side had opened end l shape rubber fitting
This video is for 1996 to 1998 chevy pickups with the vortec. 1988 to 1995 tbi engines have the fuel pressure regulator actually inside the tbi unit itself. Since the vortec works off a spider style injector system that leads to a set of fuel rails while the tbi only has two injectors that are actually in the throttle body the regulator cannot be past the injectors. Please start making these distinctions between these trucks, body styles are the same, but interior(yes referring to your radio installation video) and fuel and ignition systems are completely different.
+Zach Whyte Thank you for your feedback!
So I have an 88 c1500 is this job much easier on an 88 ?
Is there a video for the tbi system
does it work on a 99 chevy tahoe? it had a 5.7 v8
Thank you so much!! This video made it a breeze to do
+Johnny Martens Thanks for checking us out!
it's hard finding a good mechanic
Can you/is it recommended to adjust the regulator or can it be tuned?
Awesome video....is it the same on a 4.3?? Thx
May I ask i have a 1996 chevy suburban 5.7 k 1500. Starts and runs like new unless its summer time. Turn it off to run in the store and come out and it won't start until the next morning,fires right up then! The fuel pressure is perfect and it has a new distributor,plugs,wires,coolent temp sensor none of wich fixed this issue. NO check engine lights on! In the winter months this problem goes away. Thanks for the advice!?👍👍
Thank you very much for your video.
Is it normal for the o-ring around the fuel-injector box on the inside of the manifold to be all stretched out? It's stretched like an inch and too loose to reuse.
What size o-ring do I need?
Thank you for your time.
John Disque when you get the intake manifold gasket it comes in a kit of gaskets and o-rings should have everything you need
+bill0006 3433 Thanks for checking us out! 1AAuto.com
Why remove the injection manifold? Can't it be replaced right there? Thanx for Your vids.
For what he replaced he didn't need to take off half of the item he removed. I'm not sure if this was a music video or the long way to replace the fuel regulator but I will hire his ass in a second to fix anything that I drive because this brother is detailed lol
Great info
+Dubs Racing Thank you!
Now when u did this did the bracket have 2 bolts holding it there or one?
Would this cause losing prime issues? Fuel pump and in line filters have been changed. Occasionally won’t start.
Would love to see this on a tbi. I am looking for a video for my 1988 5.7 and can’t find any.
You won’t find a video either because the fuel pressure regulator is built into the throttle body, operated by vacuum. Gotta replace the entire throttle body.
is this the same for a 98 Astro 4.3 ?
What kind of inspection would you do on the fuel injection manifold to insure it doesn't need replacing?
What was your experience on that? That's where I'm at, I am being a bit frugal and didn't feel like spending 300 on the whole assembly and only purchased the regulator for fifty. I want to do this tomorrow. I've heard that some of the plastics can become brittle and break. I'll guess I find out the hard way. Worst case scenario, I'll have to wait 2 days before I get the whole assembly from Amazon if things start falling apart, hope not though. I'll try to let it soak in some solvent to clean it up before putting it back.
Good video. What is the cost for this job? Thanks
This is pretty involved for me so I'll let a pro do it, I have a 97 w/ 150k what else should I have replaced while this is being done?
I wonder what that last nut on the magnet tray went to...
Way to go I don’t think anybody gets the new oring on
is this something I can do in a couple hours outside with hardly any workbench space?
Does the fuel pressure regulator have a vacuum line connected to it? Or is it pretty much an emergency valve that when fuel hits too much pressure, it let's fuel exit out the "vacuum" port into the intake? I ask because I can't find a vacuum line or any way to regulate the fuel pressure from the pcm. Thanks
A guy asked this earlier and another guy commented that it doesn’t need the line some vehicles do have the line but it’s unnecessary
Doing mine again, still has a hard start even with an ACDELCO.
I'm going to try the Professional Delco regulator and hopefully it does the job.
Did the ACDelco solve it?
Update, installed the Professional ACDelco and it fixed the problem. Do not buy the standard ACDelco or you will have to redo it again
Supposedly this is the same procedure for a 2000 GMC Savana 3500 with the 5.7L engine?
Im getting charged $560 to do this job.. i watched this video and the price seems great for a job that probably would take me at least a whole day.
Yea I though the same damn thing
I've thought about using high temp red rtv (up to 650 degrees Fahrenheit) instead of a gasket. What are your thoughts on it?
DID IT WORK FOR YOU
Would a fuel pressure regulator cause your truck to loose power if you try to step on it or going up hills like if it were struggling?
+Andrew Macias It might, or it could be a bad fuel pump. 1aauto.com
Paul Braam About a 3 or 4 months ago I replaced the fuel filter
Great video buddy so is there not supposed to be a vacuum line on that fuel pressure regulator
Works on vacuum inside the intake. No line needed on it. Some of them had a short little rubber hose but it's not needed.
Which begs the obvious question..... is there somewhere else they can put that?
This on the box idea. Flame retardant container just like airbag container for example .. That automatically sprays or manually controlled in strategic areas where fire is most likely to start
Love my 95 chev PU, don't have to have to remove the four tires to replace the sparkplugs.
Does the top of that lower intake manifold look dirty and should it be cleaned? Why didn't you label the injectors when removing? It would really suck to get those mixed up and realize it after reassembly or are they easy to put back correctly? Should the injectors be cleaned while out of the vehicle as well?
+Rob Owings Thanks for watching! You do not have to clean that portion of the manifold, but if you can clean it without getting debris everywhere it wouldn't hurt. All of those injectors are the same stock part, so it shouldn't matter if they get switched around. Again, if you want to take the time to label them it won't hurt. They do not need to be cleaned either unless you notice carbon or gunk build up. 1aauto.com
Also curious about failing to number the injectors... are they labeled already? This will be my 1st attempt at this repair. And alot of miles on it, so considering replacing the injectors and regulator at the same time, as the pressure leaks off so fast it's on 0 by the time I've turned the key off and walked 6 steps back to read the gauge
If you do this, don't reuse that old black spider injector or you'll be back in it replacing it soon anyway. Get the green colored MPFI injectors, they fit right in and are vastly more reliable
Does this problem caused a code (?number) Multi misfire, act like losing power then some minutes go out, but come back on later on? (Bad Gas?) or it the start of another problem fuel injector maybe, bad fuel pump (Pump was chang out 7+ year ago?) 316,100 mile on it.
Mine has difficulty starting - till I break out the starting fluid. Still not 100% sure if it's the pump, regulator or injectors leaking down.
How fo you test it?
It kinda seems you didn't really have to remove the whole spider assembly to remove the pressure regulator you could of removed it while the lines where still connected
And is this the same as a 7.4 454?
Once I get to the control module, I'm stucked... are not three bolts holding it, in my truck are two 10mm nuts, and the bracket goes all back at the intake. I can see you removed only two bolts and piece of cake.
Dude, check out the bird or rats nest in the air box !!! Other than that, EXCELLENT VIDEO !!!!!!!!
Glad I wasn't the only one seeing that
Isn't there a vacuum line that goes to the other end of the fuel pressure regulator. More specifically the one that is not plugged into the Spider injector and is facing downward?
For anyone wondering the same thing, the answer is no... The vacuum line on a fuel pressure regulator normally goes to a source of manifold vacuum. However, this fuel pressure regulator is inside the manifold already in vacuum.
I hope you answer me even though it has been 3 years. I have an issue when I’m driving my 96 suburban. It glitches or I don’t know how to explain it, English isn’t my first language. When I drive from a full stop it stutters like I’m taking my foot off the throttle, even tough I have my leg on the throttle steady.
+Abdurhman Albeshar We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Where is the 2012 CADILLAC ESCALADE FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR Located?
I need info for a 92 chevy Silverado 5.7 please
What was the vehicle doing for them to have the fuel pressure regulator replace. Please let me k8
PROBABLY DUMPING TO MUCH GAS CAUSING BLACK SMOKE
Yes what were the symptoms??
my friends hesitated to start and when it did start it idled low and cut off alot like it was starving for the right amount of fuel to run correctly
mine is losing fuel pressure, and won't start , has new fuel pump. pressure goes to 55 when cranking and drops to 0 when stop cranking.
Can this cause loud humming/whining sound coming from fuel lines?
Very possible. Normally the fuel pump will charge the line before starting then shut off. With a faulty regulator the pump can continue to run causing pressure to be returned to the tank
Did you just replace the screen and o-rings? It looks like you put the old fpr back in.
He says in video he is showing how to replace, using old regular.
Yall got a wiring diagram with each label name?
This is only for 1996-1998 vortec engines with spider injection, this is not for 1988-1995 TBI engines.
+Diesel Doctor Matt Thanks for checking us out! 1AAuto.com
So do you need to remove the distributor?
+Devo Thanks for watching! You just need to undo the bolts to give enough slack, it doesn't have to be fully removed.
I am decent mechanic in that I'm always learning planning to learn.. just an idea I'm a plumber on occasion .....earthquake shut off valve in a vehicle..... when vehicle senses an accident ....at the source.... at the tank.... this fuel would be shut off... possibly fuel lines even evacuated with reverse of system.... just an out-of-the-box engineering idea
Acually most have that it shuts the fuel pump off when you get in wreck.
Acually most have that it shuts the fuel pump off when you get in wreck.
Acually most have that it shuts the fuel pump off when you get in wreck.
You have the hood off too!?
With out of the box idea .. the driver could keep his fuel running as long as he wants to to move out of the way of the accident. But then he or she can the big red button that evacuates the system and shuts the fuel off from the tank
What is the white wire on top of the injector connector? Mine has one but it is not connected to anything.
It is just a retaining clip for the harness
Title says pressure regulator not the intake manifold
I just did all this work and still 60psi then when the pump stops before ignition psi drops suddenly to 10psi.
Title says "88 - 98 " would it be same procedure for 99 ?
+Frank E. At this moment, the closest how-to video we have to your request is for this vehicle, which is very similar to the one you have. The steps may not be 100% the same, but should contain an adequate amount of information necessary for accomplishing this task:
geez.. I need to do this in my 96 Express. I think it would be easier to add an aftermarket regulator to the return line.
Wow, he did it in 23 minutes! Be sure to change the manifold gasket. If you have a vacuum leak after all that, you will want to send your truck off a cliff.
+Ray P. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
What about a 2004 where the fuel pressure regulator is in the fuel tank.
what is the part number
You can do it without removing whole assembly.
Show the how to do it video.
It's not that easy with new orings and stuff it's a bit of a struggle to get the clip on, especially if you have the upgraded spider and some of the injectors are stuck so you can't take the spider out and work on it on a bench.
Will this bad make it so I have to use starting flued to start? I have new pump new lines and filter fairly new tune up. And no codes? Plz help this seems like it could be I hope not cuz seems like a bitch lol
When ever your ready I made some contacts.
😮, I've got a 96 F150 and a 96 Silverado, the Ford's Fuel Pressure Regulator is So much easier and faster to replace, nothing like all this
dont need music good video why not new injectors while apart thanks
+jhanlon1903 Yes that would be a great time to put in new feul injectors. The reason we didn't in this particular video was because we were just showing how to replace the fuel pressure regulator
This video is for 96-98 NOT 88-95! Totally different set up on 88-95!
Great video but I am still gonna have to have 2 guy's 1 to work on it and one to yell at or to take mental health advice from.😢😄👍
