This video was invaluable in replacing my 96 c1500 injectors, though you really do not need to remove the distributor cap or fuel lines. Just taking out the bolt on the bracket gives you enough slack in the fuel lines to move them out of the way.
Such a well put together video and very clear understanding. Thanks for taking the time. In return I reached out to buy this for my Chevy 2500 because it looks the same but didn't have a fitment for my truck. What I'm trying to say people...buy from them,they took the time for the video. Their prices are good too. I checked around.
Great tutorial. Short of rebuilding my own engine (was an aspiration of mine at one time; when I was younger of course) this procedure is about as involved as I'd wish to attempt on my own. Thank you.

Truly excellent, informative video tutorial. Now, can we take a moment and talk about the idiot engineers at GM that came up with this devilry??? And I'm a hard core Chevy guy. This is one of the most idiotic intake setups GM ever came up with.
@@kiteslights7189 it may or may not but I tell you this once you change out the spider 🕷 injection system with new all 8 and the fuel pressure regulator and clean the throttle it’s like having a new truck only about and hour or 2 job.
Thank goodness GM put the injectors under the intake instead of outside of the intake and into exposed intake runners for easy access. God knows the people that work in these love to take an intake off to get to them. /s
I have a question that I hope you can answer. I just put in a new spider injector and it's getting fuel and has good ohms but for some reason they poppets won't open and disperse gas. What do you think the issue is?
It makes perfect sense that they go bad and sometimes have overspray causing a miss fire, it gets hot in there of course they're not going to last inside there
Kevin Kingsbury I totally agree with you on that. It is such a nasty job changing out those things and for that reason I always tell people even if they’re not bad just replace them all anyways because only time will tell before they actually do go bad and then you have to go through that whole procedure all over again.
I'm going to be doing this in 2 weeks to my 96 silverado with a 5.7 liter. Why not replace the fuel pressure regulator filter while im at it. Anything else I should do while I am in there ??
Awesome video. The 95-99 K1500 series only come with spider injectors? I’ve heard they can go out and be expensive to replace. Is this the case? Thanks!
I put the New Spider Injectors in my 98 chevy k1500 5.7L, But I accidentally put them in the wrongt holes and now I don't know how to remove them because there are NO TABS on them like the old style . Can you PLEASE HJELP ME OUT ?????
Watching this video makes me anxious and I'm not even the one doing the work! I swear, whoever designed the CFI system on these trucks needs to be shot. When it's good, it runs like a dream. But one thing goes wrong and it runs like crap
Can anyone tell me how i can identify if i need to replace injectors or not? Im in the midst of diagnosing and checked to see how involved this repair is and want to know how to see if this is what's wrong with it
Is this also the way to replace fuel injectors on a GMC 1999 Suburban? Think it is a C1500 4 wheel drive. It just developed a problem after stopping at the store and restarting the engine. When I make the first right or left turn it bogs down like maybe 4 cylinders have flooded with gas. Was suspecting a leaking fuel injector.
+Roger Merritt It may be a different procedure on your application. We currently do not have an auto repair video for this particular year, make and model. Thank you for asking. 1aauto.com
I have a 1997 4 wheel drive suburban 1500 turns over it gets fire put a new fuel pump in it it's getting fuel all the way up to the pressure release valve but still won't start not getting fuel through the injector you spray carburetor cleaner in a fire-up
Can anyone help usually in the morning my Yukon seems to pull in the like kinda heavy like losing fuel makes it feel like my transmission didn’t work but if it warms up after 20mins it’s fine
Not worth it really just better to buy the new spider 🕷 system and change yourself worth it since the a prone to leaking as they age change it once and the fuel pressure regulator you have a new truck.
Can you hook up a injection cleaning machine unhook fuel pump relay hook up hose to fuel rail set pressure to 50 psi add cleaning solutions to tank ,,let run till tank is empty,
permanent misfire in the codes. (PO30* somethings) the old obd2 stays good with mentioning it. you can try a poop ton of cleaners (marvel, techron, lucas, seafoam, etc) and let it idle. if it comes back at an idle even for a few minutes at a time.. keep throwing cleaners at it.. its not a bad injector, it is simply dirty. I had one skip after hitting a big bump once... cleaners brought it back. These can skip just for removing gas tank for a couple of days (mechanic called it de-airing, or regaining nitrogen) Very sensitive.
I call it Frugal insanity... once down that far I think should be recommended to change all of the injectors.. ironically and possibly after reassembly and driving down the road for two weeks another injector goes out..
Well, they did. This is simply an instructional video for those who want to replace the spider injector. If you notice, they have a video upgrading the fuel injection system and basically use this exact footage except they changed the bit with re-installing the injector. You can find that video here: ruclips.net/video/_1Hkjc8zcb4/видео.html
Doing it in the middle of winter right now, it’s not so bad main thing is all those connections but that can be done with some labelling won’t take too long before your all done
I come here for the tutorials. However I would not recommend buying these parts. They are low quality roll the dice parts. If you want absolute reliability obviously go with all AC Delco professional line parts. Most are OEM or as close as it gets. They sent me some shocks that were acceptable though.

Great video 1A Auto! One thing to add is that if you are getting into it this far, replace the pressure regulator while you are there👍🏻

Why not replace with a new MPFI injector assembly instead of reusing the old assembly which is prone to failure?
Kevin Kingsbury I totally agree with you on that. It is such a nasty job changing out those things and for that reason I always tell people even if they’re not bad just replace them all anyways because only time will tell before they actually do go bad and then you have to go through that whole procedure all over again.
Cost.
Upgrading to a newer MPFI from a 2004 will give you a better running engine. World of a difference.
@@ismaelcarrillo3956 how so? do you have a part number?
Great video but the link does not take me to the injectors for my 98 C2500.
As a dyi-er how come the upper intake manifold in my case has black gunk all over it ? Tia for any answers.
I'm going to be doing this in 2 weeks to my 96 silverado with a 5.7 liter. Why not replace the fuel pressure regulator filter while im at it. Anything else I should do while I am in there ??
Don't drop any tools inside.
Wonder if this would be around the same for a 98 tahoe
If ive torn it apart this far i would replace all of the injectors

What a fricking nightmare, now I have to convince myself that I want to get myself into that. Idiots who designed that!
Are there o rings on the flare nut fittings at the back of the intake manifold?
yes, identical to fuel filter connections.

@@1AAuto fuel pump? They die slowly when running on low fuel alot.
Maybe a mouse or two we caught one yesterday underneath the stove so definitely going to need probably some traps put out
What?
I have a 1997 4 wheel drive suburban 1500 turns over it gets fire put a new fuel pump in it it's getting fuel all the way up to the pressure release valve but still won't start not getting fuel through the injector you spray carburetor cleaner in a fire-up
Did you get it fixed? Dealing with the same problem.
Can anyone help usually in the morning my Yukon seems to pull in the like kinda heavy like losing fuel makes it feel like my transmission didn’t work but if it warms up after 20mins it’s fine
You should let your vehicle warm up for roughly 20 minutes in the winter months anyway so the fluid can warm up and expand some.
How do you know of the injector is bad or not
Is there any way of cleaning these injectors?? The part itself is a bit pricey just wondering
Not worth it really just better to buy the new spider 🕷 system and change yourself worth it since the a prone to leaking as they age change it once and the fuel pressure regulator you have a new truck.
Does this apply to a 4.3 L
Yeaa i think im going to let my mechanic do this job 😅
Can you hook up a injection cleaning machine unhook fuel pump relay hook up hose to fuel rail set pressure to 50 psi add cleaning solutions to tank ,,let run till tank is empty,
two questions... How do you know if an injector is bad after you remove it? and why did you not replace with the new upgraded mfi injection manifold?
permanent misfire in the codes. (PO30* somethings) the old obd2 stays good with mentioning it. you can try a poop ton of cleaners (marvel, techron, lucas, seafoam, etc) and let it idle. if it comes back at an idle even for a few minutes at a time.. keep throwing cleaners at it.. its not a bad injector, it is simply dirty.

These can skip just for removing gas tank for a couple of days (mechanic called it de-airing, or regaining nitrogen) Very sensitive.
What size engine
for the life of me, i cannot get the fuel lines to come out!! im using a 16, but it slips, any ideas anyone? Thanks in advance!
New O-rings on the fuel lines that come from the tank should be replaced.
I call it Frugal insanity... once down that far I think should be recommended to change all of the injectors.. ironically and possibly after reassembly and driving down the road for two weeks another injector goes out..
+Jack Parker Thanks for the comments and for watching!
Customer probably could only afford what needed to be fixed.
Can y'all do one for a Honda Civic
Why would you do all this and not replace the entire assembly with the upgraded version?
Well, they did. This is simply an instructional video for those who want to replace the spider injector. If you notice, they have a video upgrading the fuel injection system and basically use this exact footage except they changed the bit with re-installing the injector. You can find that video here: ruclips.net/video/_1Hkjc8zcb4/видео.html
