  • The part used in this video is a GP Sorensen Fuel Pressure Regulator 88-225 with a 3-year warranty from Autozone. I hope this helps!
    Also, the spot weld on the old pressure regulator is from the factory OEM.

    That spot weld on the Pressure Reg is a factory weld from GM, It is supposed to be there so it cannot be adjusted. Set screw is under it.

    On a side note- if ANY youtuber who works on cars wants to improve their videos 400% overnight, it is easy. NEVER point to what you are working on with your finger ( most of us cannot see what it is anyway). Everything is either black or rusty metal where you are pointing. It is like me pointing and saying "See that tree?" in a big forest.
    Go to the store and buy a small diameter wood dowel rod, preferably 1/4" and sharpen one end like a pencil, then paint it white with the last 1 1/2" painted orange or red or light blue ( something bright. Use paint, tape or what ever you already have in your garage. Then use THAT to point to things!
    Secondly- I don't understand when someone says "I can't hold the camera". Neither can anyone else! That is why we go to Amazon and order super cheap, magnetic holders for our phones and mount them in all of our cars. I had to make 2 of them for my truck camper just to mount my phones to recharge and 1 in the window on the glass for the hotspot. Some phone mounts, wood and velcro did the trick! Just make a magnetic base, an articulating arm with a magnetic phone holder on top. Easy!

      I put new AC Delco injectors in my 92 to see if I could clear up some ping under low rpm load in 4th gear. New injectors cleaned up my already fairly smooth idle but now she will start to loop at idle after a fully warmed up engine on shutdown/heatsoak restarts. Doesn't happen once I drive a few feet. If I keep it in park it will loop drastically and sometimes die. Drives fine otherwise, starts cold no problem. Doesn't die or rough idle once you get rolling a few mph. Got to be a sensor getting warm and cooling off once you get rolling or something in the primitive computer on fully warmed restarts.

      Park the car or truck overnight. Get about three shop rags, put on underneath both injectors and one at the back of the tbi to catch fuel. Wear safety glasses and make sure you get the right torx bit and unscrew all the top screws. The back ones are longer so keep track of where they go. The whole top unit will come off the top of the injectors and there are four more screws holding on the regulator(round and spring loaded). Keep pressure applied until all four screws are removed and slowly release the cylinder for the regulator. Pretty easy just don't spray fuel in your eyes and don't drop any screws into the motor.

    It would be sweeeeeeeeet if someone who wrote code can write a code for a troubleshooting flowchart of these engines. It needs to have a national database where folks can log in enter the info about the vehicle, the symptoms they were having and what the KNOWN fix was for them. Then it could calculate (possibly using AI) what you should try first and then what percentage you have for that fixing your vehicle. It would be so much easier then watching hundreds of vehicle videos and replacing parts 1 at a time only to not having it be the one you need.

    Hello, I am trying to find the cause but only when the motor is warm / at operating temperature. 1995 GMC Suburban with 5.7 TBI. When cold, it starts up fine and runs at the high idle until the motro warms up. Then, at operating temperature, the RPM's will surge. Stays around 800 RPM but will drop down ot around 500 and keep fluctuating. When you put the truck into drive or reverse, the motor will stall out a majority of time and sitting in park, if you go above 1500 RPM, the motor will stumble, act like its missing. But...If you are on the road driving, non of this is noticable. I have replaced the exhaust system from the catalytic converter back, new O2 sensor as well as MAP and temperature coolant sensor. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you.

The contact plunger and spring inside of the cap was nothing more that a hard dust as it crumbled when I touched it ! All of the contact points were very durty and corroded. We chanded them out with new OEM parts and this corrected the stalling out issue when put into gear as well as the stallings / RPM surging when sitting at idle. Went on a 20 minute road test with no issues. There is a noticable miss at 3000 RPM and above, but nothing like what we experienced before. I have an new OEM set of wires and awaiting new OEM spark plugs to arrive and I am hopeful once those items are changed out, it completely fixes the issue, but, as stated, changing the cap and rotor fixed the stalling and shutting down issue when placed into gear. Thank you for your time and help.
