1992 Chevy Blazer uses alot of gas and doesn't have much power when accelerating. I have just gotten it and have had fords for many years. If you can tell me where to start I would send you some cookies. Someone suggested it may be the fuel injector. It has a new fuel pump, filter and many moduals. It has 170,000 miles on it. It is in good shape the 4X4 works great, and it is worth saving, if I can get it to run like my ford.

Thank you for taking the time to answer, it is very thoughtful. I have used that product, many years ago and had forgetten about it. It is good stuff, and I will do that, I'll let ya know how it goes if you like.

What brand of fuel pump?

What size engine?

What shape are the plugs and wires in?

Definitely post a result. I can't sleep some nights wondering what happened to some of the vehicles. :) But seriously, it helps for a learning environment :wink:

Don't know the engine size yet 6 cyl though. plug wires and plugs are brand new. The guy who gave it to me ($100) Don't know what brand fuel pump he put in either. I will find out. Weekends are very busy for me, i work the whole time. But I think he crossed 2 wires after glancing at the firing order in the repair book I have. I enjoy knowing what happens to the tips i suggest too, it does help learning, and meeting some quality people, refreshing!
Thanks for your time
