The manufacturer warns that it may be necessary to disconnect the refrigerant lines from the back of the compressor in order to remove the upper intake manifold assembly. If your vehicle is equipped with A/C, before beginning this procedure you must remove determine if this is necessary. If so, take the vehicle to a reputable repair facility and have the A/C system discharged and recovered using a suitable recovery station. ALSO, remember that if you are wrong and later decide that the system must be discharged, you may have to significantly reassemble the motor so the van may be driven to the repair facility.

Unlike previous versions of the 4.3L engine, the VIN W utilizes separate upper and lower intake manifold assemblies. It is possible to remove only the upper manifold assembly for access to fuel injection components. If this is all that is necessary on your vehicle, follow only the steps up to upper intake manifold removal, then skip to that portion of the installation procedure.

  1. Open the hood, then from inside the vehicle, remove the engine cover. For details, please refer to General Information & Maintenance of this information.
  2. If your vehicle is equipped with A/C determine if the compressor can be unbolted and repositioned in order to allow upper manifold removal or if the A/C refrigerant lines will have to be removed from the compressor. If you determine they must be removed from the compressor, take the vehicle to a reputable repair facility to have the system discharged and recovered.

If only the upper intake manifold is being removed, the fuel system pressure does not need to be released. ALWAYS release the pressure before disconnecting any fuel lines.

  1. Unless only the upper intake manifold is being removed, properly relieve the fuel system pressure.
  2. Disconnect the negative battery cable for safety.
  3. Unless only the upper intake manifold is being removed, drain the engine cooling system.
  4. Remove the air cleaner box and inlet duct.
  5. Disengage the wiring harness from the necessary upper intake components including:

    Throttle Position (TP) sensor
    Idle Air Control (IAC) motor
    Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor
    Communicator valve

  6. Disengage the throttle linkage, and the TV linkage if applicable) from the upper intake manifold.
  7. Disengage the wiring, then remove the ignition coil.
  8. Disconnect the PCV hose at the rear of the upper intake manifold, then tag and disengage the vacuum hoses from both the front and rear of the upper intake.
  9. If equipped with A/C, either unbolt and reposition the compressor (you will have to remove the serpentine drive belt first) or disconnect the refrigerant lines from the rear of the compressor. Remember that the A/C refrigerant must be recovered using a suitable recycling/recovery station before the lines can be disconnected.
  10. Remove the upper intake manifold bolts and studs, making sure to note or mark the location of all studs to assure proper installation. Remove the upper intake manifold from the engine.
  11. Disengage the wiring from the distributor (or HVS as applicable, they both perform the job of "distributing'' secondary ignition voltage to the plugs and are visually very similar) and matchmark the distributor or HVS, then remove the assembly from the engine.
  12. Disconnect the upper radiator hose at the thermostat housing and the heater hose at the lower intake manifold.
  13. Disconnect the fuel supply and return lines at the rear of the lower intake manifold.
  14. Disengage the wiring harness connectors from the necessary lower intake components including:

    Fuel injector
    Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve
    Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor

  15. Remove the lower intake manifold retaining bolts, then remove the manifold from the engine.
  16. Using a plastic scraper, carefully clean the gasket mounting surfaces. Be sure to inspect the manifold for warpage and/or cracks; if necessary, replace the manifold.

To install:
  1. Position the gaskets to the cylinder heads with the port blocking plates to the rear and the "this side up'' stamps facing upward, then apply a 3 /16 in. (5mm) bead of RTV sealant to the front and rear of the engine block at the block-to-manifold mating surface. Extend the bead 1 / 2 in. (13mm) up each cylinder head to seal and retain the gaskets.
  2. Install the lower intake manifold taking care not to disturb the gaskets. Apply sealer such as GM 1052080 or equivalent to the lower manifold retaining bolts, then install and tighten the manifold retainers to 35 ft. lbs. (48 Nm) using the proper torque sequence.
  3. Engage the wiring harness to the lower manifold components, including the injector, EGR valve and ECT sensor.
  4. Connect the fuel supply and return lines to the rear of the lower intake. Temporarily reconnect the negative battery cable, then pressurize the fuel system (by cycling the ignition without starting the engine) and check for leaks. Disconnect the negative battery cable for safety and continue installation.
  5. Connect the heater hose to the lower intake and the upper radiator hose to the thermostat housing.
  6. Align the matchmarks and install the distributor or HVS assembly, then engage the wiring.
  7. Position a new upper intake manifold gasket on the engine, making sure the green sealing lines are facing upward.
  8. Install the upper intake manifold being careful not to pinch the fuel injector wires or fuel lines between the manifolds.
  9. Install the manifold retainers, making sure the studs are properly positioned, then tighten them gradually and evenly to 124 inch lbs. (14 Nm).
  10. Either reposition and secure the A/C compressor or remove the plugs and reconnect the A/C refrigerant lines to the rear of the compressor.
  11. Connect the PCV hose to the rear of the upper intake manifold and the vacuum hoses to both the front and rear of the manifold assembly.
  12. Install the ignition coil and engage the wiring.
  13. Connect the throttle linkage to the upper intake.
  14. Engage the necessary wiring to the upper intake components including the TP sensor, IAC motor, MAP sensor and the communicator valve.
  15. Install the air cleaner and air inlet duct.
  16. Connect the negative battery cable.
  17. Properly refill the engine cooling system, then check for leaks.
  18. Once the engine has cooled sufficiently, install the engine cover to the passenger compartment.
  19. If the A/C system was discharged, take the van to a reputable repair facility to have the system evacuated, recharged and leak tested. DO NOT WAIT LONG to do this or moisture which entered the system while it was discharged will cause corrosion and internal system damage. ALSO, DO NOT run the compressor until the system has been properly recharged. Depending on how your model is equipped this may mean you CANNOT use the defogger (this automatically turns the compressor on in some vehicles).

Electric Fuel Pump

Print

See Figure 1



Click image to see an enlarged view

Fig. Fig. 1: The fuel pump and fuel gauge sender are incorporated in one unit mounted in the fuel tank

The electric fuel pump is attached to the fuel sending unit, located in the fuel tank.

REMOVAL & INSTALLATION



Because removal and installation of the fuel pump requires the removal of the fuel tank, refer to the procedures in the fuel tank portion of this section.

TESTING



Flow Test
  1. Relieve the fuel system pressure.
  2. Remove the fuel pump feed line from the fuel inlet on the throttle body.
  3. Place the fuel line in a clean container.
  4. Turn the ignition switch ON ; approximately 1 / 2 pint of the fuel should be delivered in 15 seconds.
  5. If the fuel flow is below minimum, inspect the fuel system for restrictions; if no restrictions are found, replace the fuel pump.

Pressure Test

See Figure 2



Click image to see an enlarged view

Fig. Fig. 2: Fuel system pressure testing

The following procedure requires the use of a GM Fuel Pressure Gauge tool No. J-29658-A or equivalent.

  1. Properly relieve the fuel system pressure.
  2. If necessary for access, remove the air cleaner assembly and plug the vacuum port(s).
  3. Disconnect the flexible fuel supply line, located in the engine compartment between the fuel filter and throttle body.
  4. Install a fuel pressure gauge, such as J-29658 or equivalent, in-line between the fuel filter and throttle body unit (between the steel line and flexible hose). If necessary use an adapter or Tee fitting in order to connect the gauge and complete the fuel circuit.

A Tee fitting may be fabricated for this purpose. Depending on the fuel pressure gauge, short lengths of steel tubing, appropriately sized flare nuts and a flare nut adapter may be used.

  1. If the engine will run, start the engine and allow it to run at normal idle speed. The fuel pressure should be 9-13 psi (62-90 kPa).
  2. If the engine does not run, turn the ignition ON , but do not attempt to start the engine. Listen for the fuel pump to run. Within 2 seconds of turning the ignition ON , pressure should be 9-13 psi (62-90 kPa). If necessary, cycle the ignition OFF , then ON again, in order to build up system pressure.
  3. If the fuel pump did not run or system pressure did not reach specification, locate the fuel pump test connector. The test connector is usually found on the driver's side of the engine compartment (on or near the fender), with a single wire (usually red) leading from the relay to the connector. Using a jumper wire, apply battery voltage to the test connector in order to energize and run the fuel pump. The pump should run and produce fuel pressure of 9-13 psi (62-90 kPa). If the pump does not run, check the relay and fuel pump wiring.
  4. If the pump pressure was lower than specification, first check for a restricted fuel line or filter and replace, as necessary. If no restrictions can be found, restrict the fuel supply line between the pressure gauge and the TBI unit (a flexible hose may be temporarily clamped to produce the restriction), then apply voltage to the test connector again. If pressure is now above 13 psi (90 kPa), replace the faulty pressure regulator. If pressure remains below 9 psi (62 kPa), then the problem is located in the fuel tank (the fuel pump, coupling hose or inlet filter).
  5. If during Step 7, the pressure was higher than specification, disengage the injector connector, then disconnect the fuel return line flexible hose which connects the line from the throttle body to the tank line. Attach a5 / 16 ID flex hose to the fuel line from the throttle body and place the other end into an approved gasoline container. Cycle the ignition in order to energize the fuel pump and watch system pressure. If pressure is still higher, check for restrictions in the throttle body return line. Repair or replace the line if restrictions are found or replace the faulty pressure regulator if no other causes of high pressure are identified. If fuel pressure is normal only with the flexible hose-to-fuel tank line out of the circuit, check that line for restrictions and repair or replace, as necessary.
  6. Once the test is completed, depressurize the fuel system and remove the gauge.
  7. Secure the fuel lines and check for leaks.
  8. If removed, install the air cleaner assembly.
