Stuck Injectors!!!!!

Yes, if your LS Swap engine has set up, before you do all the wiring, plumbing or what ever. Check your injectors, 8 stuck in swap engine, checked 2 more sets, 1 injector of the 24 work before soaking/cleaning. Someone might add this info to the Swap FAQ.

Good info/advice. I soaked mine in Seafoam for 24 hrs and then checked that they were opening and closing with a 9 volt battery. Installed them in the motor and it lit right off first time turning the key. The motor hadn't been started in 11 years.....

Re: Stuck Injectors!!!!!

Saw your video, my 5.3 is a 2000 with just 10K on it, not sure how long it has sat, at least that long. Finally getting my Blazer going after about 8 years. Hope to drive it to Destin for Spring Break in March

Or the easier thing to do is turbo that thing and just buy new injectors for it

That's always a good feeling. You never know what you might run into with it sitting that long.....
