Joe, What motor? CPI or TBI? That year could have either. Look at the 8th VIN digit Vin W(CPI) 55-61 PSI, Vin Z(TBI) 9-13 PSI. If you have a CPI you should check voltage at the sending unit with a METER onlyyou should have 12+ volts. Using a test light could have false readings. Thanks, Korey.

Sounds like you may have crap in the fuel line.
Curious as to why you changed the gas tank?

Well The orginal fule pump died and when i took the tank down I found three pin holes around the edge of the tank. i tryed to fix them but i said i might well put a new one on to pervent it happening in the furture.

How did you check fuel pressure? Just turning the key on, or cranking? Also, you need to make sure you got the correct fuel pump!!! If the parts store gave you the wrong one, BAM, low fuel pressure!!! Korey.

Well I went back to the parts store and I have the right pump. and I told him is there anyway it could be a defective pump he said it could be so I took it back and he gave me a new one to try Im going to do it in the morning. I have another question is there a differents in the sending unit of a two and four door blazer. and The sending unit i got from the salvages yard is out of a 89 s10 blazer is there a differnes between then and 93s10 blazersending unit.

I would think it to be the same, but a side by side comparison should tell you more. Korey
