I have no experience with the kit. You may want to start a new thread on it to see if someone else does. If you noticed an improvement than the MAF should be replaced since cleaning it doesn't seem to help. I would try the junkyard for one if you are wanting to get out cheap lol. Chances are it will be ok. They are usually pretty robust sensors.

well it appears that the changing of the MAF made a bit of a difference, but not 100% ok. It still seems like I have a skip of some sort. I think I might try to change my plug wires again and see if I may have received a faulty set. Power is there (better), but still seems like small misses along the way.

I know that the Blazers are finicky with every other sensor being ACDelco, but do the wire sets matter? ACDelco is 133.00 YIKES!! I figured I could go with a decent quality less expensive set.


Thanks

Actually the professional grade motocraft plug wires are a very good set. They are actually built to better spec than delco. Have you had the exhaust pressure tested yet?

my blazer was acting just like yours changed plugs cap n rotor all ac delco it ran better but not right wires looked good but i never ohmed them out someone put cheap wires on it and after ohming them out found a bunch of bad ones i should have known better none should read over 20k ohms the wire will break down at the plug from heat hence cheap wires easy inexpensive test with ohm meter i replaced them with the autolite pro series 40 bucks and its running great now

So the truck has been running ok, but it still has a "bounce" at idle and especially when in gear. I did recently do the old Seafoam treatment to the intake and had the injectors cleaned.....no major difference. I thought it was going to be fine the way it was, but while comin to work today, it seemed to drive like there was some drag....like I was pulling a trailer.

Cannnot seem to get this thing sorted out. one thing I did notice recently however, the vacuum line from the top of the intake to one of the splitters near the reservoir has some "oil" on it, also the brake booster has some oil from this line on it. Furthermore, the hose was replaced by me with new and now it seems soft and has some "creases" in it like it is being sucked flat. Any thoughts?


Thanks
