HHHEEELLLPPP!!!
I need some directions on how to install the intake gasket set. On a 96 4.3 v6 blazer. Never worked on the motor. Just bought it and need to know how to get to the gaskets.

RE: HHHEEELLLPPP!!!
Got a Haynes or Chilton manual?
Upper intake or lower intake gaskets?
Upper would be easier.
Simple instructions, remove everything in the way.
Which includes but not limited too.
Wiring harness, vacuum hoses, spark plug wires, and upper intake.
If your after the lower intake gaskets (to heads) above plus. Rad hoses and distributor.
Got any engine experience?

Search works wonders!

When you do it, use the Fel-pro MS98002T gasket set. The gaskets have been updated to a metal frame which will outlast the plastic versions.

I recently replaced the one-piece TBI intake manifold on my '91 Blazer just ot get clear EGR passages.That is done just like the earlyChevy V8 engines.
Before you remove the distributor, remove the distrbutor cap andbump the engine over until the rotor is pointing towards the firewall . Mark the firewall at that location.Reinstall the distributor with the rotor pointing at the mark you made. That will get your engine within a couple of degrees of where it is supposed to be soit will start. My '91 Blazer does not have a crank sensor so the timing is likelyset differently on mine that onyour '96 Blazer so I don't know if that helps or not.
