sure, throw up a few pics of the engine compartment and the sensors your wondering about, and not all 95's came with vortecs. are you absolutely sure its carbureted? it could be TBI (throttle body injection) two injectors at the throttle opening.

The TBI system looks very simmilar to carborators, they still had the round style air filters. Though the 1994-1995 year range for blazers was a bit sketchy on what engine went with what. And when you say you have sensors (laying around) what does that mean, are they still connected by connecters and are laying around in the engine bay? or are they installed and you're just wandering what they are?

What a hack Job! it was a fuel injected 4.3 but some shaddy backyard mechanic swapped the intake over to one that accepts a carburator. So you actually have a carburburated 2nd gen Blazer, truly one of a kind, but not a good one of a kind. all i can say is WOW! in the first pic the round connector closest to your thumb goes to the A/C accumulator Pressure sensor. Also in the first pic the flat connector by your index finger is the Alternator connector. In the second to last pic, the red connector goes to the EVAP purge Soloneiod. And the other flat one in the upper left hand of the pic appears to go to the ac compressor, all of these "items" have been removed and you will not find a place to connect them unless you swap back over to the original style Intake and sensors which might be hard becasue you dont know how far the previous owner dug into this motor, my personal advise - sell the truck and get a truck or car that doesnt have 10+ connectors laying around. god knows what he did to trick the computer to ignore the sensors he removed....or the rest of the truck for that matter...


paperclips and rubber bands......

A q-jet on a 4.3L v6! Now I've seen it all. That is a mess.

As said, you really won't be able to get things sorted without swapping back to the CPI intake, fuel system, etc. I'm not even sure how they are regulating the fuel pressure down from the ~60psi that the old CPI setup required to the 6-8psi that the q-jet needs.

Sell it ASAP. I guess as long as you dont have to get an annual emmisions inspection, you *could* keep it...........but we both know that you would get far without a inspection sticker for ver long. And as long as your able to keep that carb going, becasue im sure its gonna be hard finding a mechanic who knows how properlly adjust and fix that carb once it starts to act up....
