Default Need help with flexfuel conversion 99 Blazer

Hi all,

has someone installed a flexfuel kit on a 99 Blazer? Right now i have a problem with the fuel injector connector. Does anyone know the official type of connector or maybe the usage of the pins, colorcode of the wires? As it looks right know i could only get a FFK with 6 single connectors here in Germany.

Thanx 4 all comments

You are going to have a very difficult time getting the flow necessary to run ethanol blended fuels out of the standard injectors. They just do not flow enough to get to the recommended AFR.

If you really wanted to go this route, I would suggest trying to find the 4.3L marine intake which uses bosch style injectors that are not part of a proprietary injection spider like the SCFI motor you currently have. This allows you to change the injectors for higher flow rates as well as gives you the individual connections like your kit most likely requires.

As far as color codes go:

Ok, thanx.

I ll try it. I have know that one german companyis usinga kit without changing the injectors. But they do not sell these kits. The only way getting this kit is letting them installing it. And guess what, its very expensive....

Thank you again
