So when it's first fired up you can head down the road & get over 4000 RPM with no problem?

97 chey blazer hard to start

F

fishinman on Oct 03, 2007

takes 2 turns of key and wait for fuel prime to shut off then starts. If i fill it up (top off) it starts first few times with one short flick of the key. Car performance is great! I personaly replaced fuel filter, had fuel injection service done at repair shop and I also replaced cap,rotor and installed double platiunm plugs. Vehicle has 134,000 miles on it and none of the smog equipment has never been replaced. Always passed! Any ideas why hard to start. I thought fuel pump, but I'm asking here because that is expensive and a pain to do!!!Read More

IDLEING TOO FAST Year/Make/Model: 1997 CHEVROLET LUMINA/LS Body Style: SEDAN 4 DR Engine Type: 3.1L V6 MPI OHV 12V; Auto Transmission Manufactured In: CANADA I just got this car back from the transmission shop [The pump was out in the tranny] and it is ideling really fast. I'm afraid it will knock out the transmission again. Is there an adjustment under the hood to set the idle? I have a suspission the fast idle has something to do with vacuum leaks. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks HHRead More
