1995 Safari
Question:
‘95 safari doesn’t idle Surging…I’d take it to a gaage and ask for senser scan.
Response:
This was the symptoms of the EGR valve problem that was a recall on them. GM would also replace or reprogram the chip while it was there. Go to your GMC dealer and see if yours is in the range for the factory recall I got mine in without the notice through the field manager. If it was already done I guess it’s up to you. I had my injectors replaced without much difference, after the egr fix all seemed O.K.

The Vortec CPFI systems have a tendency to clog up sometimes. The fuel-additive injector cleaners are generally pretty ineffective. If that is the problem, you might need to have it hooked up to a cleaning system (I believe that GM’s setup pumps in a mixture of gas and Top Engine Cleaner). Then again, it could be some other cause. How much diagnosis has anyone done on it? — Robert Hancock Saskatoon, SK, Canada Home Page: http://www.roberthancock.com/

Hi, I have a 1995 Safari van and have had a terrible time with the idle. It seems to stick and rev quite high at times and other times it does not idle at all. I have had it at the garage numerous times and they are unable to fix it. I have been told that it is jsut a build up of carbon which then plugs the fuel injectors, causing the computer to compensate with a fast idle. I have used all the additives I can find to clean the fuel injectors, but nothing seems to work. I am desperate for suggestions. I really like the van, but am getting a little concerned. Please respond to me directly with any suggestions. Thank you in advance.
