I have a 2000 chevy blazer 4x4 4.3 liter with California emmisions. I
> am having a problem with a tip in hesitation.

You didn't say how many miles are on the truck. However, I'd suggest the following to check:


EGR Valve O2 Sensors (there are two, AFAIK) Fuel Injectors


This is what I remember being the weak parts of the 4.3L engine. There may be more but that's what I remember. The vacumn leak may or may not even be an issue.

Thanks for the reply. The vehicle has 96k miles on it.

And when is the last time you changed the FI units?

Is there a check engine light? Regardless you can take the truck into AutoZone and they should run codes for you - maybe there's a point to start from.

As of right now there are no codes or pending codes. Do you think I should just keep driving it until I get a check engine light? I have not touched the fuel injectors at all but I would like to at least check them to see if they are ok.

Well, my list still stands from above - EGR Valve, O2 Sensors or FI. Those three will cause teh problems listed.
