1992 CHEVY S10 RAMDOMLY LOSES POWER

My 92 Chevy S10 with a 4.3 liter loses power randomly. I checked the codes and found the map sensor, I replaced that but nothing changed. I noticed that during the power loss the passenger side injector wasn't spraying. I checked the wire from the injector to the computer for continuity and that was fine. I changed the computer but retained the prom and the cal chips, still the same problem. I know the injector is good because I swapped wires from one side to the other and that injector works fine. any ideas would be great. This one has me stumped. Thank you.

Check the injector for 12v on one wire. if good check the other wire for a ground witth the key on. The ground wire pulses from the ECM If you dont have 12v from one wire to the other but you have 12v from one wire to battery ground then be sure the ground wire is good to the computer. If you don't have 12 v at any time check for open hot wire or bad fuse. ADD 12v to the hot wire at the injector. DO NOT add to the wrong wire or you will fry the computer

SOURCE: 1987 chevy s10 2.5l tbi will not start. changed

That eliminates the crankshaft and camshaft position sensors. Have you checked the fuel injector itself for an open winding or stuck valve plunger? There should not be a steady 12 volts to the injector--if good injector, it would be spraying fuel steadily into the throttle body. But at least the engine should try to run if poorly. Take the injector out, dry it off with air, and intermittently apply 12 volts to one terminal while grounding the other. You should hear a click from inside every time you touch 12 volts. If not, replace it. If it does, it may be plugged with debris. Try blowing through it in reverse with compressed air.

92 Ford Explorer XLT runs good for 15 minutes, then suddenly starts 'chugging,' loses power, and check engine light comes on.

Have the fault codes read again and get the code numbers so that we can identify if possible the causes for your problem. IN most codes recorded there are a list of possible causes for example if he said possible crank position sensor=== there is also the cam position sensor --wiring --ECM--HO2S sensor --MAF/MAP/VAF sensors that come into the equation

1989 Chevy S10 loses power and backfires

A large vacuum leak is likely the problem. Could be the intake gaskets. If you have power brakes, are they working ok? If not, suspect the booster diaphragm has failed. Is the pcv valve in place? Any vacuum hoses not connected?

Do you have a check engine light on? Have you done an engine control module fault code test (OBD2 control system), is fuel pressure OK under a load? Has the fuel injector spider manifold (inside the throttle bore) assembly been replaced, that is a known problem.
