Fuel filter on a chevy 1993 chevy g30 van location

I think the heads are different too.
A salvage yard or auto machine shop could probably tell you for sure.

Is your engine an automatic? If yes - The engine diagnostic should pin point the problem. Which could either be the air flow sensor, idle sensor or the throttle sensor needs replacing.

If the pick-up filter is located at the front of the tank and the tank is almost empty the pump would starve for fuel.

My 1984 G30 Diesel has two filters. One is under the van below the side door on the passenger side. The other is under the engine cover inside the Van mounted to the engine itself it is rectangular.

Hi Joe:

On 1993 Chevrolet Truck G30 1 ton Van 8cyl the Engine Control Computer is located in front seat area, driver side, mounted under driver seat.

Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I'll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using Fixya, and have a nice day.

Standing in front of the van lower front left corner I usually use grease to hold the cam rod up so I can get the new pump in

If it is fuel injected, it is an inline filter found underneath, along the frame rail. If it is carbureted, it is screwed in the carburetor where the fuel line enters it (intake fuel filter nut)

You may have a mechanical fuel pump, usually located at front lower part of engine. Follow fuel line back from Carburetor. If fuel injected, it will be in gas tank.

Just have your VIN# ready.

If vehicle was left outside or in an unheated garage, there is a strong possibility that condensation has contaminated your fuel. Easiest way to check is to remove fuel filter and pour contents into a glass jar. If you see two different layers of liquid in the jar, the bottom part is water. Replace with new filter and drop the tank. Remove sending unit. pour contents into a large container and clean out inside with clean dry rags. Remember, fuel is dangerous to work with and fumes travel pretty far on the ground. So, no open flames electrical stuff, cigarettes etc for a good perimeter around work area. Generally, you can re-use top 3/4 of fuel you removed by syphon. Don't use remainder in your vehicle. Part can be used for lawnmower etc as long as you only take the part above the water line.
