Spray Pattern Test

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 10 other vehicles, including the 1997 GMC Yukon, 1997 GMC Suburban, 1997 GMC Pickup, 1997 GMC Cab & Chassis, and 1997 GMC C3500 HD. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The injector nozzles used with this system have several features that make pattern testing difficult. These features include longer nozzle overlap, greater pintle-to-body clearances and an internal wave washer between injector nozzle nut and injector. Typical injector nozzle tester cannot deliver fuel with sufficient velocity to obtain proper spray patterns. DO NOT  replace injector nozzle(s) based on spray pattern.
