My K2500 Suburban is powered by a vortec big block, aka 7.4 vortec, or L29. Probably one of the most common problems with the 7.4 vortec is a hard start condition caused by leaking fuel injectors and the fuel pressure regulator. In this video I'll replace the faulty parts with new, but instead of just using stock parts, we're increasing the capacity of the injectors by almost double. I'm using some FAST injectors and an OEM fuel pressure regulator, and HP Tuners to make the adjustments inside the computer.
