I recently got a 1993 K3500 Dump with a 454 TBI. Truck starts good, idles ok and runs ok on flat ground light thottle. It feels like its starving for fuel when I hit a hill, i went under the truck to change the fuel filter only to find out the PO felt the truck didnt need one and bypassed it.....So I am assuming the TBI unit is probaly damaged. I have no idea how to trouble shoot this thing since I work on mostly diesels. Also can I just rip the TBI setup off and throw a carb on it ? Its old enough to be exempt from emissions here and over the weight anyway so no problem with that. Just need a running reliable truck.
