How much should a ASE mechanic charge in labor to replace a fuel pressure regulator in a 2000 Blazer ? We have a 4.3 "w". thx folks

Flat rate time on just regulator replace is around 2 hrs.

But other test that go with regulator replacement.
Computer electrical Diagnostic and fuel pressure test is around 1.5 hrs
Injector balance test another 1/2 hr.


Has it been proper tested for a bad fuel pressure regulator problem and is them test included in the regulator replacement time?

If so you could be up to 4 hrs on it.

Test included in labor time. Trying to decide if this is something I want to tackle myself. thx MT

It is not a real hard job.
Good repair manual and a few tools will do it.
Check S-10 forum for how to on it.

Good Luck
And let us know how it goes.
