V6 4.3

The 4.3 is an excellent engine. I have 167,000 miles on mine and it is still going strong. Idles like it was new. Just like with any engine you have to do the regular maintenance. I change my oil every 4,000 miles since new and now it is paying off.

I've had 2 vehicles with the 4.3 V-6. A 92 Astro van and a 95 4x4 1500 pickup. While not powerful, they were dependable motors. I believe the horsepower has increased in later years.
