The Active Fuel Injector Tester (AFIT), essential tool CH-47976, is designed to test fuel injectors on port and direct injected engines going back to the 1996 model year. As new vehicle applications have been introduced, the kit has grown to include a number of available adapter cables, including for SIDI engine fuel systems and 2001-2010 Duramax diesel engines.

The AFIT Kit, CH-47976, (Fig. 9) was an essential tool for U.S. Tier 1, 2, 3, and 4 dealerships only. Tier 5 dealerships may order the tool at gmtoolsandequipment.com. All Canadian dealerships received the AFIT Kit, CH-47976, as an essential tool.
