There can be a number of things going on when the engine quits or won't start when it's warm. One is a problem with the condenser related to the ignition points. Also, you should inspect the tightness of the fasteners since metal parts expand when they get hot. Another possible problem is that the ignition coil many need to be replaced.
nope, at the crank
The window crank slips because the regulator gear has most likely stripped. You will need to remove the outer door panel to verify for sure but unless the crank is broken (It would fall off if it was) the regulator is stripped
buy a service manual and follow the service steps for crank removal .
behind the crank pully
This what you are looking for?>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
No this will not work. Crank shafts are different
Saturn Shop Foreman here, old school GM window crank remover or use a shop rag behind the crank to grab the tangs of the clip and pop it out, it will fly like the wind if you don't watch out!
Lock up, No but a bad crank sensor will prevent the engine from starting.
The crank sensor is behind the starter. Remover the starter at the back of the engine and you will see the sensor
The V6 in the Saturn VUE is sideways (FWD) vs. the version used in the Cadillac Catera (RWD). On the Saturn, the crank sensor is mounted on the front side of the engine, sort of near where the trans mounts to the engine. Pretty easy to change.
No,it is right hand thread.
behind the window crank handle, there is a horseshoe shaped pin, pop that pin off and the crank handle should pull right off.
