REad your owner's manual/. 7 QUARTS TOTAL PAUL G it should be 7 and one half quarts to fill to the middle of the range.
The oil capacity of the 4.6L 32 valve Northstar in a 1997 Cadillac is 7.5 quarts.
No it does not. The only engine in the 1988 Cadillac De Ville was the 4.5 Digital fuel injected engine. The 4.5 engine is a 2 valve per cylinder overhead valve (not overhead cam) engine. It was a good engine but not in the power category as the Northstar.
you dont. a cadillac tech does
Under top engine cover that says 32 valve Northstar between both cylinder heads. Good luck
waterpump or radiator hose
check the fuel pump
The starter on a 1993 cadillac assuming that it has a 32 valve northstar the starter is underneath the intake manifold
no it does't
This particular engine has been noted for its quality. As long as it is correctly maintained then it should last around 200,000 miles before any remedial work is required.
Keeps engine coolant from going through heater core when it is not needed.
Assuming it's a Northstar, it is inserted into the valve cover nearest the firewall on the passenger's side near the coil pack.
In a word, no. The Northstar engine is a DOHC 4 valve-per-cylinder engine, while the LSx is a traditional pushrod engine. The ports of the northstar are wider to accommodate 2 intake valves, the ports on an LS are narrower and tall feeding a single, large intake valve. The heads on a Northstar are wider and therefore the valley is narrower. The starter on a Northstar is located in the valley. All of these attributes dictate the design of the Northstar intake manifold which, looking similar on top, is very different than an LS manifold on the bottom.
