Depends on which motor you're referring to
The Oldsmobile Cutlass Cierra window lift motor is located inside of the door. Each window is equipped with a window lift motor.
No you can not put any Oldsmobile motor into a 1985 Cutlass Supreme. Each car has a motor that was designed specifically for that vehicle. So if you need to replace the motor in a 1985 Cutlass Supreme, you need to find the specific motor for that vehicle.
Yes
307 c.i.
Depends on the year and bodystyle
it is locatated to at the right side rear of motor, next to the throttle body and the IAC valve, and tps sensor.
My 1986 cutlass supreme w/307 was smoking bad, and I tore the motor down and the rings were shot.
The knock sensor just advances and retards the engine timing only. If there is a noise in the engine then you have engine are valve train problems. The knock sensor will not make the engine knock.
Motor
the motor could pre-detonate or "knock" that can cause damage
A knock sensor detects engine knock in the motor(aka pinging, detonation, or uncontrolled explosions. it basically means the motor is about to blow up or potentially could.) the second part to a knock sensor is that it keeps the ignition timing as advanced as possible to make the most power without making engine knock. So if you have a bad knock sensor or have a check engine light form a knock sensor your car will be slower. this is when your car goes into LIMP mode which is basically a preset running condition which is safe for the motor.
