Best Answer

The grounding strap on the fuel tank has come loose or rusted away.

To test this theory, take a wire and hold it against the bare metal of the gas tank and the bare metal of the frame of the car while someone watches the fuel gauge (car must be running).

Most likely, there is a small hole in the plastic float in your gas tank's sending unit. As the float fills with fuel,it sinks to the bottom of the tank and sends an "empty" signal to the gas gauge. You're gonna need a new fuel pump. Scott

What would be the best color for a 1984 cutlass supreme?

Picking the right color for the Cutlass really has alot of different things to take into consideration. Things like the interior color, if it has the vinyl top the types of wheels you have on it and of course your own personal likes. Just remember, if this is a car that you are going to drive, make it an expression of your personality. Even if you paint it white, make sure the color shows who you are.


How do you change a oxygen sensor in a 1991 Oldsmobile cutlass supreme?

The O2 sensor is located on the rear exhaust- driver's side. Easiest to get to if you rotate the engine forward and away from the firewall. I have used regular wrenches even though they sell O2 sensor wrenches.
