well, oil pumps are power by the engine, when the engine is at idle its at its lowest rpm when you step on the gas the rpms get higher therefore your oil pump works faster delivering oil at a faster rate to keep up. oil pumps got a valve call the pressure relief valve and that valve maintains proper oil pressure at all times. if the valve fails you may experience those kinds of problems. it could also be that the rotors or gears on your pump are worn out beyon manufactures specs. and they not providing proper pressure. another answer to your problem would be low oil level and or faulty sensor.
replace the shift cable
1992, v6, pont. sunbird, quit running going down road, everything is still working and okay but won't fire up
Compressor not running, blown fuse, low of freon.
on the side of the engine block on the driver side. screws in. has 3 wires coming out of the connector running to the fan.
When these cars came out, they did not have the day time running light safety feature. This feature has been installed since the car came out.
Key on, engine not running: 53-55 p.s.i....
There's a turn signal or running light out on that side, either front or rear. Turn on signal, get out and look. If both turn signals are working, chances are its the running light.
no but it can stop the fuel pump from running.
I think, and I THINK it is under the plastic cover on the left side of the engine, at least it is with a 2.0 4 cylender motor. You have to remove the belt covor than the belt, than the sensor should be visible. I say this because i read it in a Pontiac manual, that plus there are wires running in to the covor. Hope it helps
There is a pressure swithch in the line that keep the compressor from running if there is not enough Freon in the system. You wouldn't have any power at the compressor if you are low.
You don't. It has no distributor. The only thing to make sure of is that the timing chain is installed correctly....(if you've removed it) and that the plug wires are routed correctly. If it's running poorly you'll have to look at other reasons besides the timing.
Day time running lights?
