What is the oil capacity of a Chevy 3.4L engine?
That would depend on the car it is in, because of the size of the oil pan.
Examples:
95 CHEVROLET CAMARO 3.4L 6-cyl Engine, without filter..........4.0 qts
95 CHEVROLET MONTE CARLO 3.4L 6-cyl Engine, without filter........5.1 qts
95 CHEVROLET LUMINA 3.4L 6-cyl Engine, without filter.......5.1 qts
Hope This Helps.
compress the suspension and measure. Fully flex the suspension and measure. You will be measuring the length between the two shock mounts. At that point you can order whatever shock you need based off of the length and not vehicle specific.
Where is the cigarette fuse for Chevrolet Captiva?
There isn't one. Perhaps you mean "power port." Most new cars are not fitted with "cigarette lighters" anymore. They do however have similar ports intended for the powering of electronic devices, and that fuse is located in the fuse panel, #53, lower row, center, and is a 20 amp fuse. Number 52 to the left is a 15 amp, and 46 above it is a 10 amp. There is no fuse positioned to the right of it.The interior fuse panel is on the "hump" on the front passenger side of the vehicle.

Where is the caster-camber adjustment on a 2001 Chevy truck?
I have a maunual that states, "Camber and castor can be adjusted, but only after an adjustment kit at GM dealers, is installed. My manual is 1988 thru 1998, All Models and 1999 and 2000, C/K Classics, 2WD and 4WD. I also experience this when I had new tires installed and asked them to align it. They couldn't and I was quoted about $200.00 dollars labor to install the kit. This could very easily apply to your 2001 Chevy.

What causes a small ticking sound to come from inside the engine block?
To someone who is in-experienced, the sound may seem to come from within the engine "block" but may be coming from any part of the engine. A few things can cause this, and only an experienced mechanic can tell them apart by the way they sound. The possibilties are a loose connecting rod because of a worn rod bearing where it connects to the crankshaft, a loose wrist pin (connects the connecting rod to the piston), A poorly adjusted valve or rocker arm, and some engines (chevy small block for example) use a push rod between the fuel pump and the camshaft which can make a tapping noise if the return spring in the fuel pump is weak. If the rod bearing or wristpin are the cause, you are in for an engine rebuild. The valves can be re-adjusted, and the fuel pump can be replaced. Carl King http://www.classiccarauto.com

What causes smoke to come out when a car is started?
The most common cause is worn valve guides. Any oil sitting on top of the valve will run down the valve stem while the car is not running. When you start the car, the oil that has accumulated at the valve seat immediately gets sucked into engine and burned off when the engine starts. This results in the blue puff of smoke coming out of your tail pipe which goes away after the motor has been running a while. Carl King http://www.classiccarauto.com

How do you identify small block Chevy heads by the symbols on the end?
A rectangle, is the old 4 barrel head, junk. That same rectangle with a triangle on top of it, late model smog head, junk, again. Double humps, or camel backs, are either a 461, 461X, or, a 462. The preferred head of the sixties, and early 70's. Could be 1.94, or 2.02 intake, 1.60 exhaust, and decent sized runners, that can be ported way out. Now, the same double humps, but with alternator bracket holes, will be a 186/041, casting. Same as double humps, but more rare because of the threaded holes. Both of these castings have a small combustion chamber, for higher compression. The 441, a laterr version of the 186/041 is just that. The same, but with a larger combustion chamber, to lower compression. They have the threaded holes, but a half of a triangle. Then, there is the one with the holes, and just a point. These were never installed on any car from the factory. They are a race head. The 292 "turbo" head. 2.06 intake, and massive ports, with a small combustion chamber.
There is a problem in the Electronic Spark Timing System.
1993 3.3L V6 (6-204) - Solved intermittent "Code 42 - electronic spark timing" issue by replacing Mass Air Flow sensor, after checking all wires in harness (and replacing some) between the ECM and ICM, checking all connections, and replacing all the other sensors. All work prior to replacing MAF sensor improved performance but did NOT solve intermittent Code 42 problem. Never got a "MAF sensor" Code 34.
If a big block Chevy on alcohol is tearing up flex plates and starters what do you do?
ALCOHOL=HIGH COMPRESSION=STARTUP COUNTER-TORQUE
Something to consider is the engine startup counter-torque and the ignition system you're using. You may need a separate ignition switch and starter button. You leave the ignition switch off, spin the engine, and once it's up to speed, you hit the ignition switch. This will allow the starter to spin the engine without the counter-torque. High compression engines and Nitro-methane engines are especially succeptable to startup counter-torque. You may also be able to delay the engine timing until you start the engine, then return it to its' correct timing.
Starter is not disengaging properly..... maybe a bad bendix drive or your ignition switch return spring is weak or you have the wrong flex plate or starter.
The mesh between the pinion gear on the starter and flywheel needs to be checked. You can sometime pry out the starter drive into mesh with a screwdriver. Or you may have to remove the return spring located behind the solenoid, then reinstall the starter on the block. This allows you to pull out the drive to check mesh. The backlash between two of the teeth should be about .020-.030". Shims are available to adjust this. Just make sure the teeth don't clash.
Some aftermarket starters have mounting blocks that are mismachined and will never work right. Some ring gears have been found to be welded onto flexplates off-center. creating a wobble.
Use the remote Ford-type starter solenoid wired to a separate ignition switch. To make this work, the starter motors solenoid has to have a bypass link or wire added from the BAT terminal to the start terminal. This makes the starter hot and only needs power from the remote mounted Ford solenoid to engage.
Just check your timing, you should be able to retard the timing some and this will help. Also what compression ratio are you running in this?
Alcohol burns faster, and does not need the spark set so far ahead like gass does.
If one of the above doesn't fix it, check for a balance problem.. Both flex-plate and balancer. Did you check the run-out on the flex-plate as you accelerated the engine?
I have heard of cranks where the surface isn't square with the c/l on crank.
