How does a cooling system work on a car?
the water pump moves coolant through the entire system. this means the engine, radiator, heater core, and any other hoses or components that require coolant. the radiator is where most heat is transfered into the atmosphere by air flow from the car moving, or an auxilllary fan. the cooling system also contains a thermostat. this is a mechanical object placed at a radiator hose and the engine block. when coolant reaches a certain temperature, a spring on the t-stat causes the valve to open allowing coolant flow to complete.

The trouble with this one is you'll need to use pop-rivets and I suppose you'll need a special tool for that.... If you still want to do it yourself, get a Chilton's repair manual for GM cars for these years. Amazon or Ebay should have them and cheap. They do have the instructions for replacing that motor.

How do you remove headlight switch from your 1967 skylark?
First disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery then you need to gain access to the back of the headlight switch with your hand and locate a small spring loaded button on the switch, the button would be found close to the front of the switch. By pressing this button you will be able to remove the headlight knob with the shaft attached. Once you have removed the knob and shaft you can unscrew the nut from the outside of the dash that holds the switch in place. Once you have removed that nut you can wiggle the switch down far enough to easily unplug the wire connector from the switch.
I would call a GM dealer's service center or a brake shop to find out for sure, but I know that if the ABS system isn't working, your brakes won't be affected.

Why will the power windows on your 1997 Buick Skylark go down but not up?
The tracks that the window rollers ride in are guncked up with old lube and dirt. I just cleaned the tracks out and lubed them with a light grease and my windows worked again. The window motor heats up and quits is the problem. If you don't attend to this you will have to spend up to $300.00 per motor plus labor to replace.
Probably because they're in the first stage of conking out entirely. If they go back up or partway up after you let them "cool off" for a few minutes, that's the problem. Replacing the motors is the only fix, there's no repairing them. But parts stores should have them.
