Your oil cap on the engine block will have it printed.

First step is to disconnect the battery terminals remove the plastic cover on the top of the engine Next remove the Air filter assembly from the throttle body

there are 6 10mm screws holding down the intake manifold on the top of the engine.

Lift the intake manifold up and out after clearing all hoses.

the starter is located on the transmission side of the V portion on the engine block.

Yes I know its a hard job but total time was 2 hrs to replace the starter

Do everything in rev order and your all set.

oviously you have a vacume-leak intake to modulator-valve/or bad modulator-valve,check for leaks/replace modulator.this device controls kickdown-band apply pressure,with engine vacume

The cooling temp sensor for the ecm is located under the fill tank located on the pass. side fender well (the black plastic tank with the rad. cap).

Your A/C needs to be charged.

Buy a kit at Wal-Mart or auto parts store comes with instructions

unplug battery so that the system will have to rel;earn itself. unplug neg

7.5 quarts

Under dash on top of steering column

i own a 1993 caddy eldorado and i had the same issue i had it towed and they said my antitheft module in the trunk went bad!they purchased a new module and soddered it in my trunk ( not sure where) and the bill was 120$

Disconnect your battery for a couple minutes to let the system reset. Should do the trick.

Rotors may be out of "round" (lateral runout) and need to be resurfaced or replaced

If you put low profile tires on them they fit, but they may or may not rub depending on the weight you're going to put in your vehicle. In other words with 4 good sized people riding in your car they will rub. You're best bet is to put some 20's on it....that's what I have on my 98 eldo and I never had a problem with them.

I believe the starter motor sits in the galley under the intake manifold.

the cooling fan relays are behind and below the center of the radiator

Yes, Placerville, CA is in Eldorado county

If ur O2 sensors on 2 arent picing up signal to ecm then they r bad or u may have a faulty catyletic convertor

Fill it up with Freon

DISCONNECT THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE TO RESET THE COMPRESSOR- RECONNECT THE CABLE . PLEASE USE A GAGE WHEN ADDING THE FREON. YOU SHOULD HAVE ABOUT 5 MINUETS TO SET EVERY THING UP BEFORE IT TURNS OFF AGAIN.

should be fine, they share the same body style:

Very possible. Also the head(s) may be cracked. They should have been checked for warpage and cracks when they were removed when the job was first done.

i have the same problem on my 97 eldorado. the transmission is too close to the bolt to get a socket around it. you would have to take the whole engine out or take it into a repair shop and be sure to tell them exactly what the problem is so that they dont spend a bunch of time looking for something else wasting your money.

I had this problem with my Villager and continue to have it with my Quest. The Villager went back to the dealer who told me that there were no problems that they could find but it was a common problem with the Quest and Villager. When I need to use the fluid I press and release the switch until the pump kicks on and the fluid sprays. It's a pain but it always comes on after 30 secs. of working the switch. There is a really good Nissan mechanic on allexperts.com who answers 5 questions a day. Sometimes you may have to wait until midnight to get a question in. I also had this same problem with my 97 Quest. It turned out to be a combination of two issues. #1: Crud in the lines, had to use compressed air and a little bit of patience to blow out and rinse the lines a couple of times. # 2 the switch on the steering column as you already know is intermittent. Since I have other issues with the van that are higher on the priority list I've learned where the "sweet spot" is on the switch to get it to work. I simply press in on the switch ( like your supposed to) then gently twist back and forth as if your changing wiper speed until the washer pump energizes. hope this helps.

I just went through this problem and the fix was relatively easy.. but expensive. First make sure the fan motor is still good by running jumper wires to the fan motor plug .. positive on the right pole. If the fan turns on, it's probably the blower motor control module which is a small panel on the top of the blower box with two plugs on it's top. Remove the 3 screws, unplug the 2 cables and lift out the module. Install and reconnect the new module. I removed the negative battery terminal first to avoid any possible shorting. Next as an extra precaution I did a computer reset.

Reconnect the battery terminal, put the car in park with emergency brake on. Start the car and let it idle ..NO ACCELERATION for 15 minutes or when the engine temperature reaches 200. Next, put your foot down on the brake pedal and hold it for 3 minutes as the engine idles. Now, with your foot still on the brake, put the transmission in "Drive" and turn the A/C control to "auto". Let it run another 3 minutes, then shut the engine off and the car in "Park". When you restart the car the computer will be reset, and all your electronic information panel will be reset. Your gas "miles to go before empty" light should read "LO". After the car is driven a while the computer will update all the information
