How do you get a new GM V6 running for the first use TDC and having the right firing order and timing Tried everything I can think and can't get it started?

Hopefully, you've put everything together properly. Consider cleaning and regapping the spark plugs. While the plugs are out, crank the engine over for a few seconds, then pour about a half teaspoon of engine oil in through each spark plug hole.

Verify that you have spark to the plugs using a spark tester or screwdriver.

If this is a fuel injected engine, check for codes. This may hint at something left unplugged. Also verify that you have fuel pressure and check all fuses.

If carbureted, make sure your fuel bowl is full by pumping the throttle and looking for fuel squirting into primary bbl.

I am having to redo the entire interior but the engine and transmission are top shelf. The cars regularly go 300K but here are some thing to watch for. The cooling system is mmmm fragile. You need to follow the instructions from Cadillac and use the treatment pills with the coolant EVERY time. Otherwise you can run into problems ranging from a bad water pump to a blown head gasket.Early northstar engines were ignored by owners,...no premium fuel,...no coolant treatment.

If the timing belt on a 2003 Cadillac CTS is skipping within days of getting it back from repairs after a severe front-end collision could the belt skipping be related to the accident?

Once the timing belt skips the engine generally doesn't run. While it is possible that a collision can cause such a problem, if the engine has not been damaged so that you can see a problem on the outside, nothing bad has usually happened. Are you sure a Cadillac has a timing belt? I thought they were gear driven.

Bleed coolant system in cadillac 4.6?

There is no need to manually bleed the coolant system on a Northstar, the system is self bleeding. The small hose on the side of the overflow tank is the self-bleed line. If, by chance, this line is obstructed, then the air will be trapped & cause overheating problems. Be careful is the plastic nipple on the side of the overflow tank as it is very weak & cracks easily.
