What are some common problems with a Chevy beretta?

Early Beretta's & Corsica's had weak coil packs that were prone to failure. The lock-up torque converter solenoid on A/T equipped cars was also weak and would fail. The 2.8 V6 did not take kindly to overheating, but other than that if taken care of they are not bad cars.

Answer #2 I have owned 4 Beretta's in the past 20 years I love em and the most problems that I have had is wet floors from the area under the lower corners of the wind shield with the hood open under the hood you will see wiring harnesses in each of these corners I found that by using a roofing sealant and pouring it over these prone areas it would stop the rain leaks but these cars also will leak on the passenger side from the a\c condensation you will just have to find and seal that one also the v6 3100 is prone after age to leak motor oil out of the distributor shaft o-ring this will take an o-ring replacement on the shaft I have also read reports of these Chevy V6 engines intake gaskets leaking antifreeze into the crank case oil sorry I'm just being honest for I know these cars well

Why does the clutch on an 88 Chevrolet Beretta have trouble going into gear in first second and reverse?

The simple thing to check is clutch adjustment. Does your clutch pedal go almost to the floor before you feel tension? If so, then a clutch adjustment(Cable style) should cure the problem. If your clutch is hydraulic and not cable, then you may have a bad slave cylinder or air in the line. Chris put in a new throw out bearing

Is it hard to get exterior body parts for a 1989 Chevy beretta?

no not really. i just pulled a body kit from a 1990 beretta to fit on my 1995. during the 8 years beretta and corsica were around Chevy didn't really change the body styles all that much. so anything u find for a beretta, whether it would be a fender or a decklid, hood, you should have no problem getting it to fit, and parts aren't hard to find. just check with your local boneyard.

the doors are the only body part that wont bolt up, pre 90 there are 2 door studs on the frame due to the seat belts being attached to the doors

Where is the low pressure AC valve on a 1995 Beretta?

Find follow the large aluminum pipe from the AC consenser to the drier cannister and from there towards the firewall. It may be beneath the intake air filter.

On my 1996 Z26, the low side valve is immediately behind the compressor. The high side valve is on top just to the passenger side of the hood latch on the line running parallel to the radiator. The low side has a blue cap and the high side has a red cap.

You have a 1991 Chevy beretta is it best to check the oil with the car on or off?

The BEST oil level reading is obtained on flat level ground, with the engine and oil still cool. As oil warms up, it expands, and can travel further up the dipstick. This could provide an inaccurate reading, since there would be slightly less oil in the engine than stated.

Why was Chevrolet Beretta dropped from production?

Sales were dwindling. And the body style was outdated compared to similar cars of 1997. It was made since 1987 and virtually no significant body changes. There were also reports that it was dropped for new safety regulations it would have to be significantly redesigned to pass. It wasnt worth it, so they dropped it and the corsica and introduced the new Malibu in 1997.

How do you remove an ignition control module on a 91 beretta?

The ignition control module is located behind the 3 coil packs on the front of the engine, beneath the front valve cover. Removing the fan shroud will help give you more room to work but it is still a tight space to work. The Coils are mounted on top of the ignition control module, so you will have to remove them from the whole assembly. If you look at the assembly behind the coils and see the wires hooking to it then look for the bolts holding them in place. Make sure to par attention to the location of the coils and wires coming from the spark plugs.

What did a holly carb list nr 7002-1 come off of?

Hi. I have one of these on my 351c 4spd and what I have found through research is they were used on small trucks and fleets of U-haul vehicles throughout the 70's . Its claimed they were used because of there economy and power when needed, I got mine off ebay and bolted it straight on no kit and off it went ....they have no choke but I find it a great carb and gives me no trouble at all and intend using it for life of my truck.

Where can I find a manual transmission for a 1994 3.1L beretta?

1994 3100 engines (and all 3100 engines, for that matter) never came mated to a 5-speed from GM. You will need to make all necessary modifications and installation yourself. Any 5-speed from an earlier V6 Beretta/Corsica (1988-1993 2.8L or 3.1L MPFI), Cavalier/Sunbird, Grand Prix, etc. will bolt up. I recommend a Getrag, if you can find one in a yard. Note: You will have issues with the SES/Check Engine light coming on, due to the ECM no longer finding the electronic component of the automatic transmission. This cannot be cleared on a 1994 or 1995 Beretta.
