Chevy Cavalier

Some models do not have a dipstick. There is a plug in the back of the tranny that you pull. with the vehicle running in park and the fluid warm, the fluid should be level with the hole. It will drain out if there is to much. The fill is ontop, there is a red plug that is hand screwed in.

there are two fuse boxes. one under the hood, on the drivers side between firewall and battery. the other is inside the car, right behind the dash. you can access it when you open the door.

Remove the retaining ring from the top of your 1999 Chevy Cavalier ignition switch. Slide the ignition switch out and remove the wiring harness from the end of it.

its located behind where the large upper coolant hose connects into the engine un bolt that and bam thermostat... just as a note do this prior to driving anywhere it'll be hot otherwise.

locate leak , if it is close to a union such as a clamp or going from rubber to metal line, try tightening clamp or cutting a small length off rubber hose and applying a new clamp

The z24 models have a 2.4L DOHC engine.If you look at the engine,on the passenger side it is flat.A chain goes all the way around that part on the inside.The chain turns two camshafts(intake and exhaust) and the water pump. So,the answer is "no" it has a timing chain.

The front turn signals on my 2002 Beetle Turbo S can be popped out by carefully inserting a flat screw driver on inside the lower edge and pressing down on the metal spring clip that holds the signal lamp assembly in. It will then pivit up and out. It's pretty simple, but be careful not to scratch your paint.

It is located in the washer fluid reservoir.

Usually a timing problem. However, it could be the way the carb is tuned or a vacuum leak. Start by checking your timing and looking for vacuum leaks.

It cuts the horsepower usage down to let you better control your car when its raining or in rough conditions. I think what your talkin about is the tcs

This is a quick answer. Its above the starter going into the side of the block. (front side of the engine) Disconnect the battery. Remove the starter. Remove the wore plug into the sensor. The sensor has 1 bolt holding it in. Remove the bolt, you may have to wiggle the sensor at the base a bit as you pull it out. Replace, and make sure it is pushed in all of the way. Replace the bolt, wire plug, starter, reconnect the battery. If you have ever removed or replaced a starter this is cake, that is the hardest part of the job. Rich

With any gaskets, you have to scrape them off carefully with a scraping tool. Dont gauge the metal. Then go to a store and buy a new gasket for your year/make/model/engine size. if you want to be sure it will seal, get some gasket sealant for an extra dollar.

I have found that a Chilton or Haynes Auto repair manual for the year and make of the vehicle (available at your local library)are an excellent source of information. They are quite informative on most parts replacement and how to troubleshoot.

if you need to find tdc than put a screwdriver in the #1 cylinder hole and turn over by hand until the screwdriver is about to go down or up,you will find the spot in the crankshaft were you can turn it slightly and the screwdriver will go up a bit or down.

Press the set button one time. Then to set the hour you press the seek back button to adjust. For the minutes side, you would press seek forward. Then when done press Set again.

With a car this new, one shouldn't have to be worried about spark plugs at this time. Check the owner's manual for the scheduled maintenance.

But, if you are still wondering,

On a four cylinder engine, the plugs will be right in the front at the exhaust manifold.

A V6 will have three in front, and three on the back side of the engine.

If you have four Hamsters in your cage and it says "ECOTEC 2.2" on the top of the engine then the cattle prods for those furry little devils are located right underneath where it says 'ECOTEC 2.2". Make sure you have your metric sockets handy 10mm to remove plate and 16mm deep with extension to remove the plugs. You will need to either loosen or remove the holding bracket over the top of the engine, the only bar over the engine, since the plate will need to travel a couple of inches to clear and pull out ( though honestly I just bent the bugger out of the way)<--- this does work. I strongly recommend using the old "peice of rubber tubing" technique, since the plugs are straight down in their little shute, and I have NEVER cross threaded a plug doing it this way. Remember,snug not tight.

If you're wondering why the spark plugs aren't the same, Ac Delco obsoleted the old ones 41-981, now 41-103 is the replacement, you SHOULD replace them with the same spark plug since the Ecotec engine is sensitive. You can use tweezers to get the spark plugs out too, if you don't have any "rubber tubing" just hanging around the house.

Additionally, When he mentioned bending the harness over the valve cover to get the plate off of the motor, that does work, genius. I work at a car lot and change plugs often, on my Cavalier to remove them if you don't have the hose- Get a 5/8" Deep Spark Plug Removal Socket; you can get these at any auto parts store, Walmart, etc. It is a deep socket with a hex pattern on the back that a 3/8" drive fit in. They are unique in that they have a rubber or foam gasket inside that hugs the spark plug for easy removal. Provided they are securely in the socket and you don't fling it around, the plug will remain in upside down. Also a good extension is necessary, one that is a foot or less so that you can drop it into the holes where the plugs are in. I tend to like to tighten them snug and then a slight quarter turn more, if you are like me, be sure to use a special spark plug anti-seize grease that you can get at the store as well. On all aluminum head engines you should use this. Also if your coil boots are still okay but are starting to not seal over the plug as they used to, squirt a little bit of tune-up grease on them to help keep moisture out.

if its when you are breaking it is possible it could be a rotor if you hear like a roaring or grinding noise coming from that side also could be a wheel bearing

you probably broke the little piece of plistic in the black box the actual opens the latch. This could have been done by slaamming the trunk. I have the same problem. I super glued it once and then broke it again when my heavy bike rack was on the trunk.

My upper motor mount was bad and it was the cause of the thump. It happened when I let off the accelerator, turned a corner and accelerated, or just any time the rpm's changed. Open the hood, have someone start the motor while you watch the upper motor mount. If the motor jumps a lot and clunks it's probably the motor mount. Replace it yourself for about $60 to $100. Let GM replace it for about $350. Its a 1 hour job for you or them. Hope this helps. If the thump occurs on bumpy roads it could be a bad strut. A simple way to check this is to rock the right front of the car up and down by pressing your weight down on the hood near the wheel well until you have a good rhythm going, then let go and if the car car continues to rock up and down more than once or twice then the strut is worn. To more accurately check the motor mount watch it while someone holds the brake while shifting between reverse and drive while the motor is running, listen especially for the familiar thumping sound coupled with your observation. If the sound is occurring when driving, especially while turning or cornering, then the most likely cause is the C.V. axle. They are relatively easy to change, but it would be more like a loud clicking sound in this case. The price is usually around $100 dollars for a new one verses 20 - 35 for a used one. I would recommend a new one if you expect to drive your car for some time yet. You can buy a step by step repair manual for around $16 that would cover all of the above repair procedures.

No, you cannot get a tag or register a car without the title and proof of ownership. This document is required throughout the U.S.

Remove the alternator restraint bracket screws. Next, using a 15mm wrench turn the tensioner bolt located on the left side of the engine block (The side where the pulley assembly is). Turn just enough to push back and down. The tensioner should move loosening the belt and freeing the tension from the alternator. Then, remove all of the screws securing the alternator. Disconnect the electric ground cable from the rear of the alternator. Remove the alternator. Installing the new one is basically the reverse of the uninstall. Remember****** Don't fight with the belt. If it's too tight to put around the alternator loosen the tensioner. If you can't get the belt all the way over the alternator pulley, put it as far as you can and stabilize it with a pry bar. While holding the belt partially on the alternator pulley with the pry bar, have someone responsible bump the ignition. Do not turn the car on! Barely turn the key till the starter tries to turn. The belt should have jumped on now.

Remove the wiring harness from the 1996 Chevy Cavalier blower motor. Remove the blower motor retaining bolts. Remove the blower motor fan. Reverse the process to install the new blower motor.

Back side of the engine near where the transmission mounts to the engine. You have to jack up the car and crawl under it to see it. There are two sensors there.....the crankshaft sensor and the knock sensor.
