Why does 1996 Corsica have intermittent problems starting?

Amateur with idea: Mine started out that way, became more often, then no sound/effect when I turned key. Eventually I had to replace my starter. Bought starter at CarQuest (you will get some money refunded when you return the old starter back to store). Mechanic charged me $60 to put it in, only took him a few hours between other customers*-*

How do you change the serpentine belt in a 1994 Chevy Corsica?

If I am not mistaken, one would find a diagram of the belt's pulley system pasted on a sticker in the engine compartment usually either on the top pulley or next to the hood release in front of the radiator. If not, one should notice grooved surfaces for the pulleys that come in contact with the inside of the belt, and smooth surfaces for the outside. TO REMOVE/INSTALL, find the pulley attached to a spring-loaded arm. This pulley releases the tension on the belt by using a wrench(crescent works best) placed on the center bolt which will not turn but instead will help move that spring-loaded arm. .

Also instead of using the wrench on the bolt itself on the end of the idler bracket (there is a square end near the radiator) you will have lots more leverage to work with but one of the drawbacks is that it is a little difficult to do this by ones self.

How do you fix the linkage between the key lock cylinder and the ignition switch on a 1995 Chevy Corsica?

If the car will start, but will not turn off, the gear that connects to the ignition switch rod is probably broken. When you take the steering column apart, you will be able to see if it is broken. If it is, when you buy the rod, you get the gear with it as an assembly. If you are not familiar with the working of a steering column, you may want to leave this one to a pro., it can get aggravating to line everything up right.
