Chevy Impala

This is for a 1997+ model Chevrolet Prizm. First, disconnect your battery and remove it (negative lead first, positive second). This will come in handy later. Jack your vehicle up and mount it on jack stands. Now remove the two splash shields on the underside. Your starter will be mounted on the forward section of the engine, roughly centered. From the underside you should be able to remove the bottom mounting bolt and disconnect the two electrical connections (One is mounted on a threaded terminal post, the other is a molex-style connector). The top mounting bolt is a little tricker, but made markedly easier having earlier removed your battery. It is on the reverse side from the other mounting bolt and has quite a bit of clutter around it. A short, slim profile ratchet will come in very handy here (something I wish I'd had). After you have disconnected the leads and removed the two mounting bolts, you should be able to wiggle the starter out from the underside. Installation of the starter is the exact reverse of this procedure. Good luck! ---- A minor note in addition. It took my a couple hours to figure this out, but the top bolt on the starter is opposite the bottom bolt. Because of the exhaust system is directly on top of the starter, there is no possible way you can get at the top bolt IF it were going the same direction as the bottom bolt. This means the top bolt is inserted toward the passenger side of car, and the bottom bolt is inserted toward the driver side. The bottom bolt is about an inch shorter than the top bolt, do not mix them up after removal. I was easily able to remove the top bolt with a 1/2 socket and drive with about 12" of socket extensions, I also had greater torque using the larger wrench. The bottom bolt should be easily removed if you follow the first set of instructions. When installing the starter, I put the bottom bolt in first, leaving an eighth of an inch loose, I then wiggled the starter while inserting the top bolt with my 12" of drive extensions until it caught the threads. * ** *** **** ***** hand tighten bolts with hand or with socket extension until you are forced to use a wrench to tighten the rest of the way!!!************ I hope this clarifies it for all you do-it-yourselfers. mounting bolts are a metric14mm

Simply pry up the seat cushin. There should be 2 clips holding it down. From there you have to take off th elittle side pice cushion on each side of the rear windows. It should be held on with one bolt on the very bottom.

Normally Red is constant, Yellow is Accessory, Black is Ground, blue is for antenna. Be sure to check those with a digital multimeter!... Speaker wires are a bit of a hassle but I found mine by using a 9 volt battery, go wire to wire til you heara "pop" Then determine which speaker is making the noise, those wires go to that speaker. The easiest way possible is to get a manual!

The hand held key system, the key, or somewhere in the driver side dashboard or on the inside driver door should be a button. Also if you have a number pad key-less entry on the outside driver door there are sometimes a second code for the trunk

See FOB PROG (Remote Keyless Entry Transmitter Programming) on page 2-29 of your "Owner's Manual", under Section 2: Features and Controls - Vehicle Customization Settings.....

wer is the starter in impala2000 Under the rear center of the engine

how do you adjust parking brake

== == I have a 06 Impala SS stock. My brother has a 96 Impala SS programed and exhaust. Both are black on black beauties. We raced last summer and here is how it went; We started off on his go, he punched it and hooked up pretty good, I had my window down and all I could hear was his flowmaster exhaust. When I saw the smoke rolling out of my front wheel wells I knew I better let off. By this time he was a few car lengths ahead of me, but by the time I hit 100 I was at his rear bumper. We ran out of road on the 1/2 mile or so race and haven't raced since. Oh and I had a passenger in my car. I anticipate that if both cars hook up well, the 96 takes 0-20 mph, and after that it's all history. That's ok though, the 06-09 generation would have been dissapointing if they didn't give it some juice. 94-96 impala's don't have to be faster, they look better!!

No, No, No, you can't just look at the horsepower, the 1996 had more than 25 ft-lbs more torque, and sounds so much better. Besides, I raced one in my '96 and I kicked butt.

The 96 Super Sport of course. Because of the fact that the 96 has an LT1. I don't think so the 96 ss (LT1) had 260 HP, over 500 lbs more wt. and did 0 - 60 in 7secs with a 15.4 quarter mile. The 2007 has less wt., 303 hp and does 0 -60 in 5.6 secs and runs quarter mile in 14.2 secs. the 06-09 impala ss's rape their lt1 siblings. the only thing that the LT1s have over the LS4s is RWD. at 4200lbs and 260HP, it cant beat a 3800lbs 303HP beast. and yes, i am right because i have a stock 08 SS with 150lbs of subs in the trunk, and i still beat a 96 SS with exhaust. so whoever said the first answer, sorry, but you are wrong.

Perhaps a bad fan resistor

Blown fuse, glass off the track or the cable that runs from the sunroof motor to the glass has busted.

06 impala ss, stock to stock.

You need to go to a car parts store, and get a repair manual for your car. They cost about $16.00 Or, go to a Public Library.

No, the 66 has the rectangular tail lights. 68 has round lights. I own a 66, but I prefer the 68 tail lights.

google Impala images.

First check your brake fluid level and if full you need to have the ABS wheel sensors checked out for a bad one.

I'd have to double check, but I believe the cam and crank timing marks are SUPPOSED to be pointing directly at each other to be on #1TDC. Just turn the crankshaft 360 degrees, back to TDC, then point the distributor at #1. You shouldn't need to change the timing chain adjustment.

First remove the Philips head screw and trim piece surrounding the door handle and lock. Next look under the "grab" handle used to close the door you should see 2 7mm bolts (they are hard to see without a flashlight) remove those. Now just start at the bottom and pull the panel away from the door.Once all of the platic push pins are out carefully lift up on the panel and it will be free. You didn't say if it has power windows or manual , if they are manual there is small c-clip behind the window crank handle that needs to be removed(try not to let the clip go flying it will be hard to find).

My father owns an early 65 with a 327 V8. The decals are on the valve covers.

Remove all front accessories from engine. Remove radiator. To make it easier later, rotate the engine until the distributor is at #1. Remember or mark where the rotor is pointing. Remove distributor. Remove intake. Loosen oil pan bolts. Remove fuel pump. Remove timing cover. Remove valve covers and loosen all rocker arm nuts. Remove push rods. Remove lifters. Remove cam gear and timing chain. Now pull cam from front of engine being careful not to damage the cam bearings in the engine. To install use a moly lube on the cam lobes and Lubriplate on the bearing journals. You always have to use new lifters with a new cam. Carefully slide in the cam. The timing chain gears will have marks....dots usually on one of the teeth. Line these up, with the chain installed, so that the cam gear is showing 6 o'clock and the crank gear is at 12. Bolt it to the cam. Now turn the crank until it is back at 12 but the cam is also at 12 instead of 6. This is #1 compression stroke. This will help you when you install the distributor. Install is reversal. There are procedures online for setting the rocker arms while the engine is cold. I know it sounds like a lot, but years ago when I did this several times a year I could do it in a couple of hours. It will take you considerably longer since you haven't done so before.

In 1972, I bought a 1972 Volkswagen beetle for $1,900.

The 2003 Chevrolet Impala wiper blade sizes are 22" wiper blades on both sides front. See sources and related links below for more information. Since there are over 22 different wiper arm attachments, do not buy wipers just by length only - be sure to lookup exact wiper blade part numbers by vehicle make, model and year for the brand wiper you decide to purchase. This ensures correct length AND correct attachment.

look in front of the gas tank along the frame on the drivers side.

No, the bolt pattern is different. They will not fit.

having all the required tools and spares available, no more than an hour

I have a 1995 Trooper. There are 3 screws that must first be removed: 1. Door handle 2. Rubber Handle 3. Rubber Handle. Take those 3 screws out then, with your hands pull the interior away from the door. There are some plastic thingies that will pop as you do this. Use care not to damage the wires on the entrance light like I did. You'll have to twist the door handle to fit through the square opening. Lift the panel away from the door and remove the power window switch. Unplug the power window switch and panel should be ready to set aside. Hope this helps!

Fuel pressure (ignition key turned to on, engine not running): 50 to 60 psi
