Technically, quite a while. You'll just find that your mileage goes down the drain. It will also eventually destroy the catalytic converter.
1. Remove the brake hose to caliper bolt from the brake caliper.
2. Remove the brake hose from the brake caliper.
3. Remove and discard the 2 copper brake hose gaskets. These gaskets may be stuck to the brake caliper and/or the brake hose end.
4. Cap or plug the opening in the brake caliper and the brake hose to prevent fluid loss and contamination.
5. Remove the 2 brake caliper pin bolts. Remove the park brake cable from the caliper.
6. Remove the brake caliper from the brake caliper bracket.
I have a 98 Malibu with a similar problem (hot engine stall). Let sit for 5 minutes and runs fine. Other posts have directed me to the TCC Solenoid and the Crankshaft Position Sensor. I will be unhooking the TCC Solenoid to see if this clears the problem. If so, then it will be replaced.
Low engine coolant--when you step on the gas water pump runs faster and is calling for more coolant--check level
take a close look at the lighter itself. It's 14 years old and might have a short-circuit in it. You can test that with resistance meter.
where is the electric power steering pump loca
ted on a 2005 chevy malibu 3.5 liter engine
Are you sure that it is infact the power steering pump? I myself have the same car and I thought it was the pump but, when I finaly looked at it...it turned out to be the hose! Anyways if it is the pump its pretty easy. I cant really tell you in detail but its down under the serpintin belt.
i have a 2000 Malibu. i have an inside the fuel tank pump, i don't know what u have, i would assume the same. if u have the same as mine, you have alot of work ahead of you. first, u need to use up almost all of your fuel, because you will have to take fuel tank down. 2 metal straps hold it up, u will need sockets and / or wrenches. you will have to disconnect a couple of fuel lines and a vent line, they are on top of tank, that's why you have to let it down. a cap on top u will have to unsrew it, then pull out pump, u may have to giggle back in forth to get it out. i bought a kit from auto zone and just replaced a couple of parts. you will need a floor jack to help you support the tank, its nice to have some help but u can do it alone. it can take several hours. hope this helps
Only plain water goes into the radiator.
The Above is Wrong
A mixture of Antifreeze and distilled water (some people even say de-ionized distilled water). The antifreeze bottle will tell the ratio to give specific freezing and boiling temperature of the fluid but for most of the U. S., half and half is fine. Check your owners manual or ask at the auto parts store for the type of antifreeze recommended for your car. There are different kinds.
Not sure this is the proper way, but seemed the easiest at the time. I turned my front wheels to the left to allow me to loosen the plastic wheel well cover. About 4 plastic plugs hold it into place. Then it was just a matter of reaching in and un-screwing the back of bulb, about a quarter of turn and it comes out. Then unlatch the plug that is pushed into the rear of bulb and remove it. Then take new bulb and slip it onto the wire plug. Then just insert the bulb into the housing and turn it quarter turn and that's it. I am sure there is another way, but I have not found it.
there is no dipstick on this car why i don't know but there is a 10mm nut on the side of trans u fill trans until fluid starts coming out that's how u know its full i don't know what genius @gm came up with this
If you are referring to an inertia switch for the fuel pump, no.
I have the same problem right now with my 2001 Malibu and I was told that when the ABS light came on, that the front wheel bearing are bad and need to be replaced. I live in Chicago and I was quoted a price of $300 because there is a ABS sensor on the wheel bearings.
You didn't state WHICH year. -They have been making Malibu's since about 1966 and I know the early versions would seat 5 passengers fairly comfortably . I had one ! The Malibus made now are smaller and wimpier than the Malibu of the 60's.
These lights have 2 different "lights" in each of them. This occurs frequently. Change out the bulb and everything will be working fine once again.
Depends.... If it had a straight 6 or a 2 barrel 283, no. If it had a 327, most likely, especially if it has the L-79 (350 HP 327) in it. The first truly fast Chevelle was the 1965 Z16.... It was the first time the 396 was installed in the Chevelle.
The OBD2 diagnostic should be under the steering columm area just under the dash
it sounds like you need to change the spark plugs and possibly the ignition wires
I have 98 Malibu 3.1. Miss-fire cyl #5 started in 2004. Changed spark plugs and wires replaced injector 5. Problem seemed to be gone. Came back couple years later. have replaced wires and plugs switched coils and still miss-fire #5. I live with problem. Never dies and clears up after 5-10 min. Happens when hot and sits for less than 1 hr.
The cylinder head
The cylinder head area is the area where coolant will boil first if coolant is present. The area directly above the combustion chamber will get hot first, which is the bottom area of the cylinder head. The old saying that heat rises is still true. Heated coolant will usually exit the upper radiator hose to the radiator and as coolant is cooled in the radiator, it will circulate down into the block where it will be heated again to repeat the cycle. The coolant pump present in most engines just helps this natural cycle.
