How do you read the trouble codes of a 1997 Geo Tracker?
with a scan tool, you can go to your local auto shop and they should scan the cars pcm for less than $30.00. or you can go to your local auto-zone and they will read it for free, but mind you it will not be that accurate and they can only read codes they cant clear them.
Why will a cracked head cause overheating?
The coolant is designed to exchange heat when pressurized. Lose the pressure and the coolant loses it's ablility to retain high temperatures. Of course you're loses the pressure through the crack in the head.
Why does the fuel injection fuse blow?
your injector is probably shorted internally. uncommon but not unheard of
for people who were not born in barns you may know this answer, those of you who were born in barns, yes the wires will short out when they are sitting on the engine block or even possibly by fair chance in hell the heater hoses rubbed them....but i highly doubt that would cause the fuse to blow. you may need to have an expert check your wiring system before you get in your car and start driving it around, if the fuel injection system blew then you may have a fairly good reason NOT to turn on the engine. rewiring may be what is needed.
check to make sure the wires in the connector at the back of the light to back sure they are all in tacked.
Can you use a Suzuki Samurai as a parts car for a Geo Tracker?
The Samurai is a completely different vehicle. Other than another Tracker you can use a Suzuki Sidekick for parts.
you didnt say years.
but there are some common parts.
and the sidekick has a bigger motor 1.6L and 1.8L and has 16v head on some.
the sammi is 1.3l. so that is not going to swap well but many have.
many people put 1.6L 16v motors and 2.0L motors in to sammi's
many, i have helped many.
not sure of your question at all since you gave no examples.
are you trying to swap driveline parts or body parts.?
Check the bulbs - maybe burned out
Check to see if there is a fuse in the poweer distribution box
better answer:
is car DLR , day light running ?
if yes , HL can fail for many reason, including brake alarms !
if not DRL.
then 2 bad HL, ( no i dont believe it) sorry?
the HL switch grounds the HIGH beams.
so pull the connector on column shaft the feeds the combo switch and put a ground wire on the colored pin that is RED.
Red white is lows.
RED is HIGHS.
your answer in 1 minute test.
if this fails the combo is bad or the ground to it is bad G200
How do you remove 60 amp main fuse under hood from a 94 Geo tracker?
Two screws hold the fuse block down. Remove those and then there are two screws, (one on each side of the fuse) that hold the fuse on. Once you do that, the fuse comes off.
Where is the mat sensor on a 92 Geo Tracker?
How do you disassemble the dashboard on a 1996 Geo Tracker?
Lots of screws, but mainly there's these bolts you have to take off. One of them is on the top of the dash, in the center near the windshield, you pop off that little square insert and there's the bolt.

Can you put a 1995 Geo Tracker engine into a 1997 Geo Tracker?
if they are both 16 -valve engines ,yes if one is 8-valve & the other is 16-valve, then short block only ANSWER: The '95 and '97 Trackers have different sensors and ECU's. The only way you could put a '95 engine in an '97 TRacker would be if you also had the ECU from the '95
Why does your 1994 Geo Tracker have no spark?
Hi, I'll take a stab at this. The most likely culprit that I can come up with if you've checked the normal stuff, (wires and connections, distributor cap and rotor) would be the ignitor. The ignitor is near the coil or in the distributor (carbuetor engines) Of course the ignition coil itself could be bad. I'll again say that I'm only taking a stab after going over the schematics that are in my Chiltons book. I certainly hope this helps and if anyone else has more, please add to this. Good luck. Steve H.
It's just a matter of removing the 6 hex bolts an pull it out. Then, grab the spare hubs and bolt them in. Yea, indeed all Suzuki hubs fit.
Can I put a V6 engine in my 95 Geo Tracker?
Yes you can, Infact, I converted my 95 Geo Tracker from a 4 Cyl to a 3.8 V6, It runs a little better, but in my opinion the 4 cyl was better on gas, but this does make it a beast in off-road conditions. I have thrown 20's on it, raised the suspension, but the v6 drops nicely in there, you may have to raise 6 inches to a foot to properly fit, otherwise, fair game. Goodluck!
Can you put a Turbo in a 95 Geo Tracker?
TYPE IN TURBO GEO TRACKER AND SEARCH AND THERE IT IS ALREADY BEEN DONE BUT ON A FOURWHEEL DRIVE. IF UR LIKE ME THEN U ASK THIS QUESTION WITH RACING IN MIND. EVER PLAYED GRAND TURISMO? IF SO THEN U R FAMILIAR WITH THE ESCUDO PIKES PEAK CAR? ESCUDO AS I LEARNED IS ANOTHER WORD FOR TRACKER? ONLY DIFFERENCE IS ESCUDO HAS A V6 AND TRACKERS USUALLY COME WITH A 88HP 1.6 LITER ENGINE BUT DONT WORRY IN THE MID 1980S FORMULA ONE CARS WERE MAKIN 1500HP OUT OF 1.5LITER MOTORS FROM NO NAME COMPANIES, HONDA RECONIZES THIS FACT. ITS WERE I LEARNED ABOUT IT. HONDA SALES BOOKLET, THE CARS WERE WAY TO FAST AND STARTED TO FLY LITERALY SO THEN CAME BOOST RESTRICTION. HP CAME DOWN AND SO DID THE CARS. U CAN EASILY TURBO UR GEO BUT HERES WHAT ID TRY. A STOCK GEO STORM GSI IS DUAL OVERHEAD CAM 160HP ENGINE THAT IS VERY QUICK. HOW DO I KNOW? ONE NIGHT AFTER WORK A BOY WANTED TO RACE MY 87 300Z NON TURBO AGAINST HIS GEO. SURE I SAID THINKIN ID SMOKE HIM. TO MY SURPRISE THE FIRST RACE I SPUN ALOT OUT THE HOLE BUT HE GOT ME BY A 1/2 CAR LENTH. 2ND RACE I ONLY BEAT HIM BY THE SAME. AFTER CHECKIN ON HP NUMBERS WE BOTH HAD THE SAME HP BUT IHAD A LIL MORE TORQUE STILL, HAD TO GIVE PROPS. NOW WITH THAT IN MIND, AND OWNING A 95 TRACKER I ALWAYS WANTED TO KNOW IF THE STORM GSI FRONT WHEEL DRIVE WOULD BOLT UP TO A TRACKER TRANNY IF SO IT WOULD BE LIKE DOULBLIN UR HP AND WITH THE TRACKERS 5.13 REAREND GEAR WOULD BE ALOT FASTER THAN A STORM GSI. UNEDUCATED WHITEBOY IN KY SAYS, GREAT MINDS THINK ABOUT GOIN FASTER!
How much to fix the timing belt on 92 GEO tracker?
When you replace the timing belt you should replace the water pump and tensioner pulley as well. It may save you in labor costs down the road. But, all together it is about $500.
Where is the throttle position sensor on a 1995 Geo Tracker?
The throttle position sensor, otherwise known as a TPS, is located directly across the otherside/opposite side of the throttle body where the gas pedal cable connects to the throttlebody. They usually have 3 wires and are round black plastic items.
Where are the timing marks for a 1995 Geo Tracker?
Is there no one out there who has an answer to this question? I have the same problem and have just spent 3 hours on the web without a result. We've replace the motor in a 95 sidekick with a motor from a 95 geo tracker and need to know. Someone told us the cam is different between the suzuki and the GM. I'm assumming you are just trying to time engine that is already together and not aligning cam and crank sprockets. There is a little notch in crank pulley just put some white paint on it and do your timing. Hope this helped.
How do you replace a headlight on a 1997 Geo Tracker?
Hi, If you're talking about the bulb, all you do is turn the locking ring/cap and gently pull the bulb out from the back. Remove the bulb and replace (don't touch the bulb with your fingers) with a new 9004 bulb. When you remove the bulb, be careful not to lose the wave washer if your requires one ( those made in Canada require a wave washer). If your locking cap is just loose and doesn't lock tightly, then you most likely need the wave washer available from your local Suzuki dealer. I tried GM and they said there were none in the country so I went to my Suzuki dealer. Part # 35177-60AB0 about $3.53. If it's the entire headlight assy then start by removing the bulb. The rest of the assy looks as if you need to remove the grill first to get at some screws and be able to remove and reinstall the assy. I've gone out to mine and looked this over. There are some screws on the inside of the engine area, well at least under the hood at the headlight assy. It looks to be a rather straightforward removal and installation. I just would look for prts at a salvage yard (junkyard) or whatever they call it in your area, even auto reclamation area, they all do the same thing. You may have to remove it yourself or they may do it, I've found it varies but I've been able to re-equip my '97 with quite a few things that way. E-Bay is the other place for a complete headlight assy, just try and not pay too much if you go that way. I've also replaced my bulbs (9004) with the Sylvania Ultra and love them, again, just be careful and not touch them. If you get body oil or a fingerprint on a halogen bulb, the bulb gets hotter at the place where you touch it. The light pattern is not correct and the life of the bulb is shortened because it burns hotter at that point and can dramaticly shoten the bulb life. Well, good luck and I hope this helps if you haven't already done all this. Steve H.
Anyone have a wiring diagram for a 1995 Geo Tracker?
I have a tracker and the original manual but I don't know if that will help you. rjfbrand@aol.com
I have one from Mitchell Repair and also have one from Haynes Manual. jdauksz1@charter.net
here are the drawings for 89-96.
on the things that make the motor run.

say what you want , exactly , what parts of the circuits.
in the public lib. is a think called e-sources, + auto repairs. bingo. free.
all other sources what money.

If the head is warped the head gasket will not seal until you have the head machined. It must be perfectly flat before the head will seal to the gasket.
